Good idea. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/clothes-care-collection#post-2302708 Tue, 17 Jan 2023 15:58:10 +0000 Val MN 2302708@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Small pointy scissors for clipping stray threads and removing itchy tags. (If he doesn’t already have them in the toiletry kit or something.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/clothes-care-collection#post-2302689 Tue, 17 Jan 2023 15:14:37 +0000 Angie 2302689@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you've got it covered now!

Encourage him to clean and treat any boots before putting them away for the summer.</p> <p>Speaking of summer storage, what about some cedar (blocks or sachets) for any woolens he’s acquired? Moth damage is the worst! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/clothes-care-collection#post-2302587 Tue, 17 Jan 2023 00:54:14 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2302587@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Indigoprint, a sewing kit is an excellent idea! </p> <p>ST, I also have been “thinking about” a Steamer for years. I’ll pay attention to the fabrics he gets and keep that in mind for a bday/Xmas gift (he complained that the stuff I got him this year, after giving sturdy practical ideas to all the family members, were too whimsical). </p> <p>Roberta, good ideas. Thanks. </p> <p>Minaminu, can you show me what kind of clothes brush you mean? </p> <p>Sisi, he is a bit of a minimalist, so I appreciate your example. </p> <p>Dee, learning to cook will be when he’s out of the dorm room. I’ll keep the apron in mind for then.</p> <p>Thanks, everybody, for keeping him spiffy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/clothes-care-collection#post-2302584 Tue, 17 Jan 2023 00:27:21 +0000 Indigoprint 2302584@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If he does not already have it, a sewing kit. Enough to replace a button... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/clothes-care-collection#post-2302580 Mon, 16 Jan 2023 23:20:25 +0000 Roberta 2302580@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A stain stick and a lint roller! They both last a good long time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/clothes-care-collection#post-2302578 Mon, 16 Jan 2023 22:32:39 +0000 Minaminu 2302578@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>a brush - effective in removing lint and dust and maintain clothes healthy. I used it daily for coat, trousers and sometimes cotton shirts and it does make a great difference! Separate brush for shoes is also used daily.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/clothes-care-collection#post-2302573 Mon, 16 Jan 2023 21:26:08 +0000 Anonymous 2302573@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Could he use a clothing steamer?<br /> *disclaimer I don't own one rn but planning to get </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/clothes-care-collection#post-2302524 Mon, 16 Jan 2023 16:41:32 +0000 Dee 2302524@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I always have “Tide to go” on hand, it’s been pretty helpful blotting out stains practically on the spot. Also wearing an apron while cooking has protected my clothes from any mishaps too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/clothes-care-collection#post-2302502 Mon, 16 Jan 2023 15:22:06 +0000 Sisi 2302502@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I discovered the wipes only recently thanks to a friend ! They work really well. I have always used their equivalent in spray. I think that all what you mentioned is more than enough for the self-care of one's clothes /shoes.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/clothes-care-collection#post-2302496 Mon, 16 Jan 2023 15:01:43 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2302496@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>When my son arrived in Berlin for a visit, he was excited to show me his new long coat, and was also concerned that someone had spilled hot chocolate near the hem of it. Laundry wipes made quick work of that. I’m happy he wants to take care of his things. </p> <p>I want to assemble a little clothing care kit for him, am thinking of a Flip-Fold (he’s been asking for his old one, which is small), a suede brush and water-resistant spray for his new boots, and a de-fuzzer. The set of four tools on today’s blog post looks cool, but he has half a dorm room, so I don’t want to overwhelm him with stuff. </p> <p>What tools do you find really useful to take care of your clothing? </p>
