Care Guide — Denim Up Studio

Every Denim Up Studio piece is made from reclaimed denim and vintage textiles — materials that already have a story. With a little care, your piece will carry that story for years to come.


🧺 Everyday Care

Spot clean first. For small marks or surface dirt, a damp cloth and a drop of mild soap is all you need. Gently dab — don't rub — and air dry.

Store thoughtfully. Keep your pieces away from direct sunlight and moisture when not in use. A cotton pouch or dust bag works beautifully.


🌊 Washing Instructions

When a deeper clean is needed:

  • Turn the item inside out
  • Wash cold on a gentle cycle — or hand wash
  • Air dry flat; avoid the dryer
  • Iron on medium-low with a pressing cloth if needed
  • Avoid bleach and harsh chemicals — they break down the fibers and fade the character of the denim

✨ Hardware & Embellishments

Gold-plated shell beads, lobster clasps, split rings, and zipper pulls are chosen for durability — but they appreciate a little love too.

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to water, perfume, or lotions
  • Wipe hardware dry if it gets wet
  • Store pieces flat or hanging to prevent stress on clasps and rings

🌿 Aging Gracefully

Upcycled denim is meant to evolve. Slight softening, fading at the folds, and gentle wear over time aren't flaws — they're the piece becoming yours. Each mark is part of the story.

That's the beauty of slow fashion: it gets better with you.
