Wool is a fantastic material that has natural dirt and bacteria resistance. Therefore, wool does not need to be washed after each use. Hang up and vent instead. Too much washing deteriorates the wool's properties and wears out the garments unnecessarily.

• Feel free to use a laundry bag that protects your garments. We sell the laundry bag GuppyFriend in our own stores and here in the webshop. When cleaning the bag and filter in the machine, make sure you wipe clean and dispose of the lint in the trash.
• Wash with a gentle program or wool program, maximum 30 degrees.
• Preferably use wool detergent and be sure to use the correct dosage. Buy wool detergent. If you do not have detergent for wool, you can use mild environmentally certified detergents. Then choose a detergent without enzymes that has a neutral pH.
• Avoid bleaches, alkaline substances that raise the pH value and enzymes such as proteases or amylase because some enzymes break down proteins and fats in the wool. This also applies to silk.
• Avoid fabric softener. In addition to being bad for the environment, it impairs the garment's performance, especially moisture transport and drying time.
• Do not tumble dry, in addition to being bad for the environment, wool garments are sensitive to high heat.
• Shape the garment after washing and let it dry flat on, for example, a towel.

Ours shell layers with membrane can be in 2, 2.5 or 3 layers. How one shell layers is structured differs slightly depending on how many layers it has. A two-layer shell always has a loose lining on the inside to protect the membrane. One in 2.5 layers is a lighter shell consisting of an outer fabric laminated with a membrane which then has a protective layer printed on the inside of the membrane closest to the skin. 3-layer shell consists of an outer fabric laminated with a membrane and a thin knitted or woven fabric on the inside. This makes 3-layer shells more durable than 2.5 layers, but usually a little heavier.

• Air clothes instead of washing if the clothes are not too dirty. You save water, energy and it makes the clothes last longer. However, if you have used the garment in salt water, if it has become really dirty or sweaty, you should wash it. Otherwise, the ventilation in the garment may deteriorate and moisture may even leak in through the dirt. Salt and dirt can also damage the taping at the seams.
• Use our laundry bag. It is important when washing synthetic clothes as it protects your garments and prevents microfibers from leaking out. When cleaning the bag and filter in the machine, be sure to wipe clean and dispose of lint in the trash. Never rinse the laundry bag with water as the fibers can then end up in lakes and oceans.
• Wash at a maximum of 40 degrees.
• There are special detergents for shell layers, but it usually works just as well with the most common varieties. Choose mild environmentally certified detergents and make sure you use the right dose. Buy detergent and impregnation.
• Avoid fabric softener. In addition to being bad for the environment, it degrades the garment's performance.
• Hang dry, but add heat to the garment after washing so that the water-repellent surface of the outer fabric is reactivated. Use a heating cabinet, dryer or iron for about 20-30 minutes, just make sure to keep an eye on the heat so the garment doesn't melt.
• You can strengthen the impregnation in the garment with a wash-in or spray that you can find in the webshop or in our stores.

When washing clothes made of synthetic materials, it is especially important to prevent the spread of microfibres in the water by using a laundry bag.

• Avoid fabric softener. In addition to being bad for the environment, it impairs the garment's ability to transport moisture and inhibits the quick-drying properties.
• Do not tumble dry, it wears out both the clothes and the environment unnecessarily. Most synthetic garments dry quickly anyway.
• Hang dry.

Lined synthetic garments

Our lined garments consist of an outer fabric and an inner fabric, with insulating synthetic lining from Primaloft in between. There are many advantages to using Primaloft's synthetic lining, including not having to tumble dry the garment with balls to puff it up after washing. It dries faster than down and does not smell when wet.

Lyocell is a regnate fiber and is produced from cellulose from wood. We only use TENCEL™, which are lyocell fibers produced by Lenzing to ensure that the raw material is taken from certified sustainable sources. The fiber is naturally biological biodegradable and the process of converting the wood pulp into cellulose fibers is a closed process with a high degree of recovery (99%) of the spinning liquid. Lyocell is a cool and soft material with high comfort as it can absorb a high amount of moisture from the body.

To care for your lyocell garments, we recommend that:

• Wash cold, no more than 30C in a very fine wash.
• Air rather than wash to save on both the clothes and the environment. Knitted lyocell materials have natural shrinkage after washing.
• Gently reshape the garments after washing.
• Do not store or dry the garments on hangers to avoid deformation.
• Do not tumble dry and wash with similar colors.
