Performance Lined Sweater Care

    My Performance Lined Sweater is fantastic...very comfortable and warm.  The sleeves are just a tad long....I was thinking they may shrink just a bit more if I tumble dried it on low rather than letting it dry flat/ air dry.  Has anyone done this? Does it work and does it have a negative effect on the merino wool's appearance and performance?

    Haven't done it, and won't. Merrino wool doesn't react well to heat, so you do that at your own risk.

    not sure what the tag says, but i wouldn't do it if FJ says not to (which i think it says).

    You can wash them.  Tag says machine wash warm, dry flat, no bleach or dry clean and iron on medium heat which is what I did.
