A new favourite piece has recently moved into your wardrobe. Not only in the spirit of sustainability, but also so that you can enjoy it for as long as possible, our short videos will show you how to care for this new item, what to do in case of a stubborn stain or how to make small repairs yourself.

CARE

High-quality fabrics require particularly gentle care. In the following short videos, our expert, Klaudija, who works in our in-house laboratory at the Bodelshausen, Germany headquarters, shows you step by step and in a comprehensive way, how you can care for your clothes sustainably for the longest possible time. Also, how to get rid of annoying stains and what you can do in case of pilling.

CARE

1. GENTLE HAND WASH – THIS IS HOW IT'S DONE
Do you want to enjoy your favourite garment for a long time? Then a gentle hand wash is often the right way to go. A little tip: always check the care label before washing.

2. HOW TO GET RID OF A STAIN IN NO TIME AT ALL
Help a stain! No problem at all! In our short video, we explain which stains should be treated in which way. Basically, the sooner you get rid of the stain, the better!

3. HOW TO GET RID OF ANNOYING LUMPS QUICKLY
For pilling, the quickest and best solution is a lint shaver. Here you can see how best to use this practical little helper.

REPAIR

If you wear your favourite piece often and with pleasure, then repairs may be necessary from time to time. These small repairs are also called repainting or artificial darning. Repairing is an old craft that has become very rare, but is still practised at Marc Cain in Bodelshausen. Jasmina is an expert in this field. She has been working as a reproducer at Marc Cain for 8 years and is happy to share her expertise with you step by step. Tip: A catch needle is helpful for sewing short threads - this should be selected according to the thickness of the yarn and is available in shops for approx. €5-10.
