How to freshen-up musty ski wear
If, like me, you’ve been caught unawares by the length and depth of Britain’s cold snap, no doubt you won’t be prepared for it in terms of your wardrobe.
This morning before attempting to dig my neighbours car from underneath 6innches of snow I thought I’d do the sensible thing and get out my ski-wear. I’m unfortunately not going skiing this year which means my gear has been in storage for the last 12 months. And it certainly smelled like it it’d been in storage for the last 12 months – all damp and musty.
That’s where a refresh function comes in handy.
Without the time to air your clothes, wash them properly or take them to the dry cleaners, a refresh function can be a great asset to any household. The refresh function features on many tumble dryers including the Indesit IDV65 vented tumble dryer allowing you to simply freshen up your clothes quickly.
It works by tumbling fabrics without heat to simply air them and get rid of odours. Great for bulky items such as ski wear which are worn infrequently, can’t be washed very easily and often require dry cleaning. It is also unlikely to affect the waterproof quality of the items.
In addition to clothes which have been kept in storage the refresh programme is great for freshening clothes worn in a smokey environment or which have absorbed food smells. Because this is not a full wash it saves energy whilst still allowing you to enjoy clothing which is as fresh as a daisy!
