Many different people mean many different kinds of advice. Especially when it comes to denim advice. Giving the right advice relates a lot to personal preferences. Experiences that people gain through time, while it's wearing a certain pair of jeans or a brand. But also about their own experiences when it comes to a denim retailer. Going to an experienced denim retailer means a lot these days as advice is key when buying a new pair of jeans. Well-trained store staff knows all the ins and outs of the denim industry, but above all, what’s they exactly sell in their store. When it comes to jeans fits, you must be a sort of denim doctor to know just in the blink of an eye what kind of jeans fit works the best for a certain body type for example. You don’t want that a customer need to try on 10 pairs of jeans to get the right one. Experience is important to get the right jeans quickly for someone. And training from denim brands to know everything about a certain brand in detail such as fit, fabric, key features, and the story that is attached to a brand or collection. If you imagine entering a denim store, what kind of advice would you get? Or at least, what kind of advice are you hoping for that you would receive when standing in front of a huge denim wall with countless of options to pick your new favorite pair? It’s good to go shopping when you’re informed quite well upfront by yourself, so let’s sum up a few of the questions that are coming along when asking ‘What’s the best advice you can get before making the right decision for your new purchase?’’.

The start of giving the right advice

Actually, the first step would be what’s your budget for your new pair of jeans. When you have set the budget, you know what type of retailers you can visit. In the end, it's better to maybe spend a little bit extra to get more quality. A better-made pair of jeans means that they will have a longer lifetime, most of the time. This is a more durable and sustainable approach to shopping. Less is better, so buy less, but better. In the end, you can only wear one pair of jeans at a time. And you don’t want to get rips and tears very quickly. So, check first your budget, then where you can buy the best for that amount.

Get the right fit

Then, selecting a pair of jeans starts with picking the right fit. A fit is key as a good pair of jeans fits like a glove around your body. A well-trained store staff or person what would you to focus on the fit first? Then you can select a certain wash of your jeans. Are you going for a very dark denim fabric, or a bright light version? Do you want to have a clean look or distressed? After these decision rounds, its all about the sizing. Buying a pair of jeans means also buying the right size. You must not buy your jeans too tight, but also not too loose. This links of course how you prefer to wear your jeans in the end. When you decide which pair of jeans will be the winner of the store for you, you start wearing it. Some pairs needs more time to ‘break it in’, like unwashed jeans for example. This kind of jeans needs time. Each day they will shape more and more onto your body type, while a pre-washed pair of jeans would fit perfectly from day one. Still, each pair would feel more comfortable day after day. So it's good to know upfront what to expect from a certain pair. Another piece of advice that you would like to get from the denim store or friend that recommends a certain brand or fit.

Know when and how to wash it

When you wear your jeans very often, there will be a point when you need to clean it. Washing your pair is the most common way to really get it fresh. But, some people still think that you need to wash your jeans after one wear day. This isn’t the case actually. You need to wash it when it's dirty. Even with a smelly pair after an evening out in a cafe, it's better to hang out your jeans for a while in your garden or balcony. This is to make sure the lifespan of your jeans will last the longest. When you wash it too quickly each time it will ruin the fabric in the end. And when it's time for a refreshment, always turn your jeans inside out, using luke cold water, no soap with bleach or whatever, and hang-dry your jeans outside instead of putting them into the dryer. Of course, many more advices can be shared with you, but let’s see these advices here above as a good starting point to select your new best jeans. Your future pair will go with you on many new adventures to come!
