FAQs

What is 'Italian boiled wool'?

Boiled wool is a dense, felted fabric made by repeatedly washing and agitating wool yarn or fabric in hot water. This process causes the fibers to shrink and interlock, creating a fabric that is warm, wind-resistant, and water-repellent, with a unique texture.

Is this sweater suitable for very cold weather?

Yes, the boiled wool provides excellent insulation and warmth, making it suitable for cold weather, especially when layered.

How do I know if I ordered the correct size?

Refer to the size chart provided by Norse Projects, paying attention to the measurements for chest, length, and sleeve. The relaxed fit means there is some tolerance, but check specific garment measurements if available.

Can I machine wash this sweater?

No, machine washing is strongly discouraged as it can lead to irreversible shrinkage and damage to the boiled wool fabric. Hand washing is the recommended method.

Will the blue color fade?

Using a wool-specific detergent and washing in cool water will help preserve the color. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading over time.

What makes the fit 'relaxed'?

A relaxed fit means the garment is cut with more room in the body and sleeves compared to a slim or regular fit, allowing for greater comfort and ease of movement, as well as facilitating layering.

Troubleshooting

Sweater feels itchy

This can sometimes occur with wool. Wearing a thin base layer underneath can prevent direct skin contact. Over time and with proper care, the wool may soften.

Sweater has lost its shape

Ensure the sweater was dried flat after washing. If stretching has occurred, try re-shaping it while damp and laying it flat to dry again. Avoid hanging.

Noticeable pilling on the surface

Gently remove pills using a fabric shaver or wool comb. This is a natural occurrence with wool fibers and does not affect the garment's integrity.

Mildew or odor

Air the sweater out in a well-ventilated area. For persistent odors, a hand wash with a wool detergent may be necessary, followed by proper drying.
