Care
Given its wool composition, proper care is essential to maintain the coat's quality and appearance:
- Cleaning: The primary recommendation for wool is dry cleaning. If machine washing is attempted (check care label), use a delicate wool cycle with cold water and a specialized wool detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach.
- Drying: Do not tumble dry. Lay flat on a clean towel or hang on a padded hanger to air dry, away from direct sunlight or heat.
- Storage: Store on a wide, padded hanger to help retain its shape. Keep it in a cool, dry place, ideally in a breathable garment bag to protect it from dust and moths.
- Wrinkles: Use a steamer or iron on a low wool setting with a pressing cloth to remove wrinkles. Avoid direct iron contact with the fabric.
