CARE GUIDE: BAGS

Leather Bags Fabric Bags

Fabric bags

Marimekko canvas bags come in many different materials and designs. Take good care of your fabric bag by following these simple instructions.

Washing

The proper washing method can be checked from the care label attached to the product. If there is a line under the washing symbol, it guides you to select a gentle washing cycle and a low spin speed. For products that can be washed, Marimekko recommends hand washing.

Correct washing temperature

Follow the recommended washing temperature, since washing at too low temperatures may cause unwanted colour transfer. It’s usually advisable to wash bags inside out to minimize the impact on the fabric’s surface and colours.

Strong colours

Some dye may come off the products, especially in the first few washes. Dark and brightly colored bags should therefore be washed separately or with similar colors in plenty of water. Soaking is not recommended for hand-wash bags.
