Freezing only kills some bacteria, it mostly just slows the rate of reproduction.

just wash your jeans! its highly unlikely you will be able to fade a stunning pair of jeans anyway w/o washing often anyway so all these techniques to de-fart your jeans in the attempt to get more "natural" fades is pointless. natural wear comes from wearing them and clean when dirty or after 500 farts (whichever comes first), which is about every month to month and a half (depending on the person).

Freezing doesn't kill any bacteria, it just tends to eliminate odors.

This is the post I've been waiting for. For people of a certain age, the idea of not washing your clothes (ever) seems bizarre, to say the least. I thought this might have been an April Fool's day joke.

Don't wash them, it rinses out the ball sweat pheromones.
