Pants, Jeans and Shorts

As a rule of thumb, clean your tailored pants every second to third wearing. More casual pants could use a more frequent cleaning. Brush them in between cleanings.
 

Hanging pants Use hangers specially made for pants. And hang them with empty pockets and no belt.   To hang your pants, crease them at the center front and center back and hang them from the bottom — not from the waistband. If you use a double-barred hanger, be sure that they are placed in the center of the hanger so they don't "travel" to one side or the other which causes wrinkles. Also (don't laugh) hang them above the knees. Hanging them right at the knees causes more wear at an already heavily worn spot.   If you need to re-crease your pants for hanging, find the center front and back by laying the side seams one-on-top-of-the-other, so they are aligned. The creases that form will be the center front and center back.   If you hang two pair on a hanger, distribute them across the bar, and hang them in opposite directions.	Pressing pants Press one leg at a time. Pressing one leg on top of the other may be quicker, but you will get "iron shine."   Use a press cloth and a spray water bottle. These two combined will go even further to combat "iron shine."   Spray the cloth and lay it over a portion of the pant leg.  Place the iron on the cloth, and move it to press the pant area beneath the cloth. When you do this, steam will rise, which is good, and means that your pants are getting a nice firm crease.  You might want to peer under the cloth at this point Ñ to make sure you aren't creating unwanted creases by bunching the fabric underneath.  Then continue down the legs, and over the other pant areas using this same method.   Look over your pants after completing just one side of each leg. Most likely you will find that the pressing you have done has taken care of both sides, and your chore is completed.
