FAQs
Can I put this sweater in the washing machine?
No, machine washing can cause the wool and mohair fibers to felt, shrink, or lose their textured finish. Always dry clean or hand wash delicately.
Is mohair itchy?
Mohair is generally soft, but because it is a natural fiber, sensitivity varies by individual. The blend with virgin wool is chosen to balance softness and structure.
How should I store this during summer?
Store the sweater clean and folded in a breathable cotton garment bag, away from direct light and moisture.
Will the sweater shrink?
Wool and mohair are prone to shrinking if exposed to heat. Avoid hot water and tumble dryers.
What is the best way to remove a wrinkle?
Use a professional garment steamer at a safe distance, or simply hang the sweater in a steamy bathroom for a few minutes to let the fibers relax.
Troubleshooting
Visible pilling on high-friction areas
Gently use a fabric comb or sweater shaver to remove excess fibers, taking care not to pull the main knit structure.
Garment has lost shape or looks stretched
Lay the sweater flat on a towel, reshape it manually while damp, and let it dry completely. Avoid hanging the item to prevent future stretching.
Surface fibers seem matted
Gently brush the garment with a soft-bristled garment brush to realign the mohair fibers and restore the original brushed appearance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Emporio Armani sweater, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Professional dry cleaning is recommended to preserve the integrity of the mohair fibers and the brushed finish. If hand washing, use cold water and a mild detergent specifically designed for wool.
- Drying: Never wring the sweater. Lay it flat on a clean towel away from direct sunlight or heat sources to air dry, ensuring it maintains its original shape.
- Storage: Store folded rather than hung on a hanger to prevent the weight of the garment from causing the shoulders or neck to stretch out. Use cedar or lavender sachets to protect the natural fibers from moths.
- De-pilling: If small pills occur due to friction, gently use a fabric shaver or a dedicated wool comb, taking care to follow the direction of the knit.
