How do you wash your garments?
• Merino Wool: Wool is naturally odor-resistant and antibacterial, so frequent washing is often unnecessary. In many cases, simply hanging your garment outdoors or lightly steaming it will refresh it. When a wash is necessary, machine wash with like colors on a delicate or wool cycle using cold water and a natural wool soap. Never put wool in the dryer, instead lay it flat to dry on a towel or drying rack. For long-term storage, keep it clean in a cool, dark place with a lavender or cedarwood sachet to prevent insect damage.
• Organic Cotton: While less delicate than wool, organic cotton should still be treated with care to maximize its life. We recommend washing with like colors on a cold, delicate cycle using a natural soap, and hang drying.
Why do you only use natural fibers?
Most modern clothing is made from synthetic materials such as polyester, nylon, spandex, and acrylic. These fibers are plastics derived from petroleum that shed microplastics throughout their lifespan and are treated with toxic, hormone-disrupting chemicals.
At Don Kaka, we choose natural fibers because we believe clothing should work in harmony with both the human body and the natural world. We seek out materials that are breathable, biodegradable, and minimally processed, allowing their inherent qualities to remain intact.
Our commitment extends beyond sustainability. We believe the future of clothing should prioritize human health, environmental stewardship, and a deeper connection to the materials we wear every day.
