FAQs
Is this top suitable for very cold weather?
While Merino wool provides excellent insulation, this strap top is lightweight. It is most effective as a base layer for added warmth in colder conditions, rather than a primary outer garment.
How often should I wash this top?
Thanks to Merino wool's natural odour-resistant properties, you can often wear this top multiple times between washes, depending on usage. Airing it out can help refresh the fabric.
Can I wear this top to exercise?
Yes, the breathable and moisture-wicking properties of Merino wool make it suitable for light exercise. For intense workouts, specialized activewear might be more appropriate.
What is the benefit of Merino wool compared to regular wool?
Merino wool fibres are much finer and softer than those of regular wool, making it less itchy and more comfortable against the skin. It also offers superior breathability and temperature regulation.
How do I know if I've chosen the right size?
Refer to the brand's sizing chart for specific measurements. Generally, tops should fit snugly as a base layer but not be restrictive. The size UK 18 is designed for a specific range of body measurements.
Will the lace trim irritate my skin?
The lace trim is designed to be fine and elegant. However, individual sensitivity can vary. If you have very sensitive skin, consider wearing a thin layer underneath or trying the top on to assess comfort.
Troubleshooting
Top feels itchy
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have followed the care instructions. High-quality Merino wool is typically very soft; itchiness might indicate detergent residue or improper washing.
Lace trim snagged or damaged
Hand-wash the garment gently, paying close attention to the lace. For minor snags, try to carefully smooth them out. Avoid machine drying or high heat, which can exacerbate damage.
Top lost its shape after washing
Merino wool can be sensitive to heat and agitation. Always wash on a cold wool cycle and lay flat to dry. Reshape the garment gently while damp.
