Does the T-shirt have any special knit features?

What does 'organic merino wool' mean?

Can this T-shirt be layered with other clothing?

Absolutely. Its smooth texture and breathability make it a perfect base layer, designed to be worn comfortably under other garments like sweaters, fleeces, or jackets.

Troubleshooting

T-shirt feels itchy

Ensure the garment is 100% merino wool and has been washed according to care instructions. Sometimes, a quick rinse can help soften the fibers further. Check that no other layers are causing friction.

T-shirt has shrunk

This can occur if washed or dried at high temperatures. Gently stretch the garment back to its original shape while damp and lay flat to dry. Future washes should strictly adhere to the 30°C gentle cycle and air-drying instructions.

Pilling occurs

Some minor pilling is natural with merino wool, especially with frequent wear and washing. Use a fabric comb or shaver to gently remove any pills. Proper washing on a gentle cycle helps minimize this.

Odor persists after washing

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and that the washing machine is clean. A longer soak in cool water with wool detergent might be necessary for stubborn odors. Airing the garment out thoroughly can also help.
