Looking After Your Clothes
We want your clothes to last a long time and still look good in years to come, here’s how ….
STAINS
Spot treat the stain immediately as the fabrics we use have a high absorbency and the longer you leave it, the more difficult it will be to get rid of it.
THE BAG
We recommend using a laundry bag as it helps protects the garment from excessive abrasion and distortion in the washing machine.
The size is important too, too big a bag and your garment will unfold and distort, too small and you wont get a satisfactory wash.
Turn the item inside out , fold it loosely and place it in the bag.
DETERGENTS & SOFTENERS
Preferably use a good quality eco detergent as it is better for the environment. Things to look out for when choosing your detergent; optical brighteners, chlorine, synthetic perfumes and colours, parabens, phosphates, petrochemicals and sulphates.
Less is more with detergent, so only use what you really need as any excess detergent left on your clothes affects the handle and can make it look dull.
We do not recommend softeners as we test our fabrics in a laboratory and know that the handle recovers after a quick iron.
THE TEMPERTURE & CYCLE
Always wash on a low temperature cycle (we recommend 30℃), not only is this better for your clothes but you also use less energy.
Do not tumble dry as this will ruin your clothes. We recommend hanging your clothes to dry (apart from knitwear) as it makes ironing easier and uses no energy.
Hand washing cold is our preferred cleaning option, simply wash and hang to dry (no laundry bag needed !).
IRONING & STEAMING
Always iron inside out on a warm temperature and use a little steam to remove any creases.
DRY CLEANING
We do not recommend dry-cleaning any of our products.
SHARE THE LOVE
We fully support circularity and recommend recycling your unwanted clothes by donating to a charity, or if unwearable, a textile recycling centre.
It is really important to us that our clothes never end up in a landfill.
