Wool Suit Care Guide

Wool provides a classic, breathable drape that adapts beautifully to various climates. The natural fibers possess excellent memory, allowing the fabric to bounce back from daily wear. Proper wool suit care preserves the natural spring and the sharp, tailored silhouette. Follow these steps to maintain the fit and appearance of your bespoke garments.

Everyday Care & Storage

• Brush the fabric after every wear. Use a natural-bristle clothes brush to sweep away dust and food particles that attract moths.

• Hang your jacket on a wide, contoured wooden hanger immediately after wearing to support the heavy tailored shoulders.

• Hang the trousers by the hem using a clamp hanger. The natural weight of the wool pulls out most creases easily overnight.

• Use a garment steamer to relax persistent wrinkles and freshen the wool fibers.

• Never press a hot iron directly onto the fabric. If you must iron, use the steam setting and place a clean pressing cloth over the suit to prevent creating a permanent shine.

• Allow the suit to rest in a well-ventilated space for at least 24 hours between wears. Wool absorbs moisture and needs time to dry and recover its natural shape.

Cleaning

• Take the garment to a professional dry cleaner only when it requires a deep refresh, typically once or twice a season. Wool naturally repels dirt and resists odors.

• Spot clean minor spills immediately. Gently blot the area with a damp cloth. Never rub, as this damages the natural wool fibers.

• Do not machine wash your bespoke suit. Water immersion shrinks the wool, destroys the internal canvas, and ruins the tailored fit entirely.

2-Piece Suit (Jacket & Trousers)

• Dry clean the jacket and trousers together every time. Cleaning the pieces together ensures the fabric ages uniformly and maintains a perfect color match.

3-Piece Suit (Jacket, Trousers & Waistcoat)

• Air out the waistcoat thoroughly in a well-ventilated room after each wear. It sits closest to your body and absorbs the most heat and moisture.

• Always dry clean the jacket, trousers, and waistcoat at the exact same time. Even if you skip wearing the waistcoat for a day, cleaning all three pieces together maintains identical color consistency across the entire suit.
