Care & Instruction

Care & Armor Maintenance – Preserve the Power of Your LWNIX Gear

At LWNIX, we believe that every piece of apparel you wear is more than clothing—it's modern armor forged in the spirit of the Vikings. With the right care, your garments and accessories will remain as bold, durable, and timeless as the legends that inspire them.

To help you protect your LWNIX pieces and extend their life, we've crafted this guide. For the most precise instructions, always check the individual care label attached to your item.

GENERAL GARMENT CARE – KEEP YOUR GEAR BATTLE-READY

1. Follow the Runes (a.k.a. Labels)
Each piece bears its own instructions—read the care label first for guidance tailored to the fabric and design.

2. Gentle Cleansing Rituals
Use cold or lukewarm water on a gentle machine cycle. This protects fabric strength and prevents color loss.

3. Choose Mild Detergents
Skip harsh chemicals and bleach. Opt for pH-neutral formulas to preserve prints and fibers.

4. Separate the Clans (Colors)
Wash darks and lights separately to avoid unwanted dye transfer.

5. Respect the Machine's Limits
Don't overload your washer. Your gear needs space to move and clean properly.

DRYING – DRY LIKE A WARRIOR

Air Dry When Possible
Lay flat or hang on a rust-proof hanger, away from direct sun. This keeps the garment's form and color intact.

Use Machine Drying with Caution
Only tumble dry on low heat if your care label allows. High heat can weaken fibers and fade the fiercest prints.

IRONING – POLISH YOUR ARMOR

• Check Your Label for the recommended heat level.
• Keep the Blade (Iron) Clean to avoid residue marks.
• Iron Inside Out to protect bold graphics and embellishments.
• Use a Press Cloth for delicate materials like wool or silk.

STORAGE – HONOR YOUR GEAR

Clean Before You Stow

Always store clean and dry garments to prevent mildew or pest damage.

Use the Right Hangers
Padded for delicate items, sturdy for heavier pieces. Avoid flimsy wire hangers—they distort shapes.

Fold Knitwear

Hanging stretches it out. Fold instead to maintain structure.

Guard from Light & Dust

Keep in cool, dry places. Use garment bags for special or seasonal items.

MATERIAL-SPECIFIC CARE – BY THE FABRIC OF THE NORTH

• Cotton: Machine wash cold-warm. Tumble dry low. May need light ironing.
• Linen: Cold gentle wash. Best air dried. Iron while damp if needed.
• Polyester: Wash warm, tumble low. Resists wrinkles, but avoid heat.
• Silk: Hand wash cool or dry clean. Air dry in the shade. Iron low with press cloth.
• Wool: Hand wash with wool-specific detergent or dry clean. Lay flat to dry.
• Denim: Turn inside out. Wash cold. Tumble low or air dry.
• Blends: Follow the most delicate fiber in the mix.

ACCESSORY CARE – GUARD YOUR VIKING TREASURES

Jewelry

• Store in a dry, airtight container.
• Avoid exposure to chemicals, perfumes, and lotions.
• Clean gently with a soft cloth.

Bags & Wallets

• Store in dust bags when not in use.
• Wipe spills immediately with a damp cloth.
• Avoid overloading to keep their warrior-worthy shape.

Scarves & Shawls

• Wash gently depending on the material.
• Air dry flat to maintain softness and form.

Belts

• Hang or lay flat.
• Avoid extreme bending.
• Treat leather belts with conditioner when needed.
