[quote=Anonymous]NP and chiming in to say I’ve had this issue for years with dark wash blue and black jeans, from Lucky Brand to recently purchased cheap D Jeans from TJ Maxx. I am always buying black jeans as a work wardrobe staple. Recently bought D Jeans ($17) because I love the fit and these are very comfortable. I’ve now washed and worn these 3x and the smell has finally subsided; -washed in cold/delicate (inside out) with white vinegar rinse. Tossed in dryer with 2 dryer sheets. Smell remained. -repeated above but added small scoop of Borax booster and lined dried - outside. -washed in delicate/cold but used a lavender scented liquid detergent (for delicates) and dried in dryer w/ bounce sheet until damp. Line dried outside. I know this seems like a lot but I do laundry all the time -and am nearly obsessed w/ clothing care. I see it as a challenge.[/quote]
