Troubleshooting
Blazer appears misshapen after cleaning
Gently reshape the blazer while it is damp and lay it flat to dry. Avoid machine drying or wringing, which can distort the fibers.
Pilling on the fabric surface
Pilling is a natural occurrence with wool and alpaca blends. Gently remove pills using a fabric shaver or by carefully snipping them with small scissors. Avoid excessive friction.
Loss of softness or texture
Ensure you are using appropriate wool-care detergents and the correct washing/drying methods. Professional dry cleaning is often best for maintaining the original feel.
