Wash in cold, don't use the dryer, at least with jeans. I have 2 pairs that I wash like this so they always look new. 2 years on and they dont have so much as a frayed edge.

My mama used something similar looking to line dry my daddy’s jeans that he wore as a fireman. https://www.lehmans.com/product/pants-stretcher-two-pairs/ It kept my mama from having to iron them.

Yeah good advice, I’ve been off driers for a couple years now and find it helps. Any product recommendations in terms of washing liquid or conditioner?

I use the chesp shit. Arm & Hammer detergent and dryer sheets, nothing special otherwise.
