Iron Suits Without DAMAGING Them? | How To CORRECTLY Press Suit Jackets

About this video

Centeno teaches two methods for safely removing wrinkles from suit jackets without professional pressing. He explains the steaming method using either a travel or full-size steamer, and the ironing method using a pressing cloth to protect delicate fabrics. Centeno emphasizes proper technique, equipment, and precautions to avoid damaging jacket seams, fabric, and shape.

Key takeaways

• Centeno recommends steaming as the lower-risk method for jacket wrinkles, using distilled water and hanging the jacket on a wide-shouldered hanger while steaming in sections with an up-and-down motion
• Centeno advises always using a pressing cloth when ironing jackets to protect delicate fabrics like wool from scorches and shine marks, and to press rather than slide the iron
• Centeno cautions against over-steaming seams, ironing sleeve edges and lapels, and emphasizes spot-cleaning jackets before applying heat to avoid permanently setting stains
