PRODUCT CARE

Storage:

Store items in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and material degradation.

Keep products away from humidity and dust to maintain their condition.

When not in use, store items in their original dust bags or protective covers to shield them from environmental factors.

Cleaning:

Use a soft, damp cloth with slightly soapy water for cleaning.

Avoid using harsh chemicals, alcohol-based solutions, or commercial cleaners, as they may damage the material.

For delicate items, consider professional cleaning services to preserve their quality.

Protection:

Avoid contact with highly pigmented materials to prevent color transfer.

Keep products away from sharp objects to prevent scratches and tears.

Regularly inspect items for signs of wear and address any issues promptly to maintain their longevity.

Material-Specific Care:

Leather Goods:

LAMBSKIN, Calfskin and cowhide leathers are chosen for their refinement and suppleness.

These leathers may carry natural imperfections, such as veins or wrinkles.

To maintain their quality, avoid using any commercial cleaners.

Regularly apply a suitable leather conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent drying.

Protect leather items from humidity, water spray, and rain.

Avoid contact with water, alcohol-based solutions, or any other liquids, which may alter the texture causing permanently visible stains and color transfer.

Should your item encounter water, immediately and gently blot the affected area with a light-colored, absorbent, lint-free cloth.

Exposure to sunlight should be avoided as color may fade.

Canvas Products:

Coated canvas can be cleaned with a damp cloth and slightly soapy water.

Avoid using home remedies such as mink oil, perfume, leather lotions, cleaners, or chemicals, as they may cause the canvas to wear adversely and prematurely.

Contact with highly pigmented materials increases the risk of color transfer onto the canvas and should be avoided.

Light-colored canvas is particularly susceptible to such wear.

Limit contact with hard or rough surfaces (walls, rugs, concrete) to prevent abrasion.

Rotate the use of your items to ensure optimal wear and longevity.

Textiles:

Textiles are susceptible to pulls caused by sharp objects such as fingernails, jewelry, zippers, etc., and should be handled with care.

When not in use, store in a cool, dry place away from dust and humidity.

Dry cleaning is recommended for cleaning. Any home remedies or machine washing can severely damage the textile.

Wool:

Hand wash in cold water using a mild detergent formulated for wool.

Avoid wringing or twisting the fabric to prevent distortion.

Lay flat to dry on a clean, dry towel, reshaping the garment to its original dimensions.

Store in a cool, dry place, and consider using moth repellents to protect against pests.

Cashmere:

Hand wash in cold water with a detergent specifically designed for cashmere.

Avoid wringing or twisting the fabric to prevent damage.

Gently press out excess water and lay flat to dry on a clean, dry towel, reshaping the garment as needed.

Store folded in a cool, dry place, and use moth repellents to protect against pests.

Denim:

Wash denim garments inside out in cold water to preserve color and prevent fading.

Use a mild detergent and avoid bleach.

Air dry by hanging or laying flat; avoid using a dryer to prevent shrinkage and maintain fabric integrity.

Store in a cool, dry place, and avoid overloading the washing machine to reduce stress on the fabric.

Cotton:

Machine wash in cold or warm water with a mild detergent.

Avoid using bleach, as it can weaken the fibers.

Tumble dry on a low setting or air dry to prevent shrinkage.

Iron on a medium setting if necessary, and store in a cool, dry place.

Nylon:

Machine wash in cold water with a mild detergent.

Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as they can damage the fibers.

Tumble dry on a low setting or air dry to maintain fabric strength.

Store in a cool, dry place, and avoid exposure to direct sunlight to prevent degradation.
