I bought a new pair of expensive and high quality jeans. The wash is a semi-dark with some fading in the front. My other jeans usually wash to a brighter blue that I don't like. I want to keep the color of my new jeans forever! How can I do it? Washing inside-out is not good enough. I hear washing in vinegar is good? Does it work? Does it mess up the quality and softness of the jeans? How much vinegar should I use?

From momsbudget.com:
When you buy a new pair of dark blue jeans - or are wanting to prevent an older pair from fading any more than it already has, simply add 1-3 tablespoons of salt into the washing machine when you wash the jeans, adjusting the amount of salt depending on the size of the laundry load.

I'd just wash them on a gentle or medium cycle in cold water and inside out. Also, I never put my denim in the dryer! It fades them A LOT faster I think.

White vinegar is meant to provide up clothing from fading. I appeared it up and it suggested to function a cup of vinegar to the showering gadget, a tablespoon could be lots nevertheless. additionally turn your clothing interior out and constantly wash dark colorings jointly, and circumvent putting them interior the dryer or sunlight.
