Introduction
- This product is made of highly odor-resistant merino wool, which usually does not require a frequent wash.
- The fabric uses shrink-proof pure merino wool. It is machine-washable by “Gentle Course” or “Hand Wash Course” with gentle water flow.
- Tumble-dry at an upper limit of 60°C if necessary.
- When you store the item, use mothballs and/or vacuum storage bags to keep out insects.
- Merino’s fibers are short, and fuzz and pilling may appear, which can be removed by several washes.
What you will need:
- Neutral detergent for delicate clothes
- Laundry net
- Iron
How to Wash
1. Close the zippers, if any, to avoid damage caused by contact with metal parts.
2. Use a neutral detergent. Wool fibers are chiefly composed of animal proteins that are vulnerable to alkalinity, so avoid washing with alkaline detergent as it may damage the texture.
3. Set your washing machine to “Gentle Course” or “Hand Wash Course” with gentle water flow. This will shorten the stressful process of wringing and dewatering, and minimize the risk of shrinkage and deformation. Rinse well, if applicable, twice.
4. Do not pour the detergent directly onto the product; instead, please use the input port or wait after the water is filled in the wash tub.
5. To avoid damage caused by contact with other laundry or deformation caused by tangling, please wash it separately or use a laundry net.
How to Dry
1. Do not hang dry. Please dry flat in the shade in a well-ventilated place.
2. It is tumble-dried at 60 degrees Celsius or lower. Please use the dryer only when necessary. Dry separately with other clothes to avoid wrinkles.
How to Smooth out the Wrinkles
Wrinkles caused by washing and drying can be smoothened by ironing. Set the temperature to medium, use steam to moisten the fabric, then turn off the steam and apply it slowly to dry.
If Shrunk…
If the product is shrunk, it can be restored by ironing. Set the temperature to medium, use steam to moisten the entire product, and gently stretch it while holding it. Gently repeat the process until it is back to its original shape.
How to Store
Animal-derived merino wool is liked by moths. When you store the item, use mothballs and/or vacuum storage bags to keep out insects, especially when you store it in the closet for the next season.
1. Insect repellent is not required when stored in airtight bags. To prevent moth-eating and exposure to the outside air, air should be tightly removed.
2. When using a storage case, choose one with a lid that can be closed so that the case is filled with the insecticidal gas used in the mothballs. Do not stuff too many clothes into the case, but allow adequate space.
