Washing
If your kids jeans is dark in color, then it will have a tendency to attract lint while washing. Thus, wash lint producing items separately. In case of light colored jeans, it is better to wash it with the whites, to prevent the light jeans from getting dyed. Another tip is to wash light colors in hot water and dark colors in cold water. Repeated washing in very short intervals is not good for the jeans. It is made of cotton and too many washes can loosen the fabric.
Drying
Hanging the washed jeans and letting them dry naturally extends its shelf life. The dryer option is convenient but the heat generated wears the fabric off. But natural drying is not always feasible. Use the dryer but check its capacity and make sure not to overload it.
Storing
Do not pile unwashed clothes with your kids skinny jeans. Make sure to store them in a clean and dry place. Regularly check your closets for moths. Cedar chips are a great way to prevent moths but make sure you replace them every season. As much as possible try to hang the kids skinny jeans instead of folding them.
