Proper clothing care is not just a matter of washing, but also proper drying, ironing,
and storage. By taking good care of your clothes, you can enjoy them for a
longer time. Such care helps save money and protect the environment. A
conscious approach to clothing care reduces energy and water consumption, as
well as the amount of plastic and chemicals that end up in our rivers, lakes,
and seas. 

WOOL

How to Care for Wool Sweaters

Taking proper care of wool sweaters is essential to maintain their quality, softness, and shape. Wool is a delicate fiber that requires special attention. Here are the precise steps to care for wool sweaters:

WASHING

Hand Washing:
Wool sweaters are best washed by hand. Use lukewarm water (about 30°C) and a gentle detergent designed for wool. Fill a basin with water and detergent, submerge the sweater, and gently press the fabric to clean the fibers. Avoid excessive rubbing or wringing. Rinse in cold water until the water runs clear.

Machine Washing:
If the care label allows machine washing, select the "wool" or "hand wash" cycle. Set a low temperature (max 30°C) and minimal spin. Always use a wool-specific detergent.

Avoid Frequent Washing:
Wool sweaters don’t need to be washed after every wear. Simply airing them out can help remove odors.

DRYING

Removing Excess Water:
After washing, gently press out excess water, but do not wring or twist the sweater, as this can stretch the fibers.

Flat Drying:
Lay the sweater flat to dry to maintain its shape. Place it on a dry towel, reshape it to its original form, and let it air dry in a well-ventilated area. You can gently roll the sweater in the towel to absorb extra moisture.

Avoid Hanging to Dry:
Hanging a wet sweater can cause stretching and deformation. Always dry wool sweaters flat, away from direct sunlight and heat sources like radiators to prevent fiber damage.

REFRESHING BETWEEN WASHES

Airing Out:
Wool sweaters don’t need frequent washing. Simply airing them out in fresh air can help eliminate odors. Wool naturally resists odor and self-cleans.

Steaming:
If the sweater becomes wrinkled, refresh it using steam. Use a garment steamer or an iron with a steam function, keeping it a few centimeters above the fabric—do not press the iron directly onto the wool.

COTTON

  • It is worth knowing that due to natural fibers, cotton slightly shrinks after
    washing.

  • Cotton basics can be machine washed, preferably at 30°C on a gentle cycle. On the other hand, cotton long sleeves, skirts, and dresses should be hand washed in cool or lukewarm water with a gentle detergent. High temperatures can weaken the fibers. Remember to rinse clothes without twisting or wringing them.

  • Cotton clothes can be hung to dry or laid flat. Avoid tumble dryers due to the risk of shrinking.

  • Not every cotton item requires ironing. For ironing cotton, it’s best to use a steamer or set the iron to low/medium temperature. You can also hang the garment in the bathroom during a bath: the steam will reduce wrinkles and naturally iron it.

  • When storing cotton clothes, it’s worth ensuring proper air circulation, which will positively affect their condition.

CUPRO

  • Delicate, soft, and breathable clothes made from cupro do not need washing after every use. You can hang them to air out, away from sunlight, which can cause the material to fade. 

  • The safest method is hand washing with a gentle detergent in lukewarm or cool water. High temperatures can weaken the fibers. Remember to rinse clothes without twisting or wringing them.

  • Clothes made of cupro should be hung out to dry in the open air. 

  • When ironing, use the lowest iron temperature. You can also hang a dress or shirt in the bathroom during a bath: the steam will reduce wrinkles and naturally iron the garment. 

  • Clothes made of cupro are best stored on hangers with space between them. Air circulation ensures better condition of the clothes. 

LYOCELL

  • Delicate, soft, and breathable clothes made from lyocell do not need washing after every use. You can hang them to air out, away from sunlight, which can cause the material to fade. 

  • The safest method is hand washing with a gentle detergent in lukewarm or cool water. High temperatures can weaken the fibers. Remember to rinse clothes without twisting or wringing them.

  • Clothes made of lyocell should be hung out to dry in the open air. 

  • When ironing, use the lowest iron temperature. You can also hang a dress or shirt in the bathroom during a bath: the steam will reduce wrinkles and naturally iron the garment. 

  • Clothes made of lyocell are best stored on hangers with space between them. Air circulation ensures better condition of the clothes. 

SILK

  • Delicate silk should be washed according to the label instructions. Some silks are only suitable for dry cleaning.

  • Other silk clothes can be hand washed in cold water. We recommend adding a bit of vinegar, lemon juice, or salt and rinsing the fabric several times. You can also use a gentle detergent dedicated to silks. Avoid traditional washing powders as they can damage the material and affect its shine and color. 

  • After rinsing, squeeze out excess water without twisting or wringing. 

  • Dry silk flat by laying the garments on a dry towel. 

  • To safely iron silk, use an additional thin fabric to protect the material and use a steamer. 

  • Store silk clothes on hangers. Ensure proper air circulation, which will positively affect their condition. 

DENIM

  • Denim should be washed a few times per season. Due to its properties, it does not require frequent washing. 

  • Wash at 30°C or lower. Lay flat to dry or hang. 

  • Separate light and dark washes to prevent dark colors from bleeding onto lighter clothes and turn them inside out. After washing, shake the garment slightly to avoid shrinking. Hang it out to dry in the open air away from sunlight. 

  • Before washing, remember to fasten buttons and zippers to maintain the shape of the clothes. 

  • Not every denim item requires ironing. For ironing denim, it’s best to use a steam iron. When storing denim clothes, ensure proper air circulation, which will positively affect their condition 

VISCOSE

  • Delicate, soft, and breathable clothes made from viscose do not need washing after every use. You can hang them to air out, away from sunlight, which can cause the material to fade. 

  • The safest method is hand washing with a gentle detergent in lukewarm or cool water. High temperatures can weaken the fibers. Remember to rinse clothes without twisting or wringing them.

  • Clothes made of viscose should be hung out to dry in the open air. 

  • When ironing, use the lowest iron temperature. You can also hang a dress or shirt in the bathroom during a bath: the steam will reduce wrinkles and naturally iron the garment. 

  • Clothes made of viscose are best stored on hangers with space between them. Air circulation ensures better condition of the clothes. 

LINEN

  • Linen clothes do not need washing after every use. You can hang them to air
    out, away from sunlight, which can cause the material to fade.

  • Gentle washing at 30°C. Linen clothes are best hand washed in cold or lukewarm
    water with a mild detergent.

  • Linen clothes should be hung out to dry in the open air. Tumble drying poses a
    risk of shrinking and damaging the fibers.
