Product care

We believe that keeping your treasured clothes longer is key to a more sustainable approach to fashion. That’s why we create our collections with carefully considered high-quality materials – to make them last beyond the season. Whether a cashmere cardigan or daily denim, with a little bit of love and care, you can extend the lifespan of your favourite garments.

Wool sweater

Your best friend for the colder days of the year and really low-maintenance – a woollen sweater indeed is a real wardrobe treasure. As wool has natural self-cleaning properties, you don’t have to wash it often. Most of the time, airing is the best way to take care of wool knitwear. And if there is a stain, try to spot clean carefully with a damp cloth before washing.


WASH & DRY

If your wool sweater needs a wash, the best option is to choose the wool or delicate cycle at a low temperature. You can also hand wash in lukewarm water. Always remember: avoid rubbing and wringing as it damages the structure of the fibres. The key to fluffy wool is a special detergent for delicate materials, which is based on an innovative oat formula. Also remember that wool doesn’t like to be tumble dried. Instead, air dry flat on a large towel and carefully pull into shape.

STORE & MAINTAIN

Pilling is a natural process and occurs with all untreated wool fibres. So it’s not a sign of bad quality, the tiny fibre balls are simply caused by friction. You can easily remove them with a special comb or a fabric razor. The good news: over time, pilling will decrease.

Always fold your knitwear and store lying flat as it might lose its shape when stored on a hanger. Make sure to clean your woollen garments before packing them away for a longer time and add some cedar balls or dried lavender sachets to keep moths away.

Cotton GARMENTS

Unlike wool, cotton doesn’t possess self-cleaning properties and therefore needs a wash regularly. But it’s worth keeping in mind that if you’ve only worn your favourite t-shirt just for a few hours and didn’t sweat, perhaps you can skip one round of laundering. Hang to air instead and freshen it up with a spritz of our fabric spray.


WASH AND DRY

Many cotton garments can be washed at 40 or even 60 degrees. But if your t-shirt is not very dirty, 30 degrees will easily do. Washing at colder temperatures saves energy and protects the fibres. Also, you keep shrinkage to a minimum (all cotton that is not pre-washed will naturally shrink). Air dry after carefully pulling the shirt into shape and you are good to go.

MAINTAIN AND STORE

To enjoy your cotton garments for a longer time, a few tricks will help make them stay nice: rotate your selection of t-shirts, a bit of rest is good for the fabric, and always wash with similar colours.

A stained collar or armpit don’t necessarily mean you have to get rid of your favourite tee. Some classic household tricks like using vinegar against odours or lemon acid against yellow stains often work wonders. And if a long-time t-shirt friend really can’t be worn any longer, do not throw it out, but bring to textile recycling – for example, in any of our stores.
