How To Rip Jeans



Click On Pic To Enlarge

Ripped jeans/clothing has been around for a while now , but somehow i can never get myself to pay for them  . Since it can be so easily done. 

Things required 

  • An old pair of jeans is good to start of with .
  • Sand Paper (higher the number better  )
  • Small wooden plank
Place the wooden plank beneath the area you intend to shred and sand paper along the edges .This gives a very naturally ripped look , after finishing wash the jeans inside out .


To rip pockets , place coins inside and sandpaper .


It's convenient to use sand paper as you can shred them to different degree's ,you can easily rip it off completely or make it look like it's worn out or just started to rip look .

    you can also use a paper knife. scribble with the tipp of the knife over the area you want to rip.. keep on scribbling till you get a tiny hole. catch it and rip it apart..
    thats how i rip my jeans!

    @Koshy : I didn't want to rip them by hand coz i wanted it look like it's worn out , but maybe i should try

    @Asha: I had a bunch of sand papers of different numbers , but i used a 14 ,Use anything thats coarse
