Uniform Care & Maintenance Advice

To keep the blazer in pristine condition throughout the school year, machine wash inside out on a gentle 30°C or 40°C synthetic cycle using mild detergent. Hang immediately on a broad suit hanger to dry naturally and minimize creases. A light steam or cool iron under a damp pressing cloth will easily refresh the fabric, keeping the collar and lapels sharp for Monday morning.
