Looking after your bespoke shirts

Let's face it, a bespoke shirt is an investment. At around £100 to £200 a go you want it to last longer than a few months. To help you on the way here are a few tips to keep your bespoke shirts in tip top condition.

1. Wash your cotton bespoke shirts in a washing machine at 40 degrees - any hotter and you will reduce it's life
2. Iron on setting number 2. Yes, i know setting 3 says Cotton, but it is too hot, cotton will iron fine with less heat - but do use steam or ensure shirt is slightly damp.
3. Hang the shirt up after each wear. If it has creases but you want to wear it again before the next wash then run the iron over the body again.
4. Remove collar bones after wearing.
5. Check all buttons for security before hanging, and repair or replace ny that need it.
6. Don't eat spaghetti whilst wearing your bespoke shirt.

That's all, not much too it, a good quality cotton bespoke shirt almost looks after itself.

A quality bespoke shirt deserves a quality hanger

When you have paid good money for a quality bespoke shirt then you don't really want to be hanging it in your wardrobe on some wire or plastic coathanger.

We have found the perfect solution from a company called the hanger project and here are the details from their website:

Available in both a standard 17.0 and wider 19.0 inch widths, our premium shirt hangers ensure that your shirts will look just as good when you put them on as they did when you first hung them in your closet.
