FAQs

Is merino wool suitable for all seasons?

Yes, merino wool is highly versatile. Its natural properties help regulate temperature, keeping you warm in cooler weather and providing breathability in warmer conditions, making it suitable year-round.

How often should I wash my merino wool tank top?

Merino wool is naturally odour-resistant, so it doesn't require washing after every wear. You can often wear it multiple times before washing. Wash when you notice any odour or visible soiling. Refer to the care instructions for detailed washing guidance.

Can I wear this tank top for intense exercise?

This tank top is excellent for light to moderate activities due to its moisture-wicking and breathable properties. For very intense or high-impact activities, it serves best as a base layer, and you might consider garments designed specifically for extreme exertion.

What does 'close-fitting silhouette' mean?

A close-fitting silhouette means the garment is designed to follow the natural lines of the body, fitting snugly without being uncomfortably tight. This makes it ideal for layering as it won't add bulk under other clothing.

How does merino wool compare to regular wool?

Merino wool fibres are much finer than traditional wool, making them significantly softer, less itchy, and more breathable. It also offers superior moisture-wicking and temperature-regulating abilities.

What is the benefit of lace trim on a base layer?

The delicate lace trim adds a subtle aesthetic appeal, providing a touch of femininity and elegance. It allows the base layer to be comfortable for everyday wear and also visually pleasing if a small part is visible when layered.

Can I put merino wool in a tumble dryer?

No, tumble drying is not recommended for merino wool as the heat and agitation can cause shrinkage and damage the fibres. Always air dry your merino wool garments by laying them flat.

Troubleshooting

Merino wool feels itchy

Ensure you are using fine merino wool, which is typically very soft. Wash the garment according to care instructions, as this can soften the fibres. If itchiness persists, it may be due to individual sensitivity.

Garment stretched out of shape after washing

Merino wool can be prone to stretching if handled roughly when wet. Always lay flat to dry, avoiding hanging. Reshape the garment gently while damp.

Odour persists after washing

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and washing at the recommended temperature. For persistent odours, try soaking in cool water with a wool wash before re-washing.

Shrinking after washing/drying

Ensure you are strictly following the care instructions, especially regarding water temperature and avoiding tumble drying. Merino wool can shrink if exposed to high heat or agitation.
