Clothing Care
We believe sustainability starts at home. Caring for your clothing in a sustainable manner not only extends their lifespan but also reduces your environmental footprint. Please adhere to the guidelines to ensure your garment stays in pristine condition:
Washing
Use Cold Water: Wash all your Saint Cult clothing with cold water rather than hot water. This not only saves energy but also helps preserve the fabric and colors.
Choose Eco-Friendly Detergents: Opt for biodegradable, plant-based detergents that are free from harsh chemicals, phosphates, and artificial fragrances.
Spot Cleaning: Treat stains immediately with natural stain removers or a mixture of mild soap and water to avoid a full wash.
Drying
Hanger Drying: Hang your garments on wooden or padded hangers to allow them to air dry. This helps prevent wrinkles and reduces the need for ironing.
Avoid High Heat: If you use a dryer, choose the lowest heat setting or delicate cycle to minimize energy consumption and prevent fabric damage.
Dryer Balls/Sheets: Use eco-friendly dryer balls/sheets to reduce drying time and soften fabrics without the need for chemical fabric softeners.
Ironing
Steam Instead of Ironing: Consider using a fabric steamer instead of an iron to remove wrinkles. Steamers use less energy and are gentler on fabrics.
Iron Efficiently: When ironing is necessary, use the lowest temperature setting needed to achieve the desired results. Iron only the areas that require attention like collars, cuffs etc.
Storage
Use Natural Materials: Store your garments in the provided Saint Cult cotton bags. They prevent dust accumulation while allowing the fabric to breathe.
Avoid Plastic Bags: Refrain from using plastic dry cleaning bags for storage. Opt for reusable and breathable options instead. Repair and Upkeep
Mend Early: Repair loose buttons, small tears, or loose threads as soon as you notice them to prevent further damage.
Donate or Recycle: When your garment reaches the end of its wearable life, consider donating it to a thrift store or recycling it through textile recycling programs.
By following the mentioned guidelines, you can reduce the environmental impact of caring for your garments while ensuring your garment stays in great condition.
