How do I wash Disana clothes?

Washing wool is simple—treat it like your own hair. Wool dislikes extreme temperatures, harsh detergents, and vigorous rubbing. By following these simple care instructions, your wool clothing will remain soft, breathable, and long-lasting.

Hand Washing:

Fill a sink or basin with lukewarm water (around 25°C) and add a mild wool detergent. Avoid regular detergents, as they contain enzymes that can break down wool fibers.
Gently submerge the garment and lightly press it in the water for 1–2 minutes. Do not rub, wring, or stretch the fabric.
Rinse with clean water at the same temperature to prevent shock and shrinkage.
Carefully press out excess water without twisting. Lay the garment on a towel, roll it up to absorb moisture, then reshape and dry flat away from direct heat and sunlight.

Machine Washing:

If you choose to use a washing machine, do so with caution. Modern machines often have a wool cycle, but settings vary. Follow these steps:

Select the Wool Wash or Hand Wash program with a maximum temperature of 30°C.
Use a low spin setting (max 400 rpm) or choose a wool program that minimizes agitation.
Always use a wool detergent to maintain fiber integrity.

Warning: Some machines may have temperature fluctuations or automatic high-speed spins, which can cause shrinkage and felting. If unsure, hand washing is the safest option.

Removing Stains:

For tough stains, ox-gall soap is an effective natural stain remover. However, it can fade colors, so always test on a hidden area first. Apply directly to the stain, let it sit briefly, then wash as usual.

How Often Should Wool Be Washed?

Wool is naturally self-cleaning. Its fibers repel dirt and odors, so frequent washing is unnecessary. Simply air out wool garments in fresh air to refresh them. Washing too often can strip wool of its natural lanolin, reducing its softness and durability.

Do I Need to Wash New Wool Garments Before Wearing?

No, Disana wool products are pre-cleaned during production and free from harmful chemicals, making them safe and comfortable to wear right away.

What If My Wool Garment Shrinks?

If a wool garment is accidentally washed at a high temperature, it may shrink and felt permanently. Unfortunately, this process cannot be reversed. However, if minor shrinkage occurs, try soaking the item in lukewarm water (25°C) and gently reshaping it before drying flat.
