We've been starching jeans for Austin since 1987. In the video, one of our team explains why people ask for it.
Starch is made to give fabric stiffness. On jeans it gives that sharp, pressed, structured look and a crease that holds.
Ranchers and cowboys have always liked starched jeans, and plenty of Texans still ask for them for work and for going out.
When you get your clothes starched you can get many wears out of them: up to about ten times for pants and three to five times for shirts, depending on how you wear them.
Bring your jeans to any Rick's location and ask for starch. Most garments are dry cleaned for $5.99, and pants are listed at $5.99 on our pricing page.
