How to find the right Garment Covers AI guide
Written by an AI model from its trained knowledge.
What the AI looks for in Garment Covers
- Breathability
- For storage longer than a trip, choose cotton, canvas or non-woven breathable fabric, not sealed plastic. Plastic traps humidity, which can cause mildew and yellowing on natural fibres.
- Length
- Bag length should exceed the garment's hanging length: suit or shirt length, or a longer dress or coat length. Short bags leave hems exposed to dust and moths.
- Gusset
- Use a gusseted (expandable-width) bag for coats or several suits. Flat bags crush lapels and shoulders on bulky garments.
- Closure
- Full-length zipper with a protected hanger opening. Moths and dust get in through gaps at the top and along open sides.
What to avoid
- Dry-cleaner poly bags for long-term storage
- Storing clothes in covers before cleaning them, since stains and body oils attract moths
