Can I wear this tank top without a bra?
The tank top is designed for comfort and can be worn on its own. Support level may vary based on individual preference and body type.
How does Merino wool compare to regular wool?
Merino wool fibers are finer and softer than those of regular wool, making them less itchy and more comfortable against the skin. It also offers superior moisture-wicking and temperature regulation.
What does 'Nordic Ecolabel certified' mean?

How often should I wash my Merino wool tank top?
Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant. You can wear it multiple times between washes, especially if aired out properly. Wash only when necessary to preserve the fibers.
What is the '1/1 quality' fabric?
The '1/1 quality' refers to the knitting technique used, resulting in a smooth, soft, and flexible fabric that is comfortable and durable.
Troubleshooting
Garment feels itchy or uncomfortable
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and washing at the correct temperature. Merino wool is naturally soft, but improper washing can affect its feel. Ensure the garment is rinsed thoroughly.
Tank top has lost its shape
Merino wool can be stretched if handled roughly or hung while wet. Reshape the garment while damp and lay flat to dry. Avoid excessive wringing.
Fabric appears to be pilling significantly
Gentle pilling is normal for natural wool fibers. Use a fabric shaver to carefully remove pills. Avoid harsh friction during wear and washing.
Color fading
Wash with like colors in cold water and use a detergent suitable for wool. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight during drying.

- Washing: Machine wash on a delicate cycle at a maximum of 30°C (86°F). Use a wool-specific detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can impair the wool's natural properties.

- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low setting (wool setting) while the garment is still slightly damp.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Consider folding rather than hanging to prevent stretching.
- Pilling: Natural wool can sometimes pill. This is normal and can be managed by gently removing pills with a fabric shaver.
