Cleaning your Navy Pea Coat
Important Information on Getting your Navy Pea Coat Cleaned
When it comes to cleaning a Navy Pea Coat, the most important thing to understand and know is DO NOT WASH IT. There are ways to maintain and keep your Navy Pea Coat clean, but washing it is not an option.
Navy Pea Coats are typically made of wool, which is a very heavy fabric and is also one of the reasons why you should not wash it. The heavy fabric is used to keep you feeling warm, not just to make it inconvenient when cleaning it. The reasons you should not wash a Navy pea coat is because washing it will cause the wool to shrink and the lining to not hold up. The Navy pea coat will practically be unusable once you wash it.
You may be thinking, "Well, what if I hand-wash it or use it on a delicate cycle?" It is advised that you do not even try this. While this may work with sweaters, it will not work with a Navy pea coat, and will still cause the coat to not hold up well.
To clean the Navy Pea Coat, you should follow the instruction on the tag and take it to a dry-cleaner and they can clean it for you for around 10 dollars. If taking your pea coat to a dry-cleaner is out of the question, then you can often find a home dry-cleaning kit that you use in your dryer.
