I just hand brush after wearing.
Is there any concern about long-term wear on the fabric from all that friction of brushing? Will it cause pilling, frizzing, or fraying over the course of many years? I want to be sure my good wool kilts could be heirlooms in 30 or 40 years. Will brushing or vacuuming with a brush attachment affect this?
