Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Mieke Balaclava, always consult the specific care label attached to the product. Given the delicate nature of mohair and merino wool, avoid machine washing on standard cycles, which can cause felting or shrinking. Instead, opt for hand washing in cool water with a gentle wool-safe detergent. After washing, gently press out excess water—never wring the material—and lay the balaclava flat on a clean towel to air dry, away from direct heat sources or sunlight. When not in use, store in a cool, dry place and consider using a moth-repellent sachet to protect the natural fibers.
