The world's "laziest" clothing maintenance manual

Small animals cut into "dormant mode" in autumn and winter, but fashionistas are gearing up at this time and all are out. Say goodbye to the hot summer day when you are sweating and wearing a T-shirt. Exquisite boys can finally have an interesting match according to the temperature and mood.

For the "half-baked" big boy, instead of uniform hoodies, baseball jackets and overalls, half the space is reserved for storing more delicate, expensive and "adult" items. As a "little white" in this field, you may have flipped through the meticulous but difficult "middle-class gentleman's demeanor" clothing maintenance strategy in men's magazines, which has been a little dizzy. ?

Why not do it wisely and simply? Voicer gives you a nice little manual. Instead of shouting "consumption degradation", it is better to extend the life of the wardrobe, which is also a gentle care for your wallet!

Find out the "small temper" hidden in clothes,

They are interrelated.

Every time we talk about boys' dressing philosophy, we always take pains to say "decent". In fact, the so-called appropriateness is far more than the exquisite collocation of shoes and socks, the subtle length of trouser legs, and how cuffs are rolled ... When a person goes home, everything gets along well, and they find that their hidden "small temper" and "living habits" are also decent.

?

This suit is the same as yours.

I need enough sleep to rest.

Please don't wear the same suit for two consecutive days, unless there is an accident. Simply put, there is an invisible "natural spring" in the fabric fiber, which will slowly return to its original state after being hung up and left standing. If you stubbornly wear a suit to a state of listlessness and bad color, in the long run, its self-recovery function will inevitably fail, which is also a process in which a dress slowly goes to the end.

Don't let the five-dollar hanger

Murdered your 5000 coat.

In such an era of popular "storage", it seems to be a fashionable life skill to put the most things in the smallest space, but please don't use a linear hanger with a recessed wire in order to put more clothes in a limited width wardrobe. There are obvious creases in hanging pants with this hanger, but if it is used to hang a T-shirt, 100% will be deformed, and two embarrassing "small tentacles" will be poked on the shoulders.

This kind of hanger is the "chronic killer" of coats, suits and other clothes, and the shoulder cutting structure here is very important. It is strongly recommended that you buy some hangers with generous and rounded shoulder structures at both ends for your beloved coat, so don't lose too much because of small.

A less pure fantasy about dry cleaning,

Dust brush is your good partner.

Don't think that a simple and rude dry cleaning will do everything. Any washing method will damage clothes. The difference is that for most clothes, the damage caused by washing is faster and more serious, and frequent dry cleaning will also kill the fabric. We suggest that you dry-clean your coat once a year and your sweater twice a year.

In fact, what you need is a handy dust brush, which can not only brush off the dust on the surface, but also drill the tough head into the fabric structure for deep cleaning. These dirty things that can even escape daily washing are often the "hidden culprits" who destroy clothes. Just like slapping a cat when you come home every day, you have to brush your coat habitually.

Jeans are strange things that don't need washing?

The less jeans you wash, the better. Jeans don't need to be washed, and the surface of jeans should be dirty ... Since many years ago, this "anecdotal rumor" has been very popular. Designer tommy hilfiger even said that "washing jeans is tantamount to murdering your jeans". They are just obsessed with the fading and deformation of jeans after frequent washing. But if you don't wash jeans often, the cloth will gradually harden and the dirt will be a little bit.

?

Add a little cleverness,

On the issue of washing and drying jeans

Turn the whole jeans upside down before cleaning them. Even in winter, the water temperature should not exceed 40 degrees Celsius, which can slow down the degree of fading and shrinkage. When airing jeans, if you want to work faster, there is another simple and ingenious way: hang upside down and clip your trouser legs separately.

?

Is the washing machine really the old enemy of good clothes?

After working for a year or two, you used to buy only fast fashion brands and start buying back some brand-name shirts (in the discount season when babies are everywhere). You treat them like lovers who live together to save rent, and you know their temper. They are afraid that machine washing will do them too much harm, but they complain every time they wash by hand. In fact, it is completely possible to wash shirts by machine, but you should make sure that all the buttons are unbuttoned, otherwise the stretching during machine washing will cause the buttons to loosen.

By the way, boys' shirts are the same all over the world, and the neckline and cuffs are always particularly dirty, so we should take the lead in rubbing special lotion on the neckline and cuffs before machine washing.

?

Don't treat your tie cruelly with an iron.

Generally speaking, the wrinkles in ties are very slight. If you iron it directly, it will hurt the material of the tie. The most suitable treatment is to put it on, untie it and hang it on the towel rack in the bathroom, so that it can "breathe" naturally and recover to its original state.

?

As long as you are careful, ironing clothes is not difficult.

Boys who have just started ironing often have the same complaint: why the newly ironed place is wrinkled again, and there is always a sense of frustration in robbing Peter to pay Paul. You need to pay attention to this. No matter whether you like the calm iron pie or the convenient hanging pie, ironing in one direction all the time can avoid secondary wrinkles.

Besides, please remember that clothes made of wool, velvet and corduroy should never be ironed. Before using the iron, you can wipe the ironing board with a clean wet towel to prevent it from being stained with fine dust and dirt, which will cause invisible friction during ironing, thus damaging the surface of clothes. By the way, try using ironing spray when ironing shirts, which can make the fabric more stiff.

?

Just give ordinary shoes general care.

In recent years, sports shoes are very popular and can be matched with almost all clothes. Various high-end fashion houses have also launched various expensive fashion sports shoes. You don't have to spoil them too much. Wipe it clean with a wet cloth first, and put some kitchen paper or newspaper in your shoes when storing it to absorb water and keep shape.

?

Don't forget, leather is also a kind of "skin"

The leather on the upper of leather shoes is actually a kind of "leather". Since you remember to put cream on your skin in autumn and winter, you should also remember to take them out of the shoe box regularly and put on a layer of shoe milk to maintain your feelings. The step of shoeshine is crucial: first, roughly clean the vamp with a big horse brush, then polish the shoe with a dry cloth, and then brush the shoe polish carefully and evenly with a small horse brush.

.........？ ...

We can understand that for those who clean the wardrobe every season, the sense of practicality of often wearing single items is far greater than the sense of possession of old trophies; Of course, I also understand those who regard the pile in the closet as part of their life experience.

An unremarkable plaid shirt, maybe you seldom wear it after the environment and mood have changed several times, but in a photo, you once embraced it harmoniously, so you don't want it to flow elsewhere.

Therefore, although there are so many small ways to keep clothes around for a long time, there is one that can't be replaced by any skill: treat them as old friends who talk about everything and wear them more to experience the beautiful, interesting and unrepeatable things in life.
