Caring For Your Suit & Keep Your Suit Looking Great

The following are pointers which will prolong the life of your suits.

Rest:  Avoid wearing the same suit on consecutive days, which may distress the fabric, because it will not have time to air out or return to its proper shape.

Brush:  Give the suit a quick brushing with a soft-thistled brush to remove dust & particulate matter from smog.

Hang Properly:  Before hanging up your suit, empty the pockets of items that may cause wrinkling or bunching; zip up trousers, & fasten buttons.  Hang suit coats on substantial, wooden hangers, & hang the trousers upside-down by the cuffs on a clamp hanger.  Draping trousers over a hanger may cause unwanted creases.

Give your suits adequate space in the closet; ensure that they are not touching other clothes. This lets the fabric breathe. 

Place cedar chips or a few moth balls in a box on the floor of your closet to repel moths.

If the suit is wrinkled, try hanging it in the bathroom with steam from the shower.  Then let it air out. 

Avoid dry cleaning your suits too often.  There is usually no need to dryclean a suit more than once every five times you wear it; some experts suggest drycleaning once every ten to twelve wearings.  It is often sufficient to get your suit steam pressed to remove wrinkles & refresh trouser creases, instead of having it dry cleaned.  Never iron a suit because the hot metal might damage the material.  Summer suits of cotton or linen, which tend to absorb perspiration, may need more frequent cleaning.

A suit will lose a little color with each dry cleaning.  Dry clean your suit as a set (jacket & trousers) at the same time so they will continue to have the same color.  If you make the mistake of splitting your suit jacket & trousers please be aware that the colors will begin to change & the suit may no longer match in color. 

If storing a suit for a long period, seal it in a plastic or cloth garment bag.
