The Ventile® Jacket Care Guide

We've got a few tips to help you keep your Ventile® Jacket looking as good as the day it arrived. Nothing complicated, but it's the key to longevity.

Your best bet is professional dry cleaning.

It's a small outlay, but it guarantees a proper deep clean. You don't need to go that often; once a year will do the job nicely.

A word to the wise: always check your clothes before you leave the dry cleaner's. Once you've left the premises, you're accepting any potential damage caused during cleaning. If you spot a problem while still there, it's the cleaner's responsibility.

Keep your Ventile® Jacket on a hanger when you're not wearing it so it holds its shape for years to come.

In summer, you can even tuck it away in a garment bag and let it hibernate until the first chill rolls back around.

Since 1 January 2024, the AGEC law requires all textile brands to be transparent about what goes into their products so we can all have a much better idea of exactly what we're buying. We didn't wait for the legislation to do this, we actually lobbied for it, and we think it's an important step in the right direction to change the way our industry works. So here are a few extra details about the Ventile® Jacket:

• It's 100% recyclable after dismantling. If your time together comes to an end, your item can be fully recycled. That said, we'd always recommend repairing and/or handing it down to someone before recycling. Think charity shops and donations too.
• It doesn't contain plastic microfibres. Unlike a lot of clothing that sheds microplastics in the wash, it's been designed to minimise its environmental impact. Plastic microfibres are tiny particles that wreak havoc on aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems.
• It doesn't contain hazardous substances. It respects strict European standards aimed at eliminating harmful substances and chemical treatments for you, the environment, and the people who make it.
• It doesn't contain recycled materials. Sometimes we manage to incorporate recycled materials to further reduce the impact of our clothes. Unfortunately, that wasn't possible with this one.

We hope these tips help you look after your Ventile® Jacket, and that it'll be by your side for years to come wherever you go.
