Are you coming home and start relaxing in your outdoor clothes, placing your bag on the nearest surface, dropping your sunglasses somewhere random, sitting around in the bedroom without changing?

你是否回到家後就開始穿著外出服裝休息，把包放在最近的地方，把太陽鏡隨意丟在某個地方，坐在臥室裡不換衣服？

情態副詞

There's nothing technically wrong with that until you start asking, why don't my clothes last as long as they should?

這在技術上並沒有什麼問題，直到你開始問：為什麼我的衣服穿不了那麼久？

If you're investing in pieces you love, then they deserve better care.

如果你投資的是自己心愛的物品，那麼它們理應得到更好的呵護。

And it often starts with the small habits we don't think twice about.

而這往往是從我們不經意間養成的小習慣開始的。

And especially if you're like me, someone who believes in investing in quality pieces for the long term.

尤其是如果你和我一樣，相信長期投資優質產品。

Knowing what contributes to longevity makes a big difference.

瞭解長壽的原因會帶來很大的不同。

Because the truth is, taking care of your clothes isn't complicated, it just requires a little more intention.

因為事實上，保養衣服並不複雜，只是需要多一點用心。

From dressing based on setting, minimizing unnecessary washing, to following care labels and maintaining leather properly, I'm sharing exactly how I keep my items in their best condition while still enjoying wearing them.

從根據環境穿衣、儘量減少不必要的洗滌，到遵循保養標籤和正確保養皮革，我將與大家分享我是如何在享受穿著樂趣的同時，保持物品的最佳狀態的。

The first principle is simple but powerful.

It's about being mindful of what you wear in different environments and how those settings can affect your clothes.

這就是要注意在不同環境中的穿著，以及這些環境會如何影響你的衣服。

When I get home, I don't stay in the same clothes I wore outside.

回家後，我不會再穿在外面的衣服。

The first thing I do is head into my closet and change into proper indoor wear.

我做的第一件事就是走進衣櫥，換上合適的室內服裝。

Something soft, breathable, and comfortable for relaxing.

柔軟、透氣、舒適，適合放鬆。

It could be a clean set of pajamas, loungewear, or even just a fresh tee and joggers.

可以是一套乾淨的睡衣、家居服，甚至只是一件新T恤和慢跑鞋。

This small ritual signals the end of the outside world and the start of home time.

這個小小的儀式標誌著外部世界的結束和家庭時間的開始。

More importantly, it keeps the dirt, bacteria, and general grime that naturally collect on clothes throughout the day from spreading onto my bed, couch, or anywhere else I unwind.

更重要的是，它能防止汙垢、細菌和一般汙垢從衣服上自然聚集到床上、沙發上或我放鬆的任何地方。

It also gives my outdoor garments a break.

這也讓我的外出服裝得到了休息。

They're not being sat on, stretched out, or wrinkled while I lounge around.

在我閒逛時，它們不會被坐在上面、拉長或弄皺。

Think of it like giving your clothes the rest they need to.

這就好比讓你的衣服得到必要的休息。

This principle applies to more than just the end of your day.

這一原則不僅適用於一天的結束。

If I'm cooking, I make sure to put on an apron.

如果要做飯，我一定會繫上圍裙。

The kitchen is one of the worst places for clothes you care about.

廚房是你最不喜歡的地方之一。

Oil splatters, steam, smoke, and water from the sink can all quickly ruin a fabric, especially delicate or natural fibers.

油汙、蒸汽、煙霧和水槽裡的水都會迅速毀壞織物，尤其是脆弱的天然纖維。

The same goes for cleaning or handling messy tasks.

清潔或處理雜亂的工作也是如此。

A simple layer of protection can be the difference between keeping something in great condition or sending it to the donation pile.

一層簡單的保護措施，就能讓物品保持良好狀態，還是送進捐贈堆。

So dressing based on setting isn't about being overly cautious or precious with your wardrobe.

所以，根據環境穿衣並不是要對衣櫥過分謹慎或珍視。

It's about creating a habit of intentionality.

Knowing when to change and how to protect your clothing is the foundation of keeping your pieces looking their best, season after season.

瞭解何時更換和如何保護衣物，是讓你的衣物在一季又一季中保持最佳狀態的基礎。

Now, most people assume that the more you wear something, the faster it wears out.

現在，大多數人都認為衣服穿得越多，磨損得越快。

But the real culprit behind fading colors, thinning fabrics, and warped shapes, it's not overwearing, it's overwashing.

但是，顏色褪色、面料變薄、形狀變形的真正罪魁禍首，不是穿得太多，而是洗得太多。

Every wash cycle puts stress on the fibers.

每次洗滌都會對纖維造成壓力。

Detergents, especially harsh ones, can strip color and natural texture.

洗滌劑，尤其是刺激性強的洗滌劑，會破壞顏色和天然紋理。

Heat and agitation are brutal on garments.

熱量和攪拌對服裝的影響非常大。

Not to mention, frequent washing uses a lot of water and energy, which isn't great for the environment either.

更不用說，頻繁清洗會耗費大量的水和能源，對環境也不利。

So here's how I approach this with intention.

A tank top, undershirt, or even a lightweight tee.

背心、打底衫，甚至輕便的 T 恤。

Under any delicate or structured pieces like button down shirts, sweaters, or jackets.

在任何精緻或有結構的單品（如鈕釦襯衫、毛衣或夾克）下都可穿著。

It absorbs sweat, body oils, and odor throughout the day so that the outer piece stays fresh longer.

它能全天吸收汗水、體油和異味，使外層衣物更長久地保持清新。

And when it's time to do laundry, that small simple base layer goes in the wash instead.

到了要洗衣服的時候，那件簡單的小打底衫就可以放進洗衣機裡洗了。

It's easy to clean, quick to dry, and inexpensive to replace if needed.

它易於清潔、乾燥快，而且更換成本低廉。

Try not to wear the same item on repeat, even if it's a favorite.

儘量不要重複穿同一件衣服，即使它是你的最愛。

Give your clothes time to rest between wears.

讓衣服在兩次穿著之間有足夠的休息時間。

It helps the fabric recover and prevents that one piece from getting worn down faster than the rest of your wardrobe.

這有助於面料的恢復，防止那件衣服比衣櫃裡其他衣服磨損得更快。

If I wear something for a few hours or just for a casual outing, I don't automatically toss it into the hamper.

如果我只穿幾個小時或只是休閒外出，我不會自動把它扔進籃子裡。

Instead, I hang it on a hook or rail and let it air out overnight.

相反，我把它掛在鉤子或欄杆上，讓它晾一夜。

Another habit that makes a real difference is how I handle items that fall somewhere between clean and dirty.

另一個帶來真正改變的習慣是我如何處理介於乾淨和髒汙之間的物品。

I have a dedicated basket just for lightly worn items.

我有一個專門的籃子，用來放一些輕度磨損的物品。

Especially socks, tees, or lounge shorts that I've only worn briefly, like for a few hours in the morning.

特別是襪子、T恤或休閒短褲，我只穿了很短的時間，比如早上穿了幾個小時。

These aren't clean enough to go back into the drawer with the rest, but they're also not dirty enough to toss into the washer.

這些衣服還不夠乾淨，不能和其他衣服一起放回抽屜，但也沒有髒到可以扔進洗衣機。

Keeping them separate helps me avoid unnecessary laundry cycles and cuts down on fabric stress.

將它們分開洗滌有助於我避免不必要的洗衣循環，並減少對織物的壓力。

所有這些微小的步驟都是累積起來的。

By washing smarter, not more often, you're not just preserving your wardrobe.

更聰明地洗滌，而不是更頻繁地洗滌，不僅能保護你的衣櫥。

You're also building a more thoughtful, efficient routine that treats your clothes with the care they deserve.

你還可以建立一個更周到、更高效的日常工作方式，對你的衣物給予應有的呵護。

You've seen that little tag stitched into every piece of clothing.

你一定見過縫製在每件衣服上的小標籤。

I used to just toss everything into the washer and hit the same cycle out of a habit.

以前，我總是習慣性地把所有東西都扔進洗衣機，然後用同一個循環。

Whites, colors, delicates, didn't matter.

I was in a rush or just didn't want to think about it.

我當時太著急了，或者只是不想去想它。

And then the regrets started stacking up.

That perfect fitting tee came out two sizes smaller, a wool sweater peeled beyond recognition, and a pair of structured pants lost all shape.

那件完美合身的 T 恤穿起來小了兩個尺碼，一件羊毛衫脫得面目全非，一條結構感十足的褲子完全失去了形狀。

I've had to hand over so many pieces to my wife because they no longer fit me after a single careless wash.

我不得不把許多衣服交給妻子，因為它們一洗就不合身了。

Now, before I even load the washer, I check every garment's label.

現在，在給洗衣機裝水之前，我都會檢查每件衣服的標籤。

Not just a glance, but an actual read-through.

不只是看一眼，而是真正通讀一遍。

If it says cold wash, I make sure it goes in with other cold wash items.

如果上面寫著冷洗，我就會確保它和其他冷洗物品放在一起。

If it says hang dry or flat dry, I don't throw it into the dryer just because I'm in a rush.

如果上面寫著掛幹或平幹，我不會因為趕時間就把它扔進烘乾機。

If it says dry clean only, I set it aside until my next run to the cleaners.

如果上面寫著只能乾洗，我就會把它放在一邊，等下次去洗衣店時再洗。

These instructions aren't just suggestions, they're the manufacturer's best guidance for keeping that fabric looking the way it was designed to look.

這些說明並不只是建議，它們是生產商為保持織物外觀的最佳指導。

And it's not just about water temperature or how you dry something.

這不僅僅是水溫或如何烘乾的問題。

It's also about choosing the right detergent.

Wool, for example, is sensitive and needs a gentler formula than cotton.

例如，羊毛比較敏感，需要比棉花更溫和的配方。

這是一種習慣，也是一種尊重。

For the fabric, for the craftsmanship, and honestly, for the money I spent on those pieces.

為了布料，為了工藝，老實說，也為了我在這些作品上花的錢。

The final principle, leather needs care too.

Leather is one of those materials that tells a story.

皮革是一種能講述故事的材料。

It doesn't just wear, it evolves, it forms to your life.

它不僅僅是磨損，它還在演變，它與你的生活融為一體。

But that evolution only happens in a good way if you take care of it properly.

但是，只有當你妥善照顧它時，這種進化才會以好的方式發生。

After wearing a pair of leather shoes, I always dust them off first.

穿上一雙皮鞋後，我總是先撣掉鞋上的灰塵。

Just a quick brush or wipe to remove any dirt or grime that settled on the surface.

只需輕輕一刷或一抹，就能清除表面沉積的汙垢或灰塵。

Then I insert cedar shoe trees, not just to keep the shape, but to help absorb moisture and odor from the inside.

然後，我插入雪松鞋楦，這不僅是為了保持形狀，也是為了幫助吸收裡面的溼氣和異味。

Leather is porous and it holds onto sweat, so letting it sit without airing out can lead to premature damage.

皮革是多孔性的，會吸附汗水，是以不晾乾就放置會導致皮革過早損壞。

When I'm not wearing them, I store my shoes in their dust bags.

不穿的時候，我就把鞋子放在防塵袋裡。

The same goes for leather bags and small accessories.

Leaving them out exposed to sunlight or humidity is one of the fastest ways to ruin good leather.

讓它們暴露在陽光或潮溼的環境中是毀壞好皮革的最快方法之一。

For bags, I generally stuff them with tissue paper so they maintain their structure.

對於袋子，我一般會用紙巾塞住，這樣可以保持袋子的結構。

And I keep the straps positioned properly to avoid permanent creases or warping.

我還會保持揹帶的正確位置，以避免出現永久性的褶皺或變形。

Every once in a while, I apply a leather conditioner or lotion to keep the leather supple and moisturized.

每隔一段時間，我都會使用皮革護理劑或乳液，以保持皮革的柔軟和滋潤。

Think of it like skincare, but for your bag or your shoes.

把它想象成護膚品，不過是針對你的包或鞋子。
