If your shearling coat or jacket gets wet, let them coat dry
naturally. Don't place by a fire or other high heat source. Heat can
dry out the natural oils in the hides.
Do not wash your coat or jacket in a washing machine or put in a
dryer. Most shearling coats are meant to be dry cleaned. When looking
for a dry cleaner, make sure that they know how to properly clean
them. The process must include putting the natural oils back into the
hides. Without doing this process, the hides will dry out and the coat
will be ruined.
When hanging your coat or jacket use a sturdy, well shaped coat
hangar. Don't use a wire hanger that's going to put "pokies" in the
shoulders and don't hang it up on a knob for extended periods of time.
Avoid stain resistant treatments that are made of silicone. We
recommend Meltonian brand Protect-All. It will give you a layer of
protection without changing the color or finish.
Do not put adhesive stickers on shearling coats or jackets, as part of
the adhesive can either get left behind or the adhesive may itself
pull off some of the fabric.
Never place your coat or jacket right next to a open fire or other
strong heat source, such as a heater. The high heat from a fire or
heater can damage the coats.. Also, do not store them in direct
sunlight as it can bleach them over time.
When storing your coat or jacket, never put them in a plastic garment
bag for any sort of
