How to care for your Royal Mer garment

Wool

Check the label on your wool sailor garment to choose the right washing method. For your information, all our sweaters are now machine-washable provided you have a suitable program. 💡 There's no need to wash your Royal mer sweater every time you wear it, just let it air out so you can wear it again, as wool wicks away sweat and repels odor molecules from sweat.

1 Machine wash

• Turn your Royal sea sweater inside out.

• Set your washing machine to a wool program (30° max).

• Wash your sea sweater with a special wool detergent.

2 Hand wash

Place your sailor sweater in a basin of cold water with a mild detergent. twist!

• Rinse it in clean water.

• Dry it by wrapping it and squeezing it in a towel -sponge. do not rub stains, especially stitch against stitch, as this promotes pilling; do not let it soak, as the wool will become soaked with water and your sweater may become deformed; do not twist it, otherwise it will break the fiber and permanently damage your sweater;

3 Drying

After removing excess water, lay the sweater out on a clean, flat surface to dry.
