Care instructions
You can find information on how to care for your garments on our website in the MATERIALS AND CARE option of each item, as well as on the garment labels.

Here is some additional advice for each type of fabric used:

Cotton
Due to its hygroscopicity and morphology, items made from this fibre provide natural comfort and a pleasant feel, making it the ideal choice for garments that come into direct contact with the skin. It can be washed by conventional methods, provided that the colour and finish permit it, according to the symbols and instructions on the label.

Polyester
This is a very hard-wearing, versatile synthetic fibre, with low moisture absorption, that can accumulate static electricity. Easy care, it does not shrink or crease when washed, and it dries rapidly, although it can develop pilling. If this happens, pills can be removed by cutting the fibres.

Down and padded jackets
Garments with both natural fibres and synthetic fibres can be washed by machine. We recommend turning the item inside out and closing zips and hook and look straps. Drying is very important, to avoid the feathers clumping. You can use a tumble dryer.

Sunglasses
Sunglasses: All our sunglasses use lenses that protect from ultraviolet radiation (UV-A and UV-B) and reduce visible radiation, depending on the filter category indicated in the accompanying leaflet.

The category of protective filter on sunglasses is indicated on the sticker on one of the lenses of the glasses and the features are in the accompanying leaflet.

Out of Stock
We're sorry that the item that you are interested in is out of stock. Occasionally, depending on the style, items and sizes are restocked. On the product page, you can subscribe yourself to get notified when your item is back in stock.

Damages
We’re sorry that the item that you purchased is damaged. You can contact us via phone or mail and we'll provide you with a solution as soon as possible. Please do not send damaged items back to us without contacting us first. The item will be looked at by our customer service agent followed by receiving a return label (pre-paid) to ship back a damaged product.
