FAQs
Is this shirt suitable for very hot weather?
Yes, the 100% virgin merino wool is highly breathable and naturally temperature-regulating, making it comfortable for warm conditions. The short sleeves also contribute to airflow.
How do I know if the regular fit is right for me?
The regular fit provides a standard silhouette that is neither too tight nor too loose. If you typically wear a standard size and prefer a comfortable, not body-hugging, fit, the regular fit should be suitable. Refer to sizing charts for precise measurements.
Can I machine wash this polo shirt?
Yes, you can machine wash it, but it is crucial to use a gentle cycle with cold water and a detergent specifically designed for wool. Always opt for a wool setting if your machine has one.
What makes merino wool better than other materials for a polo shirt?
Merino wool is superior due to its natural softness, breathability, temperature regulation (keeping you cool when it's hot and warm when it's cold), moisture-wicking properties, and odor resistance. It also offers a more refined drape than cotton.
How often should I wash my merino wool polo?
Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and can be worn multiple times between washes, depending on activity levels. Airing out the garment after wear can help refresh it. Wash only when necessary to preserve the fibers.
What does 'responsibly sourced virgin wool' mean?
It means the wool comes from living sheep that have not been subjected to harmful practices and that the farming methods adhere to recognized animal welfare standards. It indicates a commitment to ethical sourcing.
Is the dark brown color easy to match with other clothes?
Yes, dark brown is a versatile neutral color that pairs well with a wide range of other colors, including blues, grays, creams, and even some bolder tones. It's a sophisticated alternative to black or navy.
Troubleshooting
Shirt feels itchy or rough
Ensure you are using a high-quality wool detergent and that the garment has been washed according to care instructions. New wool can sometimes feel slightly different until softened by washing.
Shirt has lost its shape
Check that the shirt has been laid flat to dry and not hung. Ensure you are not over-drying or tumble drying, which can damage wool fibers. Re-shape gently while damp.
Pilling on the fabric
Some pilling is natural with merino wool over time. You can gently remove pills with a fabric shaver or by carefully picking them off. Reduce friction during washing and wear to minimize pilling.
Color fading
Wash inside out in cold water with a mild detergent. Avoid direct sunlight when drying. Ensure you are not using harsh bleach or stain removers.

- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting, preferably while the garment is slightly damp or using a pressing cloth.
