Wool is a fiber very sensitive to water and heat, so wool cloth coats cannot be cleaned in a domestic washing machine as the risk of felting is too high. These items must be cleaned by a dry cleaning professional, usually at least once a year.

Please refer to your item's label for detailed care instructions. For further explanations regarding care symbols, feel free to read our care tips at the bottom of the page.

To avoid overly frequent dry cleaning, which can wear out the material, you can regularly care for your coat yourself:

• Remove pilling that naturally forms using a depilling comb or fabric shaver;
• Lightly brush the material to remove dust with a soft-bristled brush, following the nap of the fabric;
• Use a slightly damp sponge to remove small marks or stains without rubbing excessively;
• Linings can often be cleaned with a damp sponge in the most frequently used areas.

Namely, woolen coats are not meant to be worn in the rain as these fabrics are sensitive to water.

To protect your item from damage, you can waterproof it using a special textile waterproofing spray. Before any treatment, test the product on an inconspicuous area of your item. The operation should be repeated regularly because this treatment is volatile and fades over time, with washes and showers!

Your wool coats should be stored in a closed, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to preserve the material and its color. Hung on a wide coat hanger, sized appropriately for the coat's shoulders to prevent deformation, they can be stored under a cover while awaiting the winter season. Be careful, however, to use a breathable cover for the material, such as cotton.

It is also wise to protect your wool items from small pests like moths, which can wreak havoc on these beautiful materials: use clothing moth repellents in your storage areas, especially during the spring-summer period.

Bouclé wool coats cannot be machine washed, as the risk of felting is too high. These items should be dry cleaned by a professional at least once a year, at the end of the winter season.

To avoid overly frequent dry cleaning, which can damage the material, you can regularly care for your coat yourself:

• Remove any pilling that naturally occurs using a depilling comb; a fabric shaver is not recommended for textured materials, as it may alter the visual appearance of your item;
• Lightly brush the material to remove dust with a soft-bristled brush, without ruffling the material;
• Use a slightly damp sponge to remove small marks or stains without excessive rubbing;
• Linings can often be cleaned in high-wear areas with a damp sponge.

It's important to know that wool coats are not meant to be worn in the rain, as these fabrics are sensitive to water.

To protect your item from damage, you can regularly waterproof it. To do this, use a textile waterproofing spray. Before any treatment, test the product on an inconspicuous area of your item. The process should be repeated regularly as this treatment is volatile and fades over time, with washes, and with rain!

The waterproofing will be less effective on heavily textured, overly fibrous items.

Your wool coats should be stored in an enclosed, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to preserve the material and its color. Hung on a wide coat hanger, sized appropriately for your coat's shoulders to prevent deformation, they can be stored in a garment bag while awaiting the winter season. Be careful, however, to use a breathable garment bag, made of cotton for example.

It is also wise to protect your wool items from unwanted pests such as moths, which can wreak havoc on these beautiful materials: use clothing moth repellents in your storage areas, especially during the spring-summer period.

Fibrous coats cannot be machine washed as the risk of felting is too high. These items should be professionally dry cleaned, usually once a year at the end of the winter season.

Please refer to your item's care label for washing instructions. For further explanation of care symbols, please read our care tips at the bottom of the page.

To avoid overly frequent dry cleaning, which can damage the material, you can maintain your coat regularly yourself:

• You can remove pilling that naturally occurs with a pilling comb or by hand. As a precaution, if using a pilling comb, test it on a less visible area first. A fabric shaver is strictly forbidden for this type of material as your item will lose its fibrous appearance.
• You can very gently brush the material to remove dust with a soft-bristled brush, if possible in the direction of the nap and without ruffling the material. Again, as a precaution, we recommend testing it on a less visible area to see if you are satisfied with the result.
• Linings can often be cleaned with a damp sponge on the most frequently used areas.

Waterproofing is not very effective on this type of material because the product cannot adhere to a surface with so much texture.

Such fibrous materials are often naturally slightly waterproof because water tends to slide along the fibers. However, it is better to protect these items from rain to avoid irreversible damage.

Your wool coats should be stored in a closed, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to preserve the material and its colour. Once properly closed and hung on a wide coat hanger (whose size is appropriate for your coat's shoulders to prevent deformation), they can be stored under a cover until winter. However, be careful to use a breathable cover, made of cotton for example. Storing them under a cover will also protect nearby items from flying fibres or accidental pilling.

It is also wise to protect your wool items from unwanted pests such as moths, which can wreak havoc on these beautiful materials: use clothing moth repellents in your storage areas, particularly during the spring-summer period. These pests are especially fond of noble fibres such as cashmere, alpaca, or angora.

The care of your parka will depend on the composition of its main material as well as its construction (heat-sealed seams, epaulets, etc.). Most often made from waterproof polyamide or waxed material, the parka is the easy-care coat par excellence.

Parkas can often withstand occasional domestic washing, but always prefer a machine wash on a hand-wash cycle, cold or 30°C maximum, inside out. Drying on a hanger is recommended. Be careful with ironing, which is often to be avoided on this type of synthetic or waxed material.

It is generally advisable to clean your item at least once a year, at the end of the season, before storage. In all cases, please refer to your item's care labels detailing the washing options. For more explanation regarding care symbols, please feel free to read our care tips at the bottom of the page.

To avoid overly regular professional cleaning, which can wear out the material, you can regularly care for your coat yourself with these few tips:

• Clean stains with a sponge or damp cloth;
• Clean linings with a damp sponge in the most frequently used areas.

Your parka is most often used to protect you from rain and wind. Most parkas are made of water-repellent, waxed, or naturally waterproof fabric, making manual waterproofing unnecessary. For your cotton parkas or when you feel that your parka is no longer as waterproof as before, you can try to waterproof your item yourself.

To do this, use a textile waterproofing spray. The operation should be repeated regularly as this treatment is volatile and fades over time, washes, and showers!

Your parkas should be stored in a closed, dry place, away from direct sunlight to preserve the material and its color. Properly zipped and then hung on a hanger, whose size is appropriate for your parka's shoulders to avoid deforming it, they can be stored under a cover. Be careful, however, to use a cover that allows the material to breathe, such as cotton. Before storing or placing under a cover, make sure your item is completely dry to avoid any mold surprises.

The care of your trench coat will depend on the composition of its main material and its construction (heat-sealing, epaulets, etc.).

The most used areas, such as the collar, sleeve ends, or the bottom of your trench coat, should be inspected regularly: if they start to darken, yellow, or simply get stained, it's time to have your item cleaned! Generally, it is recommended to have your item cleaned at least once a year, at the end of the season, before storing it.

Some cotton trench coats can withstand occasional domestic washing. In this case, prefer a machine wash on a hand-wash program, cold or 30°C maximum, inside out. Drying on a hanger and ironing with a cool iron on the reverse side are recommended.

In all cases, please refer to your item's care labels detailing the washing possibilities. For more explanation regarding care symbols, please read our care tips at the bottom of the page.

To avoid overly frequent professional cleaning, which can wear out the material, you can regularly maintain your coat yourself with these few tips:

• Gently brush the material to remove dust with a soft-bristled brush or a clean cloth.
• Clean the linings with a damp sponge in the most used areas.
• Some 100% cotton or waxed trench coats can be regularly maintained by cleaning with a damp sponge in common soiled areas: inside of the collar, sleeve ends, and bottom of the trench coat.

Our trench coat is most often used to protect us from rain and wind. To preserve the material from the ravages of time and ensure good protection against rain, it is sometimes necessary to waterproof your trench coat regularly.

To do this, use a textile waterproofing spray. This operation should be repeated regularly as this treatment is volatile and fades over time, washes, and showers!

Obviously, trench coats made of vinyl, rubber, or other waxed or naturally waterproof coatings do not require waterproofing.

Your trench coats should be stored in a closed, dry place, away from direct sunlight to preserve the fabric and its color. Once properly closed and hung on a hanger that fits the shoulders of your trench coat to avoid deforming it, they can be stored under a cover.

However, be careful to use a breathable cover, for example, made of cotton. Before storing or covering, make sure your item is completely dry to prevent any mold surprises.

• Separate items by color, material, and therefore washing temperature. White or black, light or dark colors, cold wash or at 30°C or more…
• New clothes that have not yet been washed should be washed separately as there is a greater risk of color bleeding;
• Remove detachable parts that do not need to be washed or that should be washed separately, such as fur collars;
• Turn your item inside out to preserve colors as much as possible and prevent other damage;
• Empty pockets, close zippers or clasps that can damage clothes during drum rotations;
• For coordinated items (suit, set, assortment), prioritize simultaneous washing to limit color variations;
• Wash your most delicate items in a laundry bag or pillowcase to protect them;

• Opt for low-temperature washing: often sufficient to remove stains, it limits your machine's unnecessary energy consumption and preserves fibers, which are often sensitive to heat;
• The choice of program should be adapted to the clothes to be washed: delicate items, silk, wool, or sheets, they do not have the same needs;
• For hand washing, prefer machine washing on a hand-wash cycle, which is often more reliable and consistent, and therefore less aggressive than purely manual washing;
• Note that cold washing means approximately 20°C: the water should be below 30°C (which is already too high for some fibers) but not freezing! Thermal shock can be just as disastrous if too hot or too cold!
• Use a mild detergent, gentle on both skin and the environment: ecological detergents are preferable if you can; Adapt your detergent to your items: detergent for wool or for dark colors. Be careful with common detergents that contain optical brighteners, which lighten clothes.
• Adapt the amount of detergent to the size of your machine, the volume of clothes to be washed, and the hardness of your water; Too much detergent can sometimes harm the quality of materials.
• Do not overfill your machine; clothes will not be washed correctly if they cannot move in the drum. Conversely, an almost empty machine is more likely to crease your items.
• Spinning, and therefore the number of revolutions, should be adapted according to the materials and delicacy of the items to be washed. Knits and woolens should be spun carefully between 400 and 600 rpm, for example;
• Bleaching or the use of additional chemical products should be avoided for quality ready-to-wear;
• Do not leave clothes soaking in water for more than 10 minutes, even for persistent stains. Soaking is a major cause of color bleeding and should be avoided as much as possible.
• In case of stains, clean them as soon as possible; do not let them set. The longer a stain remains, the deeper it embeds itself into the fiber.
