Storage & Care

Caring for your garments with love and patience not only extends their lifespan but also allows them to become a cherished part of your personal narrative. These pieces can weave themselves into your most precious memories. To help you keep your Mångata products in great condition, we encourage you to read and follow these essential care guidelines. 

            FULL-GRAIN LEATHER

            For crafting our restraint sets, including UNO, URANIA, MAYLA, as well as our entire men's collection, casual belts, corsets, chokers, bags, and harnesses, we exclusively utilize full-grain leather. Full-grain leather is regarded as the most traditional, sought-after, and premium quality leather available, making it a cornerstone of our craftsmanship.

            Distinctive Pattern:Its natural imperfections, including scratches and grains, bestow a one-of-a-kind and esteemed character to the leather.
            Pull-Up Effect:This effect is brought about by the movement of oils and pigments within the leather due to capillary action. It is especially noticeable in areas with bends and curves.
            Limited Water Resistance and High Absorbency:When exposed to moisture, it becomes more pliable and prone to deformation. However, excessive moisture can potentially diminish its decorative attributes, such as color, texture, and overall structure.

            Dark, Cool Storage: To maintain the quality of products crafted from full-grain vegetable leather, store them in places away from direct sunlight. This precaution helps prevent fading and color loss over time.

            Avoid Tight Spaces: Refrain from storing items in cramped or tightly enclosed spaces. This precaution helps prevent any potential deformational damage.

            Gentle Cleaning: If cleaning is necessary, use only a soft cotton cloth to gently wipe the product.

            Avoid Contact with Water and Harsh Substances: To preserve the integrity of the leather, steer clear of contact with water and avoid exposure to sharp or hard objects. Additionally, prevent contact with the following chemicals:

            • Acids
            • Oils
            • Solvents
            • Gasoline
            • Shoe polishers

            CORRECTED GRAIN LEATHER

            We use corrected grain leather to make NELLIE and AURA restraint sets, as well as some blindfolds and gags

            • Not water-repellent, yet exhibits low absorbency. Patent leather, in particular, provides maximum protection against moisture.
            • Offers greater resistance to mechanical damage, including scratches, with patent leather being especially resilient. Nevertheless, proper care is essential to maintain its quality.

            BIFLEX AND MESH FABRIC

            We strongly recommend hand washing your textile garment, but machine washing is also an option. When using a machine, select the "Delicate" mode at 30°C. Avoid machine wringing; instead, gently wring out excess water by hand or place your bodysuit in the bathtub to allow water to drain naturally.

            Please note that exposing elastic garments to hot water can cause them to lose their elasticity.

            Avoid drying biflex and mesh fabric in direct sunlight, on heaters, or radiators. Lay the item flat horizontally to air dry, ensuring it retains its shape and quality.

            LATEX

            1. Polish for Shine: Prior to putting on your latex item, use a special latex polisher to enhance its shine and luster, giving it that captivating glow.
            2. For Lingerie Sets: If you're wearing an Anoeses lingerie set that covers smaller areas of your body, such as a bra and panties, you may not require lubrication. These pieces are designed for easy application without the need for additional substances.
            3. Latex Garments (Stockings, Bodysuits, Tops, Leggings, etc.): For larger latex items that are skin-tight, like stockings, bodysuits, long-sleeved tops, or leggings, it's advisable to apply a small amount of latex-friendly lubricant. This will enhance comfort and make the application process smoother.
            4. Wetlook Spray: Consider using a wetlook spray for a sexier appearance and a captivating wet look.
            5. Light or Semitransparent Colors: If your latex garment is in light or semitransparent colors, take extra precautions. Remove any piercings that may contain copper, as copper can leave brownish stains on light latex. Additionally, take a shower before putting on your latex item to ensure a clean, stain-free experience.

            By following these steps, you can ensure a comfortable and alluring experience when putting on your latex items.

            To ensure the longevity of your latex item, it's advisable to clean it promptly after each use. Follow these steps for proper latex laundering:

            1. Prepare Cleaning Solution: Fill a container with slightly warm water and add Latex Wash or a gentle, unscented soap. Create a soapy foam on the surface of the water.
            2. Gently Wash: Immerse the latex garment in the soapy water and gently move it around. Ensure the water penetrates and circulates through the entire garment. Continue this process until you feel that any remaining lubricant or residues are washed away. Use your fingertips to help remove stains if necessary, but avoid using sponges, as they may damage the latex.
            3. Whitish Stains: Latex garments of any color, except black, or semitransparent latex items may develop whitish stains after washing. This is normal and these stains will disappear as the garment dries.
            4. Special Care for Bright or Semitransparent Colors: If your latex garment is brightly colored or semitransparent, take extra precautions. Remove water from any hardware and wrap it in tissue paper before storage. Additionally, lightly dust the garment with talcum powder, as this can help prolong its life.
            5. Drying: Hang your latex item on a padded or plastic hanger, avoiding metal, and allow it to air dry naturally.

            By following these laundering instructions, you can maintain the quality and appearance of your latex items for years to come.

            Regenerate

            To ensure the longevity and quality of your latex products, follow these storage guidelines:

            1. Talcum Powder: Sprinkle talcum powder both inside and outside the latex product. This helps prevent sticking and keeps the latex in good condition.
            2. Dry and Dark Place: Store your latex items in a dry and dark location. You can either hang them or neatly fold them in your closet.
            3. Sunlight and Heat: Avoid exposing latex to direct sunlight and excessive heat, as these factors can damage the color and fabric.
            4. Prevent Metal Contact: Keep latex away from contact with metal objects, such as coat hangers, belts, body piercings, and other metallic items.
            5. Avoid Oils: Latex is sensitive to oils, which can leave visible stains. Be cautious with baby oils, sex oils, and greasy fingers around your latex items.
            6. Separate Colors: If you have latex items of different colors, store them separately. Especially ensure that black and light-colored latex items do not touch each other.

            By following these fundamental rules, you can maintain the glossy and spectacular appearance of your latex lingerie while turning care into a cherished ritual. Treating your latex products with patience and respect will ensure they continue to enhance your experiences and adventures.
