Troubleshooting
Trousers appear wrinkled after washing
Gently shake out the trousers after washing and hang them to dry. Iron on a low heat setting while slightly damp. Consider a fabric steamer for quicker wrinkle removal.
Elastic waist feels too tight or too loose
The elastic waist is designed for a comfortable fit. If it feels off, ensure you have selected the correct size. For minor adjustments, consider consulting a tailor for elastic replacement or alteration.
Pinstripes seem to fade after multiple washes
Always wash on a cold, gentle cycle with similar colours. Avoid harsh detergents and excessive agitation. Air drying instead of tumble drying can also help preserve colour.
