Troubleshooting

Trousers appear creased after washing/storage.

Follow recommended ironing instructions on a low heat setting, potentially with a pressing cloth. Hang the trousers immediately after ironing to minimize creasing.

Fabric feels stiff after cleaning.

This can be normal for linen blends. Ensure proper ironing and wear will help soften the fabric over time. Avoid harsh detergents or high heat during cleaning.

Color appears faded.

Ensure you are following the care instructions for color retention, such as washing in cold water and avoiding direct sunlight when drying. Professional dry cleaning is often best for maintaining color.
