CLOTHING
DO
• Always read the care label before washing and organise your laundry into groups with similar care instructions/colours
DON'T
• Use too much detergent or detergents that contain bleach
• Do not tumble dry unless indicated on the care label
• Do not iron prints, trims or embellishments. If need be, iron on reverse or use a clean tea towel between the iron and garment
• Do not leave garments with white and contrast coloured panels soaking for prolonged periods
• Do not wash a garment if it says Dry Clean only
FOOTWEAR
DO
• Invest in shoe trees – they allow recently worn shoes to contract and dry out to their ideal shape
• Visit a cobbler when shoes need to be resoled
• Polish your shoes – the little time you spend cleaning and polishing will be repaid by the extended lifespan
DON'T
• Put wet shoes near direct heat or a radiator – they may dry too quickly and cause the leather to crack. Instead push newspaper into the shoe and let it dry naturally
• Leave salt stains (from road gritting) on your shoes. Instead, remove them with a little vinegar and water
SUITS
DO
• Use a wishbone shaped hanger after wearInvest in a clothes brush and brush your suit after wear; this will stop dirt settling into the fabric
• Use a suit carrier for transporting suits and a cloth suit cover for when it is in the wardrobe
• Invest in a clothes brush and brush your suit after wear; this will stop dirt settling into the fabric
DON'T
• Wear the same suit day after day – a suit needs 24 hours to air and breathe
• Put the suit back in the closet straight after wear
• Hang it in a well-ventilated area so any moisture in the wool dissipates and the fibres spring back into shape
