An apron can serve as an extra layer of protection.
3. Wash more gently.
Delicate T-shirts can be washed using a suitable delicate cycle and a low spin speed. Laundry bags can also protect delicate garments from mechanical damage. (Houzz)
4. Check the buttons and zippers on your trousers.
Sharp edges or protruding parts can repeatedly stress the fabric in the same spot. Therefore, close the zippers before washing.
5. Pay attention to the pattern
The most important step is to observe carefully when the holes appear.
Does it only occur with certain trousers? Only with shirts made of thin fabric? Only after car rides? Or mainly after working in the kitchen?
Such a pattern can help to determine the actual cause.
Small holes are often the result of various factors.
There is likely no single explanation that applies to every damaged T-shirt. Experience with this problem points to diverse possible causes – from belts and trouser buttons to countertops, washing machines, and delicate fabrics. (BabyMac)
It is therefore perhaps wiser to look for repeated friction in a specific spot, instead of immediately blaming the washing machine or clothes moths.
Conclusion:
Those mysterious little holes in T-shirts often appear precisely in the places where the fabric experiences the most friction in daily life. Belt buckles, trouser buttons, kitchen countertops, or seatbelts can all be causes.
It is particularly noticeable if the holes repeatedly appear in the lower front section. In that case, it is worth taking a closer look at the contact points between the clothing, the waistband, and the various surfaces.
