WASHING INSTRUCTIONS

How to Clean your Merino Shoes in the Washing Machine:
Start by wiping down the shoes with a towel to get rid of any loose dirt.
Next, remove the insoles and laces from your shoes - you should wash these by hand in the sink for the best results.
On the delicate/wool cycle (cold water) put your shoes in the washing machine. We suggest using a linen bag to protect the shoes.
Air dry ONLY - do NOT tumble dry as they may shrink.
Finally, reinsert the insoles and laces and continue to enjoy your Merino Shoes!

How to Clean your Merino Shoes by Hand:
Hand wash in warm water using a soft cloth to clean.
Clean any dirty spots with a mild soap solution.
Air dry ONLY - do NOT tumble dry as they may shrink.

Additional Notes:
We have found that Mr Clean® Magic Erasers are great to remove dirt & scuffs from the soles of the shoes.
Do not use bleach or detergent with brightening agents.
Do not soak in water for extended periods of time.
