Care & Washing Guide – Preserve Shape & Patina

1. Q: Can this jacket be machine washed?

   • A: Professional dry cleaning is strongly recommended to maintain the waxed finish, structural shape, and color integrity. Spot clean with damp cloth for minor stains.

2. Q: How to maintain the waxed fabric texture?

   • A: The wax coating will naturally age beautifully. Avoid heat exposure and harsh detergents. For reconditioning, use specialized fabric wax every 12-18 months based on wear frequency.

3. Q: What’s the proper storage method?

   • A: Hang on wide, padded hangers to preserve shoulder structure. Avoid plastic garment bags; use breathable cotton covers instead. Keep in dry environment to prevent moisture buildup.

4. Q: How to handle water stains?

   • A: The waxed fabric may show temporary water spots. Gently buff with soft cloth when dry. These characteristics enhance the vintage aesthetic over time.

5. Q: Can the ribbed trims be repaired if stretched?

   • A: The ribbed cuffs and hem are durable. To prevent stretching, avoid catching the ribs on sharp objects. Steam lightly if needed, but avoid direct ironing.
