GARMENT CARE

At Jarbo, we are not in the business of fast fashion.

From drafting a pattern, to hand-selecting the fabrics from all over the world, from crafting prototypes to adjusting the right fit in samples are all just a part of what it takes to create the perfect piece. This means that we care and love each style we produce. When you try on your new piece of our clothing we want you to be able to both see the attention to detail and feel the quality of the fabric and construction.

Because we put in so much time and effort into our designs we hope they will be worn and loved for years to come. To help you care for your clothes we have a few tricks from our years of experience with our fabrics.

When we are good to our clothes, they are good to us.

Cotton

Like many fabrics, there is no need to wash after every wear. To refresh your cotton, simply hanging and airing out can do the trick because natural fibers will release odors and wrinkles more easily than synthetic fibers.

See the label on your garment for specific care instructions. Our general recommendations are to hand or machine wash with cold to warm water on a gentle spin cycle with like colors. Hang or lay flat to dry. Iron on low.

Call us at 877-457-2464 or email us at info@jarbocollection.com for any questions about your garment.

A few tips to keep your Pima Tee as buttery soft as the day you bought it.

Wash in cold water with a mild detergent in small loads with similar colors.

Lay flat to dry. This will prevent your tee from stretching or warping as it dries.

If necessary, iron on cool. It is best not to use heat on cotton tee shirts with stretch as it will weaken the fibers over time.

Store your tee folded in a drawer. Hanging the tee may cause the neck and shoulders to stretch.

Goose Down

Goose Down is great for travel because it flattens down so well in a suitcase. Air travel shipments will also leave Down coats flat due to changing air pressures. Sometimes this leaves the Down a bit too smushed.

If you think your Goose Down garment has gotten a bit too flat, simply shake it out! Or toss your garment in the dryer on 'tumble' with no heat for 10 minutes, optionally add a tennis ball to agitate the feathers inside.

Goose Down fluffs up on its own, and sometimes the garments get extra fluffy when traveling in shipments due to changing air pressures.

With wear, our Down coats will relax and the feathers will settle.

If your coat is still too puffy, simply give it a wash. Use a gentle, cold water machine wash and low-heat tumble dry. Your Goose Down will have a more relaxed shape while still incredibly soft and in lightweight warmth.

Denim

Like many fabrics, there is no need to wash denim after every wear. Simply hanging to air out after a wear and folding will do.

Spot cleaning with cold water and mild soap is great way to make your denim last longer as every wash reduces the life of any cotton garment.

Generally when washing denim, we recommend machine washing inside out with like colors to prevent fading. Cold water in a gentle cycle is preferred.

Hang or lay flat to dry. Heat can damage the fibers and cause shrinking. Tumble dry on a low heat until just dry if necessary.

Linen

Not sure you love your linen yet? Our Premium Linens love being worn, and look their best after a few outings. Linen is meant to relax unlike a crisp poplin cotton shirt. Linen easily creases. Hanging up your piece while you shower is a great way to smooth out any wrinkles.

Like many fabrics, there is no need to wash after every wear. To refresh your linen, simply hanging and airing out can do the trick.

To wash, use cold to warm water on a gentle spin cycle. To dry hang or lay flat. Linen is a natural fabric and high temperatures can weaken the fibers.

Wool

Wool fibers have antimicrobial properties that naturally resist orders and dust. Hanging to air out is often all you need to refresh your piece.

To spot clean use a wool safe detergent (like Woolite) with cool to warm water. Lay flat to dry. Do not rub when spot cleaning as wool will be more likely to pill when rubbed.

For a full cleaning we recommend dry cleaning, but spot cleaning will extend the life of your wool garment.

Piling naturally occurs and can easily be removed with a pilling comb or the gentle use of a careful fabric shaver.

Cashmere

Like many natural fabrics, there is no need to wash after every wear. To refresh your cashmere, simply hanging and airing out can do the trick because cashmere is a natural wool with antimicrobial properites.

To spot clean use a mild detergent and cool water. Do not rub the knit together as this will increase likelihood of your fabric pilling. Lay flat to dry. Store folded in a drawer as hanging can stretch the fabric.

For a full cleaning we recommend dry cleaning, though spot cleaning will extend the life of your cashmere.

Piling naturally occurs and can easily be removed with a pilling comb or fabric shaver.

Leather

To refresh your leather hanging to air out is all you need. Gently spot clean with a damp towel.

Using a cushioned hanger to hang your pieces will avoid indents. Avoid using pant hangers as the clips leave indents.

Leather is basically like your skin and loves to be cared for with a moisturizer. Use a leather conditioner to soften.

Silk

Like many fabrics, there is no need to wash after every wear. To refresh your silk, simply hanging and airing out can do the trick.

Because of the delicate nature of silk, we recommend getting your silk professionally dry cleaned.

Iron on low or hang up in the bathroom during a shower to reduce creases.

Silk organza looks and feels wonderful when gently steamed or ironed at low heat.

General fabric and garment care:

We recommend spot cleaning and using mild detergents. Using low-to minimal heat on your garment will keep the fabric fresh and longer lasting.
