And after dry cleaning, I leave our wool coats hung in the closet until we need them again (sans plastic). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-care-a-wool-coat#post-272152 Thu, 30 Dec 2010 15:45:33 +0000 londonkiwi (now back in NZ) 272152@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Moths - I have some cedar hangers in my wardrobe, but have never had a problem with moths.</p> <p>Waterproofing - have never sprayed my coat, but then I always carry an umbrella and am able to hang it up at work if it gets damp. If it is too windy for an umbrella, then I would choose a different coat.</p> <p>Storage - at the end of each winter I have my coats drycleaned and then hang them in a wardrobe bag. I think that it is important to get one that has some sort of ventilation holes, so that air can circulate. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-to-care-a-wool-coat#post-272150 Thu, 30 Dec 2010 15:37:32 +0000 cloud9 272150@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1.

Which particular brand do you use? Is it the same one used on suede?<br /> 3. Storage. Just hanging in closet off season? In a sealed bag? </p>
