Shearling Care Information |
In order to avoid accidental damage of your .shearling coat or jacket you have to keep in mind a couple of things: 1. Don’t put your shearling near a fire place or other heat sources. It can over dry up the natural surface of your shearling and eventually damage the whole coat. 2. Never put your shearling in a washing machine or in a dryer. The shearling garments require only dry cleaning with the application of natural oil into the hides. Only deal with a professional dry cleaning service for suede or shearling. Please, ask them how they going to clean your coat. The necessary step in the process of the cleaning your shearling is putting the natural oil back into hides. Without this process the shearling will be over dried and eventually your coat will be damaged. 4. Keep your shearling away from stain resistant treatments because it comes with a silicone which damages shearling coat. I would recommend Cavalier brand Protect-All which is a rain and stain repellent which does not change the color on the tender suede finish. 5. Avoid putting adhesive stickers on your shearling coat or jackets because it may leave a stain of glue or pull off some of the suede
7. Do not leave your shearling or leather garments for a long time in a car during the rainy, hot weather. The result of it being wrinkled, heated and moisturized is the shirking and damaging the shape of your favorite shearling coat or jacket |
