FAQs
What makes merino wool good for base layers?
Merino wool is excellent for base layers because it is naturally breathable, temperature-regulating, soft, and odor-resistant. It keeps you warm in cold weather and cool in warm weather by wicking moisture away from the skin.
Why is there no superwash treatment?
The absence of superwash treatment means the wool is processed without chlorine or plastics. This preserves the natural properties of the merino wool, ensuring its breathability, skin-friendliness, and softness are maintained.
Can I wear this as a standalone top?
Yes, the DILLING strap top is designed to be comfortable and stylish enough to be worn on its own, especially in milder weather or as part of a layered outfit.
How often should I wash this top?
Due to merino wool's natural odor-resistant properties, you can wear it multiple times between washes. Wash only when necessary to preserve the fibers.
What is the difference between this and synthetic base layers?
Merino wool is a natural fiber that offers superior breathability, temperature regulation, and softness compared to most synthetic materials. It also doesn't hold odors as readily.
Is this suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, the fine merino wool fibers are generally soft and non-irritating, making it suitable for sensitive skin. The natural processing further enhances its skin-friendly properties.
Troubleshooting
Garment feels itchy
Ensure the garment is 100% merino wool. Some individuals may have sensitivities. Washing according to instructions can soften fibers over time.
Shrinking after washing
Verify that the garment was washed on a wool cycle at 30°C and dried by laying flat, not tumble dried. Avoid high heat.
Odor persists after washing
Ensure you used a wool-specific detergent and the correct wool wash cycle. Airing out the garment can also help.
