Wool is one of the oldest fibre types used here at Stanfield’s and one that has certainly proven it can stand the test of time.
To get the longest and most vibrant life out of your wool garments there are some additional steps to add to your normal laundry routine.
In general, we recommend washing in cold water (30°C), laying flat to dry and to reshape the layer(s). This will allow the fibres to recover to their original shape and bring out the best of the natural resilience and spring of wool. Do not bleach your wool.
Once your wool is completely dry, it can be aired out inside or outside for a fresh new start. We recommend gently folding and storing your knitted wool garments in drawers as a best practice.
Your wool can be machine dried but does run the risk of shrinking if done. We always recommend laying flat to dry whenever possible. If you choose to iron your wool, always do it at a low temperature (never exceeding 110°C). For professional dry-cleaning, dry-clean, normal cycle, any cycle other than trichloroethylene.
But what about moths? If you are storing your wool long-term and not using regularly or storing in your daily-use closet, there are precautionary steps you can take to best store your garments. Food stains and body oils can attract moths. Before long-term storage, ensure your garment is clean and always store in airtight bags or containers. You may also choose to apply a moth repellent to your garments but remember not to place them directly on the garment.

CanadaAwesome
Dealing with Stanfields while buying two Henley’s was smooth and easy. Clothes arrived in normal time. Was easy peasy all the way
Canada Canada CanadaMen's Heavy Weight Wool Henley
While living in British Columbia I found the loggers use these exclusively. Not only are they warm but since in B.C. You dress in layers they also provided a measure of dryness during the rainy season. This purchase was sent as a donation to the soldiers in the Ukraine.
CanadaThe best!
I purchased the Heritage wool heavy weight Henley and heavy weight wool bottoms. By far the warmest 1st layer you can get. Don't be ****** into flashy advertising of "new" or " revolutionary" materials to keep you warm during winter. Nothing beats wool. I actually like the feeling of wool so I find these two items very comfortable. Plus it is a Canadian product produced by a Canadian company. Thank you, Stanfields!
