How to Care for Your Suit So It Lasts for Years – The Haussay Guide

Introduction
A quality suit is an investment. To maintain its flawless look and elegant drape, proper care is essential. At Haussay, we believe true elegance is measured not only by style but also by how long a piece retains its original beauty. Here are our expert tips to keep your suit looking impeccable year after year.


1. Let It Rest After Wear

After wearing your suit, let it rest for at least 24 hours before putting it on again. This allows the fibers to recover their shape and release any moisture.


2. Use the Right Hanger

Always use a wide, curved hanger to support the jacket’s shoulder shape. Avoid thin metal hangers that can deform the structure.


3. Brush Regularly

Gently brush your suit after each wear to remove dust and particles. Use a soft-bristle brush designed for fine fabrics.


4. Dry Clean Sparingly

Only dry clean your suit once or twice a year. Excessive cleaning can weaken natural fibers and reduce longevity.


5. Store It Properly

Keep your suit in a breathable cotton garment bag (never plastic) to protect it while allowing air circulation.


6. Steam, Don’t Press

Opt for a garment steamer instead of direct ironing to preserve the fabric’s texture and natural sheen.


Conclusion
With the right care, a well-made suit can last over a decade while maintaining its original elegance. These simple steps will protect both your investment and your image.
