How to wash a Sherpa Jacket? 

A Sherpa jacket is a garment that needs special care for the materials and fibers that are made. If you have one or more today we will tell you how you can preserve your jacket to the moment of washing it. 

• Sherpa jackets are not to be washed often.

• Don't leave it for a long time inside the washing machine because it may lose its original shape. 

• It is not advisable to leave the Sherpa jackets dying in the sun, they lose their color. 

• Pour 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of mild detergent into the washing machine. Do not use a detergent that contains fabric softeners, or bleach, these ingredients can ruin the softness of the Sherpa jacket.

If you are going to wash your Sherpa jacket, you need to roll it up in a large towel and exert pressure so that it does not lose its shape, and preferably you have to wash it by hand at a temperature of 30°C.
