• Always air-dry merino wool garments
• Lay the item flat between two clean and dry towels, press gently to remove excess waterand then reshape it to its original form
• Lay down flat on a grill, so the merino wool item can dry and breathe
• Avoid direct sunlight and heat sources like radiators
• Never use a tumble dryer to dry your merino wool item (or any other woolen item)

• Iron the item inside out, this protects the outer surface.
• Use a low heat setting.
• It is advised to use a pressing cloth (or steam iron) to protect the fabric from direct contact with the hot iron.
• Avoid heavy pressure and prolonged contact with the iron to prevent damage.

• Make sure your merino item is completely dry before storing, to avoid attracting moths
• Preferably store flat, in a dry place, away from direct heat and sunlight
• Additionally, you can use a breathable knit storage bag
• If you want to hang your merino wool item, use rounded, rubber hangers or hangers with rubber ends to avoid the item slipping off

• Avoid rubbing as this can damage the fibers and spread the stain. Make sure you identify the stain first.  
• Oily or greasy stains: We recommend Terre de Sommières (an ultra-fine powdered clay from France known for its exceptional ability to absorb grease and oil stains from dry surfaces like textiles). 
• General stains: A solution of wool-friendly detergent and water can help. 
• Coffee, tea, fruit: Rinse with cold water and try a diluted detergent solution.

With wear, you might see the appearance of small pills or bobbles. These usually occur through friction, so you’ll find them under the arms, at the lower back and other areas that are exposed to friction. We advise you to de-pill merino (and other woolen items) with a simple knitwear comb. Do not use a razor or other sharp objects.

 A few tips:

• Before storing a merino item, make sure it’s 100% clean and dry. Food residues and skin cells attract moths. 
• Fold your merino item neatly, and if possible, use a zip-up storage bag.   
• Use scented essential oils or cedar wood to repel moths and protect your clothes; moths dislike the smell.  
• If you think you have clothes moths, make sure you vacuum and treat any storage area before you put clothes away.
