general intro to knitwear

• When washing, turn your knitwear inside out to avoid pilling 
• Wash at 30 degrees or lower, using a gentle cycle for general care.
• Always lay the garment flat to dry to prevent stretching.
• Store the item folded in your closet (not on a hanger), to maintain its perfect fit and prevent unnecessary stretching.
• Don’t tumble dry 
• Use a fabric shaver to remove any pilling that occurs over time  

Corduroy is one of those timeless wardrobe staples that we designed to last, both in terms of quality and style. Take the following care tips into account to enjoy your corduroy items to the fullest.

• Wash inside out and close zippers to protect the fabric;
• Avoid washing with towels or similar fabrics to prevent the garment from attracting lint or loose fibers;
• Use a lint brush to easily restore the garment's fresh look if there are any loose fibers;
• Take the garment out of the washing machine directly (or asap) after it beeps! To maintain the original fit, prevent creases, and keep the fabric pile from flattening;
• Use steam to remove wrinkels and freshen up the garment in between wears;

We choose to work with organic cotton instead of 'conventional' cotton, because of its sustainability benefits like reducing chemical use, supporting biodiversity and ensuring fair labour practices. Growing organic cotton also requires relatively less water. This way we can create a high quality product, while lowering its environmental impact.

• While cotton can handle a bit more, we still advise to wash your garments at a maximum of 30 degrees for quality and colour retention;
• Opt for air-drying instead of tumble dry to avoid unwanted shrinking and keep its form
• Air out to freshen up in between washes
  

Tencel™ Lyocell is a sustainable fiber, offering softness, breathability, and moisture absorption. Produced from responsibly sourced wood pulp, its closed-loop production process minimizes environmental impact. Another huge benefit: it's resistant to wrinkles. Effortless luxury in its purest form.

• Always wash on a gentle cycle;
• Look out for zippers and buttons that could damage the more delicate garments, we recommend using garment bags;
• Avoid tumble drying and hang-dry your garments instead; 
• If the item is wrinkled (for Tencel™ Lyocell with linen mixed items for example) use a steamer or iron at low temperature with a towel in between to avoid spots on the fabric.

Hemp and linen have gained the status of natural classics for us. The fibers are sourced from plants that require minimal water and pesticides.

Renowned for durability, hemp fibers soften over time without losing strength. While linen wrinkles easily, some view its natural creases as part of its charm. Linen and hemp's durability ensure long-lasting, high-quality garments with a timeless aesthetic.

• Wash on a gentle cycle;
• Avoid tumble drying, this can cause shrinking;
• Instead: hang dry or lay flat to dry.
• Embrace the wrinkles, they are part of linen’s charm. For heavy wrinkles, use a steamer or iron when the garment is still a little damp. 

Recycled wool combines sustainability with quality, as it reduces the environmental impact of traditional wool production. Wool has the magical characteristic of being anti-bacterial and odor-resistant, which means it can last longer without washing, how practical! When it is finally ready for a wash, follow these tips:

• Air out to freshen up in between washes
• Use a wool program on your washing machine 
• No tumble drying :) just it lay flat on a towel to dry 
• Wool is very likely to pill, but don’t worry, you can use a fabric shaver to easily remove the pilling from your item and enjoy its fresh look again.
