Professional Fur Cleaning

A sheepskin or shearling coat is a durable yet classic addition to any wardrobe. A popular choice for cold-weather garb since the earliest days of man, sheepskin is a favored material for the excellent insulating ability of its wool and its supple suede exterior.

Although they typically are sold for prices over a thousand dollars, an authentic shearling garment will maintain its supple luxuriousness and warmth for decades with proper care. Here are five tips for making sure your sheepskin lasts through the ages.

Fur Storage

1. Proper Storage – One of the most damaging things you can do to your shearling coat is to store it in a closet at home. During the warm summer months, the closets in your home heat up, causing the sheepskin to soften and deform around the hanger. Imagine the horror when you go to find your winter coat and find nothing but a dried out, deformed, moth-ridden piece of leather.

Luckily, this can be avoided by choosing appropriate storage. Unless you have a temperature and humidity-controlled closet at home, store your men’s furs with a professional furrier. Cold storage will keep your fur at the optimal temperature and humidity. This ensure it maintains its supple quality and is safe from pets like moths, mold, and mildew.

Fur Cleaning

2. Annual Cleaning – Apart from storing your coat, submitting it for annual maintenance is one of the best things you can do to maintain its quality. Keep in mind that most sheepskin coats are not machine washable. Instead, it would be best if you took your coat to a furrier or professional leather and suede cleaner for exceptional cleaning.

Fur Maintenance

3. Wear Tips – With a proper maintenance and storage plan in place, all that is left is to follow a few critical guidelines for wearing your sheepskin. Avoid sitting on the fur jacket in a way that could cause permanent wrinkles. Don’t pack your sheepskin in suitcases, stuffed closets or drawers, or getting bunched up.

When not wearing the coat, let it hang freely in a dry closet with plenty of air circulation. Use a garment bag to transport it and avoid wire hangers at all costs.

Store your fur garments in cold storage when you are done wearing it for the season or not using it. This is one of the most important steps you can take in preserving your furs. There are no rules or set dates in regard to when furs should be stored. Whenever it is warm enough outside to be done wearing a fur coat for the season is when you should put it in storage. By the same token, when it is cold enough to justify wearing a fur (depending on your furs individual level of warmth) bring it home from storage. (Usually when it is cold enough to wear a winter jacket, it is time to put on your mink coat). The more time a fur is in cold storage, the longer it will last. Professional Cold Storage facilities should have the following characteristics:

50-55° Fahrenheit is optimal, but any temperature under 56° is worthwhile. Moth and Vermin Free
