Caring for yak wool
For best care, we always recommend referring to the garment's care label.
- Yak wool requires gentle handling to maintain its softness and shape long-term.
- Hand washing is recommended. Water temperature lukewarm, max. 30 °C. Use a mild detergent designed for wool/cashmere.
Instructions:
- Turn the item inside out and soak it in lukewarm water with a mild detergent.
- Gently knead the fabric without twisting; rinse with cold water until clean.
- Gently squeeze and press out excess moisture (do not wring). Lay flat on a flat surface over an absorbent towel and allow to dry horizontally, away from direct sunlight and heat.
To maintain the material's shape and softness long-term:
- Prefer hand washing; a washing machine (even on a delicate cycle) can damage the fiber structure.
- Avoid strong wringing or twisting.
- Always dry the item horizontally; avoid hanging on a hanger.
