CARE AND MAINTENANCE GUIDE
- John Cooper’s Luxury Worsted fabrics are designed to last a lifetime, if cared for with respect:
- Washing: Delicate dry clean only at specialized cleaners.
- Ironing: Iron at medium temperatures (maximum 150°C), always using a damp cotton cloth to protect the worsted wool fibers and avoid shiny streaks.
- Tailor’s tip: Weighing just 310 grams, gravity is your best friend. Let the suit rest in the open air for 24 hours
- after use: any creases on the knees or elbows will naturally fade away.
*JOHN COOPER: THE VISIONARY WHO REVOLUTIONIZED SAVILE ROW
Active in the heart of London’s Savile Row since the mid-twentieth century, John Cooper was one of the most influential and revolutionary textile selectors and merchants in the history of global men’s elegance.
He is credited with a true luxury revolution: in the 1960s and 1970s, he was the absolute pioneer who pushed British textile mills to weave ever finer Merino wools, helping to invent and standardize the concepts of Super 100s
and Super 120s. Before him, men’s suits were stiff and extremely heavy; Cooper introduced the world to the modern concept of a lightweight, fluid, and luxurious worsted (Luxury Worsted).
Recognized by master tailors worldwide for his obsessive attention to raw materials, the John Cooper name on the selvedge certifies an elite fabric from another era, designed to meet the stringent quality standards of the world’s most famous tailoring street.
