Setup, Compatibility & Care
Care Instructions
To ensure the longevity and maintain the quality of your Fred Perry Wool Crewneck Jumper, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing:
- Hand Wash Recommended: Gently hand wash in cold water using a wool-specific detergent. Avoid harsh scrubbing or twisting.
- Machine Wash (Delicate): If machine washing, use a wool or delicate cycle with cold water and a laundry bag to protect the garment.
- Avoid Hot Water: Hot water can cause wool to shrink and felt.
- Drying:
- Reshape and Lay Flat to Dry: Gently reshape the jumper to its original dimensions and lay it flat on a clean towel or drying rack.
- Avoid Hanging: Hanging a wet wool garment can cause it to stretch out of shape.
- Do Not Tumble Dry: High heat from tumble drying will cause irreversible shrinkage.
- Storage:
- Fold, Don't Hang: Store folded in a drawer or on a shelf to prevent stretching, especially at the shoulders.
- Moth Protection: Use cedar blocks or lavender sachets to protect wool garments from moths.
- Ironing:
- Low Heat with Steam: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting with steam, using a pressing cloth to protect the fabric.
