How do you rip jeans without ruining them?
Ripping jeans can be quite tricky because they are usually very thin and stretchy. They tend to wear out before long. The usual way to rip jeans would be to cut them at the bottom and then pull them apart. But you should know that this method might damage your jeans.
There are other ways to rip jeans. Some specialized rippers let you tear jeans easily. Some even come with built-in tools such as scissors and blades so that you don’t have to worry about damaging your pants.
What Makes Ripped Jeans Stylish?
The best thing about ripped jeans is that it makes your legs look longer. This is because when you’re wearing a pair of skinny jeans, your knees will stick close together while your calves appear much longer.
However, if you want to get ripped jeans, you need to make sure you use the right kind of machine. For example, there’s no point using a jean cutter if you’re not going for a ripped look, but a regular cutting machine will work fine for that purpose.
How to Rip Your Own Jeans
1. Find a place where there isn’t any traffic or people around. This is good for two reasons: 1) when you’re ripping, you’ll more likely be able to concentrate. 2) you won’t get distracted by anyone else’s reactions to what you’re doing.
2. Pull up your pant leg (or off if it’s a dress). You may want to tie back your pants, especially if they have elastic bands in them, to keep them from falling.
3. Take the pocket off of one side of the front of your pant leg. Then take off the inside pocket and the side pockets.
4. Next take the top part of the waistband, which will give you an access point through which to use your tool later.
5. Now remove the rest of the garment. It should slide right over your body thanks to its design.
6. When removing the garment, make sure not to leave any loose fabric behind. If you’ve got something hanging out there, it could catch on clothing or furniture while ripping.
7. Once done, lay the ripped piece flat against the floor (or whatever surface you used), away from anything breakable, and put the pieces into place until they feel comfortable.
8. Use the appropriate tool for your job. Scissors/a knife will work great for cutting things. A rotary cutter works well for cutting fabric. If you plan to sew, make sure to buy a sewing machine that comes with a straightedge ruler. Without one, you’d probably ruin your clothes and have a hard time keeping track of where the stitches are going.
Conclusion
Tearing jeans is easy but it takes some practice, patience, and a nice pair of jeans. Once you start practicing, you’ll notice how much easier it is to rip a new set of jeans than to repair the old ones. So go ahead and rip those jeans!
