How to Prevent Holes from Appearing

Here are some simple tips to help prevent holes from ruining your clothes:

• If you notice holes at the bottom of your shirts, it might be due to belt buckles rubbing against the fabric. Consider going beltless, adjusting the belt’s position regularly, or smoothing any rough edges with sandpaper.
• If you tuck your shirts into jeans, the holes could be caused by the zipper. Zippers can also damage clothing in the washing machine. To prevent this, always zip up your jeans, hoodies, and other garments before washing them. It’s also a good idea to close bras before washing to prevent metal clasps from snagging onto other clothing. Using a washing bag can keep bras separate, especially if they tend to unclasp during washing.
• Overloading the washing machine can cause holes in your clothes. Remember to turn items with beads, buttons, or other decorations inside out before washing. Additionally, keep delicate materials like cotton and silk separate from sturdier pieces like sheets and towels. For delicate items, opt for a gentle spin cycle.
