White denim is bold. Beautiful. And, yes, occasionally risky—especially around toddlers, coffee, or anything saucy. But don’t worry. These overalls are made to live life in. Here’s how to keep them looking fresh without losing their soul.

Washing Basics:

• Cold wash, gentle cycle. Flip them inside out to protect the stitching and hardware.
• Mild detergent only. Avoid bleach—unless absolutely necessary. (See “Wait—Can I Use Bleach?” below).
• Hang dry. Keep them out of the dryer to preserve the shape, strength, and structure. Sunlight helps brighten naturally.
  
  

Stain Prevention:

• Wear an apron while cooking or wrangling ketchup. Yes, even over your overalls.
• Spot treat immediately. The sooner, the better—especially with things like oil, wine, or mystery juice.
• Rotate wear. Give your overalls rest days (they’re holy inspired, but not invincible).

For Natural Care:

• Baking soda paste (baking soda + water): Rub on the stain, let sit 30 minutes, rinse well.
• Lemon juice + sunlight: Nature’s bleach. Works best on fresh stains and sunny days.
• White vinegar soak: One part vinegar, two parts water = stain-lifting magic.
• Hydrogen peroxide (for stubborn stuff): Dab gently with a Q-tip. Don’t go wild

Wait—Can I Use Bleach?

If absolutely necessary, yes. Bleach won’t hurt either of the patches, but it will wear down the denim over time. Use it like Texas hot sauce in the summer: rarely, sparingly, and only if you know what you’re doing.

Grace Note

Don’t stress every mark. These are clothes made for life—not perfection. A little wear adds character—and that’s where the real beauty shows up.
