FAQs
What is merino wool and why is it good for base layers?
Merino wool is a fine, soft fiber from merino sheep. It's excellent for base layers because it's naturally thermoregulating, breathable, moisture-wicking, and odor-resistant, keeping you comfortable in various temperatures.
Is this tank top suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, the organic merino wool used is very fine and soft, with a smooth surface, making it gentle and less likely to cause irritation compared to coarser wools.
How does the 'close, but comfortable fit' work?
The knitting technique allows the fabric to stretch and move with the body without being tight or constricting, ensuring comfort and freedom of movement while maintaining its position as a base layer.
Can I wash this in a regular washing machine?
Yes, but always on a delicate or wool cycle, at a maximum of 30°C, and using a specialized wool detergent. Avoid high spin speeds and always air dry.
What age group is this tank top intended for?
This specific size (5-6) is for children aged 5-6 years. The product line is generally designed for kids across a range of younger ages.
Does merino wool keep you warm even when wet?
Merino wool retains some insulating properties even when damp, thanks to the natural crimp of the fibers that trap air. While it's best to stay dry, it performs better than many synthetic materials if it does get wet.
What does 'thermoregulating' mean for my child?
Thermoregulating means the fabric helps maintain a stable body temperature. It helps keep your child warm by trapping body heat in cooler conditions and allows excess heat to escape in warmer conditions.
Troubleshooting
Garment feels itchy after washing
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have rinsed thoroughly. Avoid fabric softeners. Try re-washing with a gentle wool wash.
Tank top lost its shape
Merino wool can lose elasticity if not cared for properly. Ensure you are laying the garment flat to dry and not stretching it when wet. Avoid high heat in washing or drying.
Pilling on the surface
Some pilling is natural with merino wool, especially in the initial stages. Gentle washing and avoiding excessive friction can minimize this. You can use a fabric shaver carefully if needed.
