FAQs

Is this shirt suitable for hot weather?

While wool is breathable, this cable knit style may be warmer than lighter cotton knits. It is best suited for cooler or transitional weather, or as a layering piece.

What is the best way to wash this wool shirt?

Hand wash or use a wool cycle on your washing machine with cold water and a wool-specific detergent. Always lay flat to air dry.

Can I machine dry this shirt?

No, machine drying is not recommended as it can cause significant shrinkage and damage the wool fibers. Always air dry by laying flat.

How do I care for the cable knit texture?

Avoid harsh washing and drying methods. Laying flat to dry helps maintain the shape and texture. Gentle handling during washing is key.

What kind of material is this shirt made from?

The shirt is crafted from 100% wool, offering natural breathability and a soft feel.

What occasions is this shirt best for?

It's ideal for smart-casual occasions, such as weekend outings, casual dinners, or relaxed office environments.

Troubleshooting

Shirt appears stretched or misshapen after washing.

Ensure you are following the specific hand-wash or delicate wool cycle instructions with cold water and laying flat to dry. Avoid machine drying or harsh spin cycles.

Wool feels itchy.

Some fine wools can cause mild irritation initially. Ensure the garment is properly washed according to care instructions, which can soften the fibers. Wearing a thin base layer underneath can also help.

Pilling or fuzz balls on the surface.

This is a natural characteristic of wool fibers. Gently remove pills with a fabric comb or electric fabric shaver. Avoid excessive rubbing during washing and wear.
