Fall is just weeks away - even though it feels as if it’s already here! With fall just around the corner, it’s time to bring out your Denver fur coat! Whether you have stored your coat for months (maybe even years) or it is still actively used and hanging in your closet, there are a few things you can do to prep your favorite investment for fall. 

Storage Removal 
Whew, time to knock off the cobwebs! Hopefully you don’t actually have cobwebs surrounding your fur coat, otherwise you will need a thorough cleaning. While that isn’t a bad thing, make sure that you are fully prepared for anything that it might entail. Once removing your fur coat from storage, we recommend that you hang the jacket in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. Give your fur some time to reset before wearing it out, cleaning it, or getting it altered/repaired. 

Light Cleaning
After a storage period, a light cleaning is always beneficial for your Denver fur coat. It is completely up to you just how light, or thorough, you’d like your cleaning to be. But we at least recommend a good dusting and visiting your local Denver fur coat store for additional assistance. A cleaning can make the difference between a comfortable and good looking jacket, and a jacket that looks worn. 

Check for Fit/Repairs
After cleaning, always give your jacket a good once over for repairs or alterations. If you have any rips, tears, or small imperfections that need to be fixed, be sure to do so before wearing your fur coat out in the elements. In addition, try on your fur coat. Your body might fluctuate from year to year, and it’s important to make sure your fur coat fits as you’d like it to. If you think you need some alterations, bring it in! We are happy to assist you in whatever you need.

Enjoy!
Once your jacket is ready, be sure to wear it as much as you’d like! Fall is the perfect time to get used to your fur coat, as it will typically be a little cooler at night. Take time to try out different looks with your fur jacket, and always remember to take good care!
