Care Instructions

Care: Brush off dirt to remove debris, do not machine wash, dry clean, or tumble dry. These processes will strip the wax finish. Do not dry clean. Avoid machine washing. Do not tumble dry. These processes will strip the wax finish. If washing is needed, hand wash gently with a cloth and cold water. Test the soap you plan to use, as many stronger detergents will break down the wax. 


The water resistant properties will decrease with washing and wear. To restore, apply a reproofing spray specifically designed for dry waxed fabrics.

Note: we recommend that you pre-wash / pre-treat your fabric in the manner you intend to wash your finished garment.
