MATERIALS & CARE
Materials & Care
THE PLIÉ selects materials with a focus on function, feel, longevity, and considered alternatives to conventional leather and textiles.
Each material is chosen to support the form and purpose of the piece while maintaining the refined character of the collection.
Apple-Based Leather
Our apple-based leather is made in part from apple-derived material and combined with other components to provide structure, flexibility, and durability.
Subtle variations in grain, texture, and finish may occur and are part of the material character.
Care
- Wipe gently with a soft, damp cloth
- Allow to air dry naturally
- Avoid harsh cleaners, alcohol, solvents, and abrasive surfaces
- Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, heat, and moisture
- Do not machine wash or tumble dry
Textiles & Linings
Selected THE PLIÉ pieces may include recycled textiles, technical mesh, performance fabrics, micro-suede alternatives, or other considered materials.
Material composition varies by style and is listed on the individual product page where applicable.
Care
- Spot clean with a soft cloth
- Avoid soaking or prolonged contact with water
- Do not use bleach or strong cleaning agents
- Allow to dry away from direct heat
Hardware
Hardware finishes may naturally develop subtle changes with wear and use.
To help preserve the finish, avoid prolonged contact with water, fragrance, cosmetics, chemicals, and abrasive surfaces.
Wipe gently with a clean, dry cloth when needed.
Water & Weather
THE PLIÉ pieces are designed for everyday use, but they are not intended to be waterproof.
If your piece becomes wet, gently remove excess moisture with a soft cloth and allow it to air dry naturally. Avoid direct heat.
Storage
When not in use, store your piece in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Lightly fill bags to help maintain their shape and use the protective dust bag where provided.
Avoid folding, crushing, or placing heavy objects on top of the product.
Everyday Care
Thoughtful care will help preserve the shape, surface, and finish of your THE PLIÉ piece over time.
