FAQs
Is this base layer itchy?
No, it is engineered to be super-soft and comfortable, minimizing the irritation often associated with wool.
Can I put this in the dryer?
It is recommended to lay the garment flat to dry to prevent shrinkage and damage to the Merino fibers.
Does it provide sun protection?
While the fabric provides a layer of physical coverage, it is primarily designed for thermal regulation and moisture management.
How should I store the garment during the summer?
Store in a cool, dry place inside a breathable bag to protect it from moths and physical snags.
Can this be worn as a standalone shirt?
The crew neck design is stylish enough for casual use, though it is primarily optimized for performance layering.
Troubleshooting
Fabric feels damp after heavy activity
Ensure the base layer is worn directly against the skin to allow the Lifa fibers to wick moisture effectively.
Garment losing shape
Avoid hanging the garment while wet; always lay it flat to dry to maintain the integrity of the fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your base layer, always consult the internal care label. Generally, this garment should be washed on a gentle cycle using a wool-specific detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can compromise the moisture-wicking properties of the Lifa fibers. For best results, lay the garment flat to dry away from direct heat sources. When packing, avoid storing near sharp objects that could cause snagging or pilling on the Merino wool surface.
