Care Guide

At Akolee Fashion House (“Akolee F.H” or “Akolee”), we believe in preserving the quality and longevity of your items. Proper care not only enhances their appearance but also ensures they last for years to come. Below are our recommended care practices for different product categories, with an emphasis on professional cleaning methods.

1. General Care Recommendations

  • Always check the care label attached to the product for specific instructions.

  • Store items in a cool, dry place away from sharp objects or rough surfaces that can cause damage.

2. Professional Cleaning (Recommended)

  • Dry Cleaning:

    • For delicate fabrics, tailored garments, or specialty items, we highly recommend professional dry cleaning. This method uses specialized solvents that protect the material and maintain its integrity.

    • Ensure your dry cleaner is experienced with the specific fabric or material type of your item.

  • Sneakers and Specialty Footwear:

    • Use professional sneaker cleaning services for premium or designer sneakers. These services often utilize advanced methods to clean, deodorize, and restore footwear without causing damage.

    • Avoid machine washing sneakers, as this can weaken adhesives and damage materials.

  • Bags and Accessories:

    • Leather and suede items should be cleaned by a professional leather care specialist.

    • For fabric-based bags, spot clean with caution or consult a professional cleaning service for best results.

3. At-Home Cleaning

If professional cleaning is not immediately accessible, follow these guidelines for at-home care:

  • Clothing:

    • Use cold water and a gentle detergent for handwashing delicate items. Avoid wringing or twisting.

    • Machine-wash durable fabrics on a delicate cycle with like colors. Turn garments inside out to protect prints and embellishments.

  • Sneakers:

    • Gently wipe off dirt and stains with a soft cloth or brush and a small amount of mild soap diluted in water.

    • Allow sneakers to air dry completely. Never use a dryer or expose them to direct heat sources.

  • Accessories:

    • For non-leather items, spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Pat dry with a soft towel.

    • Avoid submerging accessories in water, especially those with metal parts or embellishments.

4. Special Instructions for Akolee F.H. Products

  • Fabrics with Embellishments:

    • Always opt for professional dry cleaning to protect beading, embroidery, or other delicate embellishments.

  • Outerwear:

    • Coats and jackets should be professionally cleaned at least once per season. Spot clean in between as needed.

5. Storage Tips

  • Fold knitwear and delicate fabrics rather than hanging to avoid stretching.

  • Use padded or shaped hangers for tailored garments to maintain their structure.

  • Store shoes and accessories in dust bags or boxes to protect them from dust and light exposure.
