Troubleshooting

Blazer loses shape after cleaning

Ensure you are using a professional dry cleaner specializing in delicate wool and mohair blends. Avoid any form of home washing or machine drying.

Fabric appears fuzzy or pilled

This is a natural characteristic of mohair blends. Minor fuzziness can sometimes be gently addressed with a fabric shaver designed for delicate materials, but excessive pilling may indicate wear or improper care. Professional steaming can help.

Buttons become loose

Gently re-stitch any loose buttons using a strong thread that matches the original. If buttons are damaged, contact a tailor for professional repair or replacement.

Color transfer onto other garments

This is a risk with deeply dyed fabrics. Ensure the blazer is fully dry before wearing it with lighter-colored items, especially in humid conditions. Professional dry cleaning can sometimes minimize this risk.
