Storage: Always hang on a broad, padded hanger to preserve the shoulder shape. Never store in a plastic bag; use a breathable cotton garment bag to allow air circulation.
Environment: Keep in a cool, dark, and dry closet. Avoid direct sunlight and heat, which can dry out the natural oils in the pelt and cause shedding.
Moisture: If the fur gets wet from rain or snow, shake it out and hang it to air dry in a well-ventilated room. Never use a hair dryer or direct heat.
Handling: Avoid pinning jewelry to the fur or carrying a heavy shoulder bag, as constant friction can create “bald spots” or matted patches.
