By Imogen Matanle
Looking after your suit properly doesn’t have to be complicated. With just a few simple habits, you can keep your Batch pieces looking sharp, structured, and ready to wear at all times. Whether it’s your everyday go-to or saved for special occasions, this quick care guide will help extend the life of your suit and keep it looking its best.
This applies to all over materials. Whether you have our Linen suits, Cotton Blend or Wool Herringbone suit.
Why Suit Care Matters
A well-made suit is an investment, and the better you care for it, the longer it will hold its shape, colour, and overall finish. Proper maintenance not only keeps your suit looking fresh, but also saves you money in the long run by reducing the need for replacements or repairs.
1. Use a Steamer – Your Suit’s Best Friend
If there’s one tool every suit owner should have, it’s a steamer. A quick steam helps remove creases, refresh the fabric, and bring your suit back to life after wear.
Unlike ironing, steaming is gentle on the fibres and helps maintain the natural structure of the fabric. In just a few minutes, your suit can look as good as new, perfect for last-minute plans or busy mornings.
2. Always Dry Clean – Never Machine Wash
This is non-negotiable: never put your suit in the washing machine.
Suits are made from carefully constructed fabrics that can easily lose their shape and finish when washed incorrectly. Instead, opt for professional dry cleaning when needed. It’s the safest way to keep your suit clean without damaging the material.
3. Store It Properly to Keep It Sharp
How you store your suit makes a huge difference. When not in use, hang your jacket on a sturdy hanger to maintain its shape.
For trousers, fold them seam to seam over a hanger. This helps preserve a crisp crease and keeps them looking tailored and polished for your next wear.
Final Thoughts
Taking care of your Batch suit doesn’t require a lot of effort, just consistency. With regular steaming, proper cleaning, and smart storage, your suit will stay looking refined, wearable, and effortlessly stylish for years to come.
