FAQs

Is this top suitable for very cold weather?

Yes, the merino wool and silk blend provides excellent thermoregulation, making it ideal for cold weather as a base layer. For extreme cold, consider layering with additional insulating garments.

How often should I wash this top?

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant, so you may not need to wash it after every wear. Wash when necessary, following the care instructions, typically when it no longer feels fresh or shows visible dirt.

Can I wear this top for sports or intense exercise?

While breathable and moisture-wicking, this top is primarily designed for everyday wear and moderate activities. For very high-intensity exercise, specialized sportswear might offer superior sweat management.

Why does the garment stretch when worn?

The natural elasticity of merino wool fibers allows the garment to stretch for comfort and freedom of movement. This stretching is temporary, and the fibers will naturally contract back to their original shape after washing.

What is the benefit of the silk blend?

The silk blend enhances the softness and smoothness of the fabric, contributing to a lightweight and airy feel. It adds a touch of luxury and further improves the comfort against the skin.

How do I best care for the merino wool and silk blend?

Always use a gentle wool wash cycle at a low temperature (max 30°C), preferably with a wool-specific detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, and tumble drying. Lay flat to dry.

Is the pink color likely to fade?

Proper care following the guidelines, especially avoiding harsh detergents and excessive heat, will help maintain the color vibrancy over time.

Troubleshooting

Garment feels stretched out after wearing.

This is a natural characteristic of the merino wool and silk blend. Lay the garment flat to dry after washing. The wool fibers will naturally contract and help restore the garment's shape.

Skin irritation after wearing.

Although the blend is designed to be soft and hypoallergenic, ensure the care instructions are followed. Wash the garment before first wear. If irritation persists, discontinue use.

Reduced warmth or breathability.

Ensure the garment is clean and free from residues that could impede fiber function. Check that you are following the recommended washing and drying procedures. Over-washing or using harsh detergents can affect performance.
