Rest between wears
Give a suit at least a day off between wears so the wool can recover its shape. Rotating two or three suits makes each last far longer.
A custom garment is an investment: treat it like one and it will serve you for years. A few simple habits make all the difference.

A soft garment brush after each wear lifts dust and lint. Dry-clean sparingly, a few times a season, as harsh solvents wear out cloth faster than wearing it does.
Use a wide, contoured wooden hanger for jackets and clip trousers by the cuff so they hang straight. Skip the wire hangers.
A steamer relaxes wrinkles without crushing the weave. If you must iron, use a press cloth and low heat.
Blot spills immediately with a clean, damp cloth, never rub. For anything stubborn, leave it for your tailor or cleaner.
Before storing, make sure garments are clean, then use breathable garment bags and cedar to deter moths. Never store in plastic long-term.
