| Video Discription | Iron your pants like a PRO: https://gentl.mn/2HvmyD5 How to iron pants? It all starts with a prep work. Invest into a sleeve board with a wider end and a slimmer end. A spray bottle, a cloth as well as a clapper which is a wooden block. You can add a tailor's ham which looks like a cushion but is actually filled with sawdust. You can also invest in a Teflon under sole and that way you don't have to use the cloth. Steps in ironing pants: Start with the top part of the trousers which is also known as the rise. For best pants ironing results you want to iron as few layers as possible. If you just have an iron board use the waist of your pants and pull it over the board. When you get little waves in the fabric, you have to constantly stretch with your left hand when you iron with your right. If you want to make it easier on yourself and get even better results use a sleeve board because that helps to drape things around. You can use a tailor's ham that has a rounded shape just like your body. If you have pleated pants you want the creases to be really sharp. To achieve that you want to use a clapper. If you're concerned about ending up with shiny trousers always add a damp cloth in between. Once I've made my way around ironing one pant leg, pull over the other one and finish all the way around. The areas on your belt loops, just iron it with the tip. Lift your iron many times and don't have continuous motions. Once your done with the top part of the pants it's time for the legs. Lay down the pants with the hems facing the iron. Try to find the existing crease and iron over it again. Make sure the bottom layer of the pant leg is laid as flat as possible. Use a damp cloth and a regular iron or if you have a professional iron you can just use a Teflon sole without the cloth. Once done with the front pleat of the pant leg, Iron the middle part of the pants very carefully. Once done and everything is flat look at the back crease. Use the same steps, iron and press then clap. Once done with a pant leg, unroll the top layer and flip the pants around and repeat the procedure. Iron the front pleat of the other pant leg. Depending on where it's sewn inward or outward. Cotton is much more prone to wrinkling than wool and because of that it's harder to iron especially as a pair of pants. It's more difficult to iron a dry pair of cotton pants instead of a wet one. You don't want it to be too wet and if you have a dry pair of pants simply spray it with water put it in a plastic bag for 10-15 minutes and then iron. What do you do if your pants do not have pleats but you want them? There must be enough fabric because pleats use up more fabric than flat front pants. If there's enough fabric, fold the pants based on the hem. Line up the inside side seams of the pant legs with one another on each pant leg and that gives you a very good idea of where the crease has to be. Ideally you want it in the middle of the front kneecap. The steps are the same. First, lay out the pants. Fold up one pant leg and start ironing the front crease. If your pants have cuffs, press those and get the pleat in there too. If you encounter a wrinkle, either spray the fabric directly or spread a damp cloth and then go through with your iron. Make sure to stay on there longer so the water can evaporate, create steam and release the wrinkle or crease. If the crease is just in a small area, I suggest to try to use your sleeve board to get to it so you can iron one layer and not two. If you have a regular ironing board, do not to over steam otherwise it will get ripples and wavy areas on the other side of the pants. You don't have to worry about that if you have a vacuum board because it sucks away all that moist there. Bear in mind that thicker fabrics are easier to iron than very thin and flimsy ones. So when you start try to use a thicker wool fabric. Once you've mastered that you can move on to the thinner fabrics that are much more prone to wrinkles. While the crease is relatively easy to achieve on a thin flimsy fabric the middle part of the leg is very hard to iron. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Want to stay updated?
