FAQs

Is this gaiter machine washable?

Yes, it is machine washable on a gentle cycle with a wool-safe detergent.

Can I wear this in the summer?

Yes, merino wool is naturally temperature-regulating and highly breathable, making it suitable for sun protection even in warmer conditions.

Does it have a chemical treatment for odor control?

No, the odor resistance is a natural property of the merino wool fibers.

Will this fit all adults?

The Flexi Chute is designed with high-stretch merino knit to fit most adult head sizes comfortably.

What should I avoid while wearing it?

Avoid contact with abrasive surfaces like hook-and-loop fasteners (Velcro) or sharp metal edges to prevent pilling or snagging.

Troubleshooting

The fabric feels slightly itchy.

Wash the item with a fabric softener specifically designed for wool to help relax the fibers.

Small holes appearing in the fabric.

Avoid contact with sharp jewelry, zippers, or rough equipment. If holes appear, they can be carefully mended with a fine-gauge needle and matching thread.

Loss of shape.

Avoid stretching the gaiter when wet. Always reshape it while damp before laying it flat to dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

The Flexi Chute requires no setup—it is ready to wear immediately. To ensure the longevity of the merino wool, follow these care steps:

  2. Drying: Air dry the garment by laying it flat in the shade. Avoid direct sunlight and high-heat tumble dryers, as these can shrink or damage the fibers.
  3. Storage: Keep in a clean, dry place. If storing for long periods, ensure the gaiter is clean to prevent damage from pests.
