Troubleshooting

Pilling on the wool surface

Gently remove pills with a fabric shaver or cashmere comb. Avoid excessive friction during wear.

Coat loses shape after cleaning

Ensure the garment is dried flat according to care instructions. Professional cleaning is recommended for best results.

Belt does not stay tied

Ensure the belt is tied securely. Consider a small fabric-safe pin to secure the knot if it consistently comes undone.

Ribbed collar appears stretched

Avoid snagging the ribbed texture. If stretching occurs, gentle steaming may help it regain some shape.
