FAQs

What is the primary benefit of the Lifa fibers?

Lifa fibers are engineered to transport moisture away from your skin to the outer layers of the fabric, helping you stay dry during physical activity.

How does the merino wool contribute to warmth?

Merino wool is a natural insulator that traps body heat, providing warmth even in very cold conditions. Its softness also adds to the comfort of the garment.

Can I wear this for everyday activities, not just sports?

Yes, the crewneck's comfort, warmth, and moisture-wicking properties make it an excellent choice for everyday wear during colder months, providing a comfortable base layer.

What is the weight of the fabric?

The fabric has a weight of 215 grams per square meter, offering a good balance between warmth and breathability.

Is this garment suitable for extreme cold?

Yes, it is designed for cold conditions and performs well as a base layer, but for extreme cold, layering with additional insulating garments is recommended.

How often should I wash this garment?

Wash as needed. Given its moisture-wicking properties, it may not require washing after every single use, especially if worn as a base layer. Always follow the care instructions when washing.

What sizes are available?

This specific variant is size S. The Lifa Merino Crewneck is available in a range of adult sizes, from S to XXXXL, and in various colors.

Troubleshooting

Garment feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you are using a gentle cycle and a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, which can impede the wicking properties. Lay flat to dry rather than tumble drying.

Not wicking moisture effectively.

Check for any residue from harsh detergents or fabric softeners. Re-wash following the specific care instructions with a small amount of mild detergent. Ensure no other layers are preventing moisture transfer.

Seams are causing irritation.

Although designed with flatlock seams, some individuals may be sensitive. Ensure the garment is correctly sized and not overly tight. Try wearing it for a shorter duration initially to acclimate.

Wool pilling is noticeable.

Some pilling is natural with merino wool products, especially with friction. This does not typically affect performance. You can gently remove pills with a fabric comb or shaver if desired.
