Unlike disposable alternatives, this durable tool is celebrated for its robust construction and ability to gently yet thoroughly refresh garments.

Know before you buy
It is specifically designed for delicate natural fibers like wool and cashmere. However, we always recommend testing it on an inconspicuous area of the garment first to ensure it does not snag or damage the weave.
Unlike electric shavers that use rotating blades, this manual comb uses a fine metal edge to gently lift and remove pilling. It offers more tactile control, which is often safer for high-end, fragile knits that might be damaged by motorized blades.
No, a light, gentle stroking motion is all that is required. Applying too much pressure can pull at the fabric fibers, so let the metal comb do the work by skimming the surface.
The knots and pilling collect directly on the mesh surface of the comb. Once you are finished, you can simply pick the collected lint off by hand and discard it.
While it is optimized for natural wools, it can be used on other fabrics. Just be mindful that synthetic fibers can sometimes be more prone to snagging, so proceed with extra caution and use a very light touch.
