How to Care for Your Seaqual Yarn IEM Case

Quick answer

To care for your Seaqual Yarn IEM Case, spot clean with a damp cloth, avoid machine washing, and store it away from moisture. The unique upcycled fabric needs gentle handling to preserve its texture and glow details.

Step-by-step care routine

1. Empty and shake out debris: Open the case and turn it upside down. Gently shake to remove dust, lint, or earwax particles from the faux-wool interior. Use a soft brush (like a clean makeup brush) to dislodge stubborn debris. Common mistake: using a hard brush or vacuum nozzle can snag the fabric fibers.
2. Spot clean the exterior: Dampen a soft, lint-free cloth with cool water—never soak the fabric. Gently blot or wipe any soiled areas on the Seaqual Yarn exterior. For light stains, add a drop of mild soap to the cloth, then rinse the cloth and wipe again to remove soap residue. Avoid rubbing vigorously; the upcycled yarn can pill if over-scrubbed.
3. Dry flat away from heat: Place the case open on a dry towel at room temperature. Let it air dry completely before closing or storing your IEMs. Do not use a hairdryer, radiator, or direct sunlight to speed up drying. Storing IEMs in a damp case can lead to moisture damage to your earphones.
4. Protect the Lume glow details: The zipper pull and nameplate use Lume glow technology. To keep them bright, avoid covering them with tape or stickers, and do not apply any polish or coating. Expose the case to ambient light for a few minutes before use to charge the glow. If the glow fades over time, it is normal; recharging under light restores it.
