All of my products are handmade using synthetic fabrics. The majority of the fabrics are nylon, but I also use polyester and acetate, in particular for the stripes and trims.
For best results and to keep your gear looking good for longer, I recommend that you follow these care instructions:
For best results and to keep your gear looking good for longer, I recommend that you follow these care instructions:
- Where possible, wash in cool water by hand with minimal detergent.
- If using a washing machine, select a cool (30 or 40 degrees C) delicate cycle and wash separately from other items with loose dyes or zips that could cause damage (e.g. jeans). Again, use minimal detergent and avoid stain removers like Vanish, as they can corrode delicate fabrics.
- Never use bleach. If you have to remove a stain, a bar of soap should do the job.
- Do not tumble dry. (Just hang the item up while wet and allow it to dry naturally. Most synthetic fibres will dry very quickly.)
- Do not iron. The sooner you hang the item up to dry after washing, the less liable it will be to creasing. (If you do need to get rid of creases, you can try ironing inside out on a cool setting with a damp towel in between the iron and the item).
