WHAT IS MERINO WOOL?

Merino wool is a highly prized, very fine wool which is extremely soft to the touch.

It is naturally moisture wicking and antibacterial, meaning you can wear your slippers in all temperatures and keep your feet fresh and dry. Due to its structure, it creates a thin layer of air between the skin and the material, creating insulation which keeps you warm in cold weather and cool in warm weather.

 

HOW TO CARE FOR MERINO WOOL PRODUCTS

To refresh your felt slippers or other merino wool felt products, leave them in fresh air, by an open window or door. Avoid direct sunlight.

To wash your felt slippers or other merino wool felt products, we recommend hand wash only, in water no warmer than 86 degrees Fahrenheit / 30 degrees centigrade. To offer them some protection, you can wash them in the textile presentation bag in which they are delivered.

Felt products can lose their shape if you ring them out too firmly, so after washing, leave them to drain completely, gently blot with a towel, reshape while damp, and lay them out onto a surface to dry completely.

 

IMPORTANT

Do not dry clean.

Do not bleach.

Do not leave in direct sunlight, even to dry.
