Garment care

Care guide

Proper care ensures your Aptavela linen clothing stays beautiful, breathable, and comfortable for years to come.

How to care for your linen clothing

Care instructions

  • Machine wash cold or warm on a gentle cycle.
  • Wash with like colors and fabrics (avoid washing with zippers or hook-and-loop items).
  • Tumble dry low or line dry to preserve the fibers.
  • Do not use bleach or fabric softeners.

Treatments

Wrinkles
Linen is a natural fiber and wrinkles are part of its character. If you prefer a crisper look, remove garments promptly from the dryer while still slightly damp and iron on medium heat while damp.
Stains
For tough stains, try spot treating with an oxygen-based bleach substitute or a mixture of baking soda and white vinegar before washing. Avoid chlorine bleach as it breaks down linen fibers.

How to care for linen outerwear

Care instructions

  • Air out after wear and wash only when needed to preserve the fibers.
  • Wash with like colors on a gentle cycle.
  • Tumble dry on low or line dry away from direct sunlight.
  • Avoid liquid fabric softeners, which coat natural fibers.

Treatments

Stiffness over time
Over time, detergent residue can build up and make linen feel stiff. To refresh it, run a wash cycle with 1 cup of white vinegar instead of detergent.
