FAQs
Is merino wool suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, merino wool is known for its fine fibers, which are typically much softer and less irritating than traditional wool, making it suitable for sensitive skin.
How often should I wash this top?
Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant. You can wear it multiple times between washes, depending on activity level and personal preference. Wash when it no longer feels fresh.
Can I wear this top in warm weather?
Merino wool is breathable and can help regulate temperature in warmer conditions by wicking moisture away from the skin, making it comfortable for layering or as a light top on its own.
What does 'base layer' mean?
A base layer is the first layer of clothing worn next to the skin, designed to manage moisture, provide insulation, and enhance comfort.
How does merino wool's odor resistance work?
Merino wool fibers have a natural waxy coating (lanolin) and a complex surface structure that absorbs and neutralizes odor molecules, preventing them from becoming apparent.
Can I wear this strap top under a dress?
Absolutely. Its slim profile and soft material make it an excellent choice for wearing under dresses to add warmth or a smooth silhouette.
Troubleshooting
Top feels itchy
Ensure you are washing it according to the care instructions with a wool-specific detergent. High-quality merino wool is naturally soft, but proper care maintains its feel.
Top has lost its shape after washing
Avoid high spin cycles or tumble drying. Always lay the garment flat to dry, gently reshaping it while damp.
Odors are not dissipating after wear
While merino is naturally odor-resistant, extreme conditions or heavy perspiration may require more frequent washing. Ensure you are washing with appropriate wool detergent.
