A well looked after suit will last a long time. For complete satisfaction follow these basic care instructions to preserve your suit’s longevity.

Pockets, lapels should be brushed frequently to remove dirt.
Stains should be blotted immediately not rubbed.
Creased garments recover well in a humid environment. Hang them somewhere damp and warm, such as a bathroom, or vaporize them lightly with water.

After use, allow your suit to rest; wearing the same suit for two days in succession can cause damage to the fibres.
To help maintain the shape of your suit always hang your jacket on an appropriate hanger that supports the shoulders and always hang your trousers vertically.

Avoid placing items in your pockets as this will put strain on the seams.

Unbutton your suit jacket before you sit down to avoid pulling.
Store your suit in a breathable garment bag for protection.
Have your suit dry cleaned at least once a season, however excessive dry cleaning can reduce the life of a suit.
Dry clean all garments with a lining.

Silks and woollens should not be washed.

We suggest washing your cotton shirts with cold water and to be hung dry.

Make sure to remind your local dry cleaners to take good care of your garments and avoid all abrasive detergents.
