Soften white denim fabric ?

Question

I have a white denim jacket.  The fabric is stiff.  Washed with vinegar rinse and fabric softener in dryer.  Didn't do much.  Suggestions to soften the jacket?  Thanks Hometalkers.

Did you let the jacket soak in vinegar (as in, overnight)? That gives it time to work its magic! Other ways I've heard about are using steam (as in, a steam cleaner if you have one).

Keep run it though the machine - scrunch it up a few times

Old fashioned method, but still works: wash wet jacket on an old fashioned wash board or clean rocks. I know it sounds silly, but it does work.

thank you all. I found a recipe for DIY fabric softener on line: hair conditioner and white vinegar. thanks Suebea; I'll give your idea a try. If that doesn't do it, I try the other suggestions. Thank you all.
