Discovering a hole in your favourite clothing doesn’t mean it’s destined for the bin. Ethical fashion campaigners recommend repairing and properly storing clothes. Tips include cleaning before storing, using breathable containers, avoiding direct sunlight, hanging properly, and rotating clothing to prevent damage. Washing clothes less and spot cleaning can also help preserve them. When it comes to dry cleaning, read care tags and consider alternatives like gentle hand washing. Assess damaged items to determine if they are repairable or should be upcycled, donated, or recycled. For shoes, proper care includes rotating pairs, regular cleaning, and prompt repairs by a professional cobbler.
