TO TREAT NATURALLY-OCCURRING BODY ODORS
- Place your pieces in a plastic bag and leave them in your freezer overnight to kill odor-causing bacteria
- Alternatively spray your pieces with a fabric freshener between washes - we love Laundress' Fabric Fresh Classic for an ultra-fresh, luxe scent
FOR MORE WIDESPREAD SOILING
- Machine wash cold on gentle / delicates cycle, with like colors
- How often should I wash my suit? While this will depend on personal preference and use cases, the general rule of thumb is blazers should be washed every 5 - 6 wears, and dress pants every 2 - 3 wears
2. Dry Naturally
FOR BEST RESULTS, HANG DRY
- To maintain the construction of your jacket and optimize shape retention, dry your jacket on the special-purpose suiting hanger provided with your purchase
- DO NOT tumble-dry your Technical Stretch as this will negatively impact the construction, shape and look and feel of the fabric
3. When Necessary,
Steam Gently
TO COMBAT STUBBORN CREASES
- Steam pieces carefully to achieve the desired result
- Do not steam piping detail as this may alter the shape / performance of the piping
- Alternatively, press pieces carefully using a warm iron (synthetics setting on most irons)
- Always use a pressing cloth (cotton muslin, or other natural fabric) between the iron and your Technical Stretch
- DO NOT iron directly on piping detail
- DO NOT iron the Nadelle vest, as this will melt the Primaloft insulation
