Recently, some have advocated freezing clothing, particularly blue jeans, instead of washing them to conserve water.

Assuming this works to some extent, can it be done during the Nine Days? Can I wear freshly frozen jeans during the Nine Days if they were frozen beforehand?

@SethJ No it's a real question. It's just funny. – Double AA♦ Jul 20 '12 at 3:19
@SethJ I know there is discussion in the gemara already about launderings of different quality (Bavel vs Israel or something) and there is discussion about which level is really assur. So I'm guessing there could be what to say about this issue. – Double AA♦ Jul 20 '12 at 3:32

@SethJ Also it could open discussion about non-water based cleaning. – Double AA♦ Jul 20 '12 at 19:08
