Read on to get detailed information about washing and dry-cleaning corporate pants. 

Different Ways of Washing Corporate Trousers or Pants:

1. Use a washing machine

1a. Check the material of the pants

Before you toss the pants into the washing machine, you need to check the fabric of the pants. If the fabric is cotton, polyester, or wool, then use a washing machine. On the other hand, if the fabric is silk, wool, or delicate cotton, it is better to hand wash the trousers. 

1b. Turn the pants inside out

Wash the pants inside out so that the buttons and zippers do not snap during the rinsing stage inside the machine. Turning the pants inside out while washing also prevents fading and color bleeding. 

1c. Wash the pants in cold water in a gentle cycle

Rinse the pants in cold water with a few tablespoons of mild detergent powder. Set the washing machine to a gentle cycle to prevent excessive twists and turns. Remove the pants from the washing machine and hang them out to dry. 

2. Hand-wash the pants

2a. Wash in cold water with mild detergent

Fill the laundry sink with cold water and stir in a few tablespoons of mild detergent powder. Place the pants in the water and wait for them to get soaked.

2b. Soak the trousers in water

Turn the trousers inside out and then soak them in soapy water. Scrub the pants thoroughly with water to get rid of the grime and dirt. 

2c. Refill the laundry basin with fresh water

Drain out the dirty soap water and fill the basin with fresh water. Wash the pants in fresh water to get rid of the soap suds. Throw out the soapy water and re-wash the trousers in fresh water until they are completely clean.

3. Dry the trousers

3a. Use a tumble dryer

Switch on the spin cycle of the tumble dryer to get rid of the dampness of the pants. Place a dry towel in the tumble dryer to absorb the water from the pants and render them completely dry.

3b. Air dry the pants

The air-drying method is pretty simple. Roll the pair of wet pants with a soft dry towel. Squeeze the rolled pants gently to get rid of the water. Alternatively, you may also hang the pair of pants in the air to dry. Don’t forget to use clips when you hang the trousers out to dry. 

3c. Dry out the pants with a hair dryer

Use a hair dryer to get rid of the moisture quickly. Apply the heat of the hair dryer to the damp parts of the pants to get rid of the moisture and render the parts completely dry. 

4. Iron the pants

4a. Check the tag

Most trousers of good brands come with tags that provide instructions regarding the washing and ironing of the pants. Check the tag information and iron the pants accordingly. 

4b. Use the flat iron board

Lay the pants on a flat iron board for the effective removal of the lines, folds, creases, and wrinkles. Iron the pants by gliding the steam iron gently along with the pants.

4c. Don’t forget to iron the pockets

Pull the pockets inside out and iron them gently in order to remove the creases. Ironing the pockets at the very beginning prevents additional wrinkles. 

5. Fold the pants and store them neatly

5a. Let the pants cool down

Don’t put the trousers in the wardrobe immediately after steam ironing them. Instead, let the trousers cool down and then tuck them neatly into the wardrobe

5b. Fold the pants or hang them in the wardrobe

If you use hangers then you can hang the pants in the wardrobe. Otherwise, you can fold the pants and store them in a neat pile if the closet space is limited.
