Cotton, wool, linen: each fiber requires different maintenance. Here you will find some maintenance tips that will allow you to enjoy your All'Océan clothes for a long time.
Strictly observe the maintenance instructions. They give you an indication of temperature and appropriate wash cycle in relation to the composition and colors of the items to be washed.
The label sewn into your garment tells you if it should be washed or if it should be cleaned. You will also find the meaning of the various textile care symbols a little further down on this same page.
General maintenance tips
It is advisable to wash your items inside out to preserve pilling, bleaching and buffing. This protects the screen prints, accessories (buttons, beads) from mechanical attack.
Do not abuse the detergent, if you overdose it attacks the colors and fibers. Pay attention to the weight of the laundry in your drum as well as the hardness of the water in your area.
In order to preserve all the original properties of the garment, we strongly recommend that you follow the maintenance instructions on the composition sticker present on each of the All’Océan items.
For articles in pigment dye, a bath in white vinegar is strongly recommended to fix the color.
Dry the marinières and knitted garments flat to prevent them from relaxing.
