Soften white denim fabric ?
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.

- Andraon Apr 27, 2018Did 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).HelpfulReply
