The benefits of wearing merino cashmere

The crease-resistant fabric holds shape and colour
Reactive natural fibre with outstanding thermoregulating and wicking properties
Odour resistant as good bacteria on the wool neutralises scent
Naturally sustainable and a carbon-neutral clothing choice

Wash Care

Hand wash* with gentle detergent, wool, or baby shampoo
Lay flat to dry on a towel
Apply a gentle iron with a slow steam
Do not tumble dry

*Why we use hand wash only merino cashmere

Machine-washable merino cashmere is treated with a heat-resistant plastic, which cracks as it is washed and tumble dried. Aggressive washing damages merino, causing the wool to pill more, lose its shape and appear worn quicker than caring for hand wash only fibres.

Overall, choosing hand wash only merino cashmere means items last longer and they’re more environmentally friendly.
