Caring for Your Ström Sheepskin

Natural sheepskin is made to be used. With a little care, it will stay soft, comfortable and looking its best for longer.

All Ström sheepskin pieces are removable, making it easy to wash the sheepskin separately without repeatedly washing the entire product.

Gentle care preserves the natural softness of the wool and leather.
01

Before Washing

  • Remove the sheepskin liner or trim from your Ström product.
  • Cover any exposed Velcro on the sheepskin using the protective backing strips provided. This helps prevent the wool fibres from becoming caught in the Velcro during washing.
  • Place the sheepskin inside your complimentary Ström wash bag and close securely.
02

Washing

  • Machine wash on a gentle or wool cycle at 30°C or below.
  • Use a sheepskin or wool-safe detergent.
  • Do not use regular laundry detergent, bleach or fabric softener.
  • Wash separately or with similar colours.
  • Use a gentle spin cycle.
  • Do not dry clean.
03

Drying

Reshape the sheepskin while damp and allow it to air dry naturally, away from direct sunlight and heat.

Do not tumble dry, place on a radiator or use direct heat to speed up drying.

As the sheepskin dries, gently stretch and reshape the leather backing occasionally to help maintain its softness and shape. Once dry, gently fluff or brush the wool fibres if needed.

04

Everyday Care

Sheepskin doesn’t need to be washed after every use. Allow it to air dry.

For light dirt, allow mud or debris to dry before gently brushing it away. Washing only when needed will help preserve the natural sheepskin and extend its life.

05

Your Ström Wash Bag

A complimentary Ström wash bag is included with your order. Use it whenever washing removable sheepskin pieces to help protect the wool and your washing machine.

Keep your Velcro backing strips. They’re designed to be reused each time you wash your sheepskin, keeping the hook side of the Velcro covered so it can’t catch on the wool.
