Tips To Help Make Your Clothes Last Longer

February 18, 2020 by Grant Leave a Comment

The clothing industry is now gearing towards sustainability. It’s important that you also do your share by making sure that you don’t keep on purchasing clothes that you don’t need. You also need to find a way to extend the life of the clothes that you already bought. These are some tips to help you make your clothes last longer.

Deal with stains immediately

When you have stained clothing, you might decide to throw it away. The stains are too distracting, and you don’t want to wear the clothes anymore. To prevent stains from sticking on your clothes, you need to deal with them as soon as possible. Dab your clothes with a dry napkin, or pour water onto the affected area so that the stain will dilute. You can also invest in a stain removal pen which is now popular. The pen helps prevent the stain from permanently sticking to your clothes. You still need to wash the garment, but it won’t be that difficult anymore.

Choose the right cleaning agent

It’s also important that you choose the appropriate cleaning agent to ensure that your clothes won’t get destroyed. When you use chemicals that stain, or cause fading, you won’t be able to use your clothes anymore.

Read the fabric care label

It also helps if you read the fabric care label located somewhere in your clothes. This label provides you with information on how you should properly wash the clothes. You will also receive information on what to avoid to prevent the destruction of your clothes.

Sort your clothes when washing

It helps if you group your clothes according to purpose or fabric when washing. It’s a lot easier for you to finish the job when you properly sort the clothes. You will also prevent potential damage to the material. Grouping the clothes according to colour will also prevent stains. Make sure that you separate white clothes since they could get stained due to the presence of dye in coloured clothes.

Use a mesh bag when washing delicates

If you use a washing machine to clean your clothes, you need to ensure that you separate the delicate items. Your undergarments, socks, handkerchief, and other sensitive materials will easily damage when you place them directly in the washing machine. A mesh bag will help preserve the integrity of these garments.

Be careful with your clothes

Make sure that you don’t rush when putting on your clothes since you might tear the fabric. It’s true especially if you use clothes made from sensitive materials. You also need to purchase clothes in the right size. Otherwise, you will force yourself into the clothes and possibly damage them.

Apart from these tips, it also helps if you have a fitted wardrobe. Organising your clothes will be easier with a customised wardrobe. You won’t find it difficult to locate what you need. Now that you have found a way to extend the life of your clothes, you won’t have to keep buying new ones.
