Subsequently, question is, how do you make ripped jeans last longer? Simply turn the jeans inside out and place them under the sun for few hours if you want to have them sanitized; if you really can’t stand not washing them, then only gently hand-wash them with plain water.

How do you fix ripped jeans without patches?
Turn the jeans inside out and cut the excess threads away from the tear. Match your thread to the color of the jeans. Pin the tear together, leaving just enough overlap to sew through securely.
