Fabric Care Tips for Your Coats: Keep Them Beautiful for Years

At Coatique, we believe every coat — whether new or preloved — deserves a little love and care to stay timeless. Your coat isn’t just a layer of warmth; it’s a statement piece, an investment, and often a story waiting to be retold.

Here’s how you can make sure it stays as elegant as the day you got it.

1. Know Your Fabric First

Before anything else, check the fabric label or description of your coat.
Each material needs different care:

  • Wool Coats: Keep warm, but need gentle handling.

Understanding the fabric is the first step toward keeping it in perfect shape.

2. Let It Breathe

After wearing your coat, hang it in an open, airy space for a few hours before storing. This allows moisture and body heat to evaporate, preventing odors and mold. Avoid crowding your closet — coats need space to breathe.

3. Always Hang, Never Fold

Use a wide, padded hanger to keep your coat’s shoulders in shape. Folding can cause permanent creases or distort the structure, especially in wool and formal coats. If hanging long-term, cover your coat with a breathable garment bag (not plastic!) to protect it from dust.

4. Spot Clean Gently

For small stains, spot clean immediately with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid harsh rubbing as it can damage fibres.

5. Know When to Dry Clean

Most heavy coats — wool, tweed, or lined ones — should be professionally dry-cleaned once or twice a season. But over-dry-cleaning can weaken fibers, so only do it when needed.

These tips will surely help your coats to look beautiful for years.
