Check out this surprising video on how to wash jeans!<\/h2>\n<p>When asked about the best way to wash jeans, <a href=\"http:\/\/cleantechnica.com\/2012\/10\/19\/levi-strauss-using-reycled-plastic-in-latest-denim-collection\/\" target=\"_blank\">Levi&#8217;s<\/a> CEO Chip Bergh had some interesting advice: don&#8217;t do it.<\/p>\n<p>Wait, what?<\/p>\n<p>Lazy people, rejoice! The best way to wash your jeans may be not to wash them at all. Washing fades the color and wears the fabric of your favorite pair of blues, but Bergh says that he hasn&#8217;t washed his favorite pair of jeans in a year.<\/p>\n<p>Does that sound super gross?<\/p>\n<p>This guy is no crunchy hippie, you guys.
