Material

36% alpaca/29% cotton/18% wool/17% polyester. 50% of the cotton is certified recycled and the rest is certified organic. The wool is mulesing-free. The polyester is recycled and certified. The recycled cotton is sourced from textile industry by-products that have been respun into new fibres. We are reducing our impact on the environment by using recycled materials. Even the finest of wool fabrics may show some pilling after repeated wear. Carefully remove any pilling by hand. We recommend airing the garment outdoors or steaming with an iron. If absolutely necessary, hand wash at 30° or machine wash on the wool cycle. Use a detergent specifically for wool. Reshape the garment while damp and dry flat. Store horizontally. 4-5% shrinkage. Made in Dongguan, China.
