FAQs
What is Extrafine Merino Wool?
Extrafine Merino Wool refers to wool fibers that are exceptionally thin, typically less than 19.5 microns in diameter. This fineness results in a softer, less itchy feel compared to standard wool, along with excellent breathability and temperature regulation.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Refer to the product's specific size chart if available, or compare measurements to a similar garment you own that fits well. The 'Regular Fit' description suggests it should not be overly tight or loose.
Can this sweater be worn in warm weather?
Merino wool is breathable and temperature-regulating, making it suitable for milder warm weather. However, its insulating properties mean it is best suited for cooler conditions or as a layering piece.
What does '14 Gauge Knit' mean?
Gauge refers to the density of the knit. A 14 gauge indicates a fine knit, meaning there are 14 needles per inch on the knitting machine. This results in a smooth, lightweight fabric suitable for sophisticated garments.
Is the rubberized logo badge durable?
The rubberized logo badge is designed for durability and should withstand normal wear and proper hand-washing. Avoid harsh scrubbing directly on the badge.
What does the 'Metropolis Series' indicate?
The Metropolis Series by C.P. Company often signifies urban-inspired, functional, and contemporary designs with a focus on technical materials and distinctive branding.
Troubleshooting
Wool pilling after wear
Some pilling is normal with fine wool. Gently remove pills with a fabric comb or sweater shaver. Avoid excessive friction.
Sweater loses shape after washing
Ensure you are laying the sweater flat to dry and have gently reshaped it while damp. Avoid hanging the wet garment.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. You can try gently lubricating the zipper track with a graphite pencil lead or a small amount of silicone-based lubricant.
