We recommend following the specific instructions printed on the garment label, but here are our general top tips to make your item last longer but also keep them looking as good as new!
All our jeans are made from 100% denim cotton, using a cotton and polyester blend. Each piece is dyed using a specialist process to achieve our signature colour. Due to this unique dyeing process, colour transfer can occur, especially when new. With the right care, your denim will age naturally, so you can wear them year after year!
Before your first wear:
- We recommend washing your jeans on their own on a cold wash to help set the colour and prevent dye transfer
Washing guidelines:
- Cold wash only on a delicate cycle
- Hand wash when possible
- Wash inside out
- Wash with similar colours
- Use a small amount of mild, gentle detergent
Please avoid:
- Fabric softener
- Tumble drying (heat can damage fibres and cause shrinkage)
- Over-washing - wash only when necessary and air between wears
Drying and Steaming:
- Air dry where possible
- Use steam to release any creases
- Hold the steamer slightly away from the garment and steam inside where possible
Thoughtful care helps your denim last season after season and only get better with wear. If you ever have questions about fit, fabric, or care, we are always here to help.
