Care Instructions
Mainers mitts can be machine washed. For best results, we suggest placing them in a mesh garment washing bag to prevent inversion of the inner and outer components.
Use a gentle washing cycle and warm water (not hot water). Do not use harsh detergents or bleach, instead we recommend using a detergent specifically designed for technical fabrics, such as SPORT-WASH. Air dry by standing the gloves or mitts on their gauntlets or hanging them by the front tips.
