Caring for Your Dreifeder Jeans & Tees – The Right Way

Hey there!

Let’s be honest – few things get put to the test as much as your kid’s jeans. Whether it’s mud battles in the garden, climbing adventures at the playground, or the classic “let me rub against the dirtiest fence in town,” children’s jeans really go through it all.

Luckily, ours are built for exactly that – tough, comfy, and stylish.
But wait! To keep them looking as awesome as they did on day one, even after countless adventures, there are a few washing tips you should follow.

And since every cool outfit needs the perfect tee to match, we’ll throw in our top care tips for Dreifeder T-shirts too. Don’t worry – we’ve got you! And who knows, laundry might even become... fun?

The Cool Parent Checklist:

1. Empty those pockets – what might be hiding in there?
Before those jeans take a ride in the washing machine, better take a peek inside the pockets. Who knows what little treasures are lurking? From mysterious pebbles and candy wrappers to half-eaten granola bars – we've seen it all. So do a quick pocket check before your washer turns into a treasure chest.

2. Button up, zip up – safety first!
Pockets are clear – almost done prepping. But not quite! Make sure to fasten buttons and zip up zippers. Why? Because open zippers can snag other clothes and loose buttons might go on an unexpected journey. A tiny step for you, a big win for your laundry.

3. Inside out, baby!
Nope, not a dance move – just the golden rule of washing clothes. Turn jeans inside out before tossing them in the machine. It helps preserve colour and protects the outer fabric from friction.

4. T-shirts: Protect the story prints!
Same goes for our tees – always wash them inside out. That way, those awesome prints stay intact. Let’s be honest: just like the grass stains on jeans, the prints on shirts tell stories. And we want to keep those stories going!

5. The right temperature:
This is where it counts. Dreifeder clothes are built to last, but wash them at 30°C max. That’s all they need. After all, those scuffs, tears and stains are a kind of diary – no need to wash away the memories!

6. Gentle cycle – like you after a long day:
The gentle cycle is like a mini spa treatment for your clothes. Fewer spins = less stress on the fabric. And after a wild day, that’s exactly what those fibres need.

7. No fabric softener, please!
Keep the softener on the shelf! It can weaken the fibres, and that’s not what our adventure-ready jeans and tees need. Dreifeder clothes are made for the wild, not the sofa.

8. Air dry – the natural way:
Tumble dryers? A big no-no! Heat can damage the stretch and shape. Hang jeans and tees to dry naturally. Bonus tip: hang tees flat or from the neckline to keep their shape. Jeans are best hung from the waistband.

9. Ironing? Sure – just not the print!
If you’re feeling fancy and want to iron the T-shirt, please, please don’t iron the print! Either turn it inside out or place a cloth over it to protect the design. Because nothing’s sadder than a crumbled feather or a faded crab.

Bonus Tip for Super Parents: See stains as trophies.
Let’s be real: stains on kids’ jeans aren’t just normal – they’re proof of a life well-lived! Grass smudges, mud streaks and mystery splatters all tell a story. So instead of stressing, grab a coffee, sit down, and admire those marks for what they are – memories. If you do want to tackle a stain, just treat it with a bit of gall soap before washing.

Bottom line:
Follow these simple tips and Dreifeder clothes will stay beautiful – and ready for many more adventures. So don’t fear the mud and grass. With these jeans and tees, you’re fully equipped. And now you know how to wash them the right way and keep your cool.
Here’s to the next stain – and the stories it’ll tell.
