Washing sounds easy, but our own (and our long-time customers’) experience with damaged clothes has taught us that how you wash your clothes make a big difference. It can impact the surface of the textiles, the colour, the thickness of the garment and its lifecycle.
1. Sorting:
Always wash light and dark colours separately to avoid colour running. If you can, wash like colours together.
2. Checking for accessories on the garment:
Before placing your clothes in the washing machine, make sure that any additional items or accessories are removed. This goes for EW accessories as well, as they can get damaged in the wash cycle. Always check the clothing label for care instructions. Dry clean only those clothes that have a dry cleaning label (e.g. a wool coat).
3. Washing:Wash at temperature indicated on the label, as elastic materials can shrink at higher temperatures.
Remove clothes immediately after washing, shake them out and place them on a hanger so they stretch from their own weight. This prevents shrinkage and you can avoid ironing.
