Todds Pants with Creases

Probably a silly question, has anyone had any problems with the dry cleaners pressing creases? In the past I had a few dress slacks that didn't have straight creases, for example not centered.

Yes! My wested have this horrible crease that's off center! I'm thinking I'll never have my Todds dry cleaned they're for costume purpose anyways. Also I think I'll stick to the freezer method for killing bacteria. IF I wore these pants (everyday) more I think I would have them dry cleaned for sure.

Whoever came up with freezing as a method for killing bacteria missed their basic junior high science class.

Freezing doesn't kill most biotics. It just stops their multiplication. As soon as they thaw, they're off to the races again. The freezing thing does nothing except make you look silly putting clothes in the freezer.

You either wash your pants, or live with your new microscopic friends. Freezing is a horrible wives tale.

As far I can recall, Indy's pants are without creases in all of the films. :H:

Here's some pics: http://www.indygear.com/igpants.html

Perhaps you are using these pants for something other than Indy pants?

Yes - one pair for dress with suspenders - another pair without crease (Indy style).

I was thinking the same thing. I want to use them for some everyday pants.

I always thought that was a myth, but this piece made me think that there might be some truth to it. It's hardly a scientific study and for all I know freezing played a very small part in it, if at all. Maybe the freezing kept the bacteria at the same levels.

Sounds like Adam and Jamie have another Mythbusters episode in the making.
