Care Instructions

Your coat will stand up to just about anything as long as you care for it properly.

  1. LOVE YOUR COAT. Love your coat and it will love you, keep you warm, and stay with you for a very long time.
  2. NEVER BRING YOUR COAT TO A DRY CLEANERS. Unless you know 100% that this particular cleaner knows how to care for your coat don't risk it. Far too many wonderful playa coats have been destroyed by these establishments.
  3. Washing is hard on your coat. If possible vacuum or spot clean. With heavy use maybe wash 2 to 3 times a year with less use wash less often.
  4. When you do need to clean your coat do it on a nice day. Put it in the washer COLD water and a little light detergent, wash on gentle cycle. (If your coat is caked in playa dust add a little vinegar to help clean it out).
  5. When your coat is done in the washer take it out and dry flat till it is dry enough to hang dry. NEVER EVER PUT YOUR COAT IN THE DRYER!!! The heat will melt your wonderful fur into tiny plastic balls that will never come out. When dry lightly brush.
  6. Keep coat away from open flame, heaters, and radiators. HEAT IS BAD. Just like a dryer these things will turn the lovely fur into tiny balls that will never come out.
  7. Sun will fade fabrics if they are exposed for long periods of time. When you aren't wearing your coat keep it in the closet away from sunlight.
  1. Love your kimono, take care of your kimono and it will bring you years of style!
  2. If your kimono has fur please follow coat care instructions.
  3. Your kimono is machine washable. Machine washing is hard on all fibers. Please only wash your kimono when it really needs it.
  4. When washing use COLD water and gentle cycle.
  5. You may use a dryer to dry your kimono, but PLEASE still use low heat. Hang drying is always best.
  6. To get rid of any lines or wrinkles your may iron your kimono. Please use low heat.
