Washing jeans without turning them inside out can lead to fading and abrading of the fabric on the outside. The outer layer, especially if it has dark coloring, might lose its vibrant color more quickly due to friction with other clothes and the washing machine drum. Always wash jeans inside out to preserve their color and extend their lifespan.
