ioMerino may be naturally stick-resistant, but you’re still going to want to wash it every now and then, so here are a few tips on how best to keep it in tip-top condition.
For best results, hand wash your ioMerino Beanies. Do not hot machine wash.
Pilling is a natural process that can occur when shorter fibres come to the surface of the fabric. To help avoid pilling, wash your new garment within three wears, turn garment inside when washing, avoid abrasive surfaces and rubbing and use a more gentle wash cycle.

While Merino is an amazing natural fibre, not all Merino fabrics are created equal. At ioMerino, we make our own fabrics, using only the best quality fibres, and to very specific specifications that make the most of the natural benefits of Merino. All of them are 'Merino rich’. No cheap blends passed off as Merino. No cheaper scratchy fibres or synthetic substitutes to save money. No unethical production. And each fabric is made for a specific purpose. So if you see something with a small amount of elastase or nylon added, you can be sure it absolutely needs to be there to enhance the natural stretch and durability.
It took every bit of our 140 years of experience in the wool industry to perfect our fabrics, but we think you’ll agree the end result was more than worth the effort.
