Ultrafine Merino requires considered care to retain its exceptional softness and tailored drape season after season.
The Gold Standard: While your care label permits machine washing, hand washing in cool water remains our definitive recommendation to preserve the fiber's pristine condition.
Machine Alternative: If hand washing is not viable, utilize a strictly cold, delicate wool cycle with a specialist liquid detergent, securing the gilet inside a mesh laundry bag to minimize drum friction.
Handling: Gently press out excess water. Never wring or twist the garment, as this distorts the fibers and causes irreversible felting.
Drying: Lay the gilet flat to dry, keeping it strictly away from direct heat sources or harsh sunlight.
Storage: Always fold your knitwear. Hanging Merino will stretch the fibers and compromise its tailored silhouette over time.
A note on care: While these guidelines help preserve your foundational layers, always check the garment's interior care label before washing, as instructions may vary.
