Garment Care
Indicated below are general care instructions according to fabric. For safe results, always test laundering on a small or hidden area of the garment first.
Please note that these are general recommendations. For more accurate guidelines, please follow the specific care instructions indicated on the garment label.
Natural Fabrics:
Cotton, silk, leather and wool are examples of natural fabrics produced from materials derived from plants and/or animals. Materials made from natural sources require special care and attention to preserve their quality.

Please note that pilling is a natural process that occasionally may occur in woolen fibres. Washing your clothes inside out will help prevent pilling and investing in an electric de-piller will help safely remove them. However, if left alone, these will eventually pull away on their own.

Suede Leather
Suede is a leather that has a soft napped surface.
Before use, seal the suede with a professional suede sealant to help repel dirt.To treat a liquid spill, pat the area with a clean cloth and then apply a layer of cornmeal or talcum powder on the stain. Let it set overnight, then brush with a suede brush to remove the dried powder.For dried stains, rub with a kneaded eraser or emery board. For heavier stains, blot with white vinegar and a clean towel. Repeat as needed until stain disappears. This can be used on both water and salt stains.
Do not clean suede with water alone as it will affect both the color and texture of the leather.
