9:44 correction - You can iron SOME wool (like suits and suit separates), but knitwear is generally not recommended, or you have to be extra careful. The same goes for cashmere.
Popular in Europe, are iron steam generators. Phillips is one brand that produces them. I think it's best of both worlds. 1. They are easy to store. If you live in a flat, having a a steamer that you can store in a closet is nice space saver. 2. They do make more steam. Used both iron steamers and the kind You have on video. Iron ones have way more punch. On the other hand I've burned myself a few times. 😅 3. You have one device doing double duty. And belive me steaming iron is way nicer to use than traditional iron. Nice vid bud, keep it going.
Love this channel, man. Such great production quality, editing, and personality. And you're totally right about steamers. I've gotta upgrade to one of these standing models, but the real dream for me would be owning an LG Styler.
Wool can be steamed, and when done correctly, won't cause any damage (at least in my experience). Steamers are especially handy if you own a lot of wool garments because frequently washing/dry cleaning wool isn't great (to my understanding), or you have to hand wash, so steamers are great way to freshen them up. But from my research, it's generally recommended that you DO NOT steam leather.
The other day my Tommy Bahama shirt came back from the dry cleaners with a tear in the collar after being laundered . So I’ve been talking a closer look at streamers. For shorts how do you do collar and cuffs with a steamer? And what about the area around the buttons when they are wooden? Also the steamer you are using is $300? At what price point are you no longer wasting your time?
Collar and cuffs can be tricky. Easy to burn yourself. For collars I hold the tips and run along steamer head while steamer head is stationary. I wouldn’t worry too much about wooden buttons. Just don’t expose for too long. Concerning price of steamers - so you don’t need to spend $300. My previous steamer cost $120 it worked great and survived 4-5 years of really heavy use and little maintenance on my part. Perhaps all topics for another video.
Also, the best quality Nike or Adidas are going to be their current athletes' signature shoes. So if Anthony Edwards can run, cut and jump in them - they will likely last you years of walking up and down the street.
There is nothing more soul destroying than unfolding a massive awkward ironing board and using an iron that will more than likely be on too high a setting and destroy your clothes... steam all the way!

In harsh winter months I've used mine as a humidifier, and when I need to open up my pores it is very handy. As you said, versatile.

Just looked into these and they look pretty handy! Def worth further exploration. Thanks for the info!

Thanks! Appreciate that. And wasn't familiar with the LG Styler until you just mentioned it. Looks interesting and expensive.
Wow, this is a nice discovery. I love you Chanel, very educating, informative, and a little humorous lol.
Glad you enjoy it!
You sold me when you said I won’t need to dry. I tend to air dry and most my clothes turn out shit so I end up ironing it. Steamer gonna be nice
good information; i do use my iron and will start using my brand new steamer. Best of both worlds!!
What is the name of the steamer?
That one closed button at the top is a really particular choice.
Good for you!
Old money cholo style😂
Hi. Do you have a recommended steamer? So many options in the market.
What brand is this one?
Hi, what’s the name of the steamer? Thanks ☺️
It is a Jiffy steamer. Pricey when it comes to steamers, but there are many other affordable options that’ll do the job.
@@CoyoteSharpwhich model is that? The 2000?
Good video!
This man really sold me to buy a steamer 😂❤
Cotton and linen can clearly be steamed - but can wool and maybe even leather be steamed? With wool for example, will it cause shrinkage/felting?

@@CoyoteSharp thank you for the reply Mr. Coyote may you catch all the roadrunners your heart desires
I have a steamer and use it occasionally. But I’m worried that the steamer will pucker my suits and jackets so I don’t steam those items.

i'm sold
Cool video. I'd definitely clean the shoes, wash the laces

I like your style dude
Thanks!
I want a steamer with wooden handle now 😢
Sold !
It’s giving Ben Affleck

i didnt realize people worry about their t shirts being wrinkled...
I absolutely hate wrinkled clothes. I like a good drape and I like for my items to look their best. Wrinkling is so distracting and irritating to me.
