FAQs
What is the main benefit of the merino wool and silk blend?
The blend offers the best of both worlds: the natural warmth, breathability, and odor resistance of merino wool, combined with the exceptional softness, slight sheen, and luxurious feel of silk.
How often should I wash this tank top?
Thanks to merino wool's natural odor-resistant properties, you can wear it multiple times between washes. Airing the garment out between wears will help keep it fresh. Wash only when necessary, following the care instructions.
Can I wear this tank top in warm weather?
Yes, the natural breathability of merino wool and silk makes this tank top comfortable in milder temperatures as well. It's a great option for everyday wear year-round.
Is this top suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, the fine merino wool and silk blend is known for its softness and is generally well-tolerated by sensitive skin. The natural fibers are gentle and breathable.
Can I machine wash this tank top?
It is strongly recommended to hand wash this garment to preserve the delicate merino wool and silk fibers and prevent stretching or damage. If you must use a machine, use the wool/delicates cycle with cold water and a wool detergent, and place it in a mesh laundry bag.
What does 'organic merino wool' mean?
Organic merino wool comes from sheep raised on farms that adhere to strict organic farming standards, focusing on animal welfare and environmental sustainability without the use of harmful chemicals.
What is the difference between this tank top and a standard cotton tank top?
Unlike cotton, merino wool and silk blends naturally regulate temperature, wick moisture away from the skin, and resist odor. They are also significantly softer and lighter, providing superior comfort and performance as a base layer.
Troubleshooting
Garment loses shape after washing.
Ensure you are hand washing and laying the garment flat to dry. Avoid wringing or machine drying, as this can stretch the delicate merino wool and silk fibers.
Fabric feels rough or stiff.
This can happen if the wrong detergent is used. Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and avoid fabric softeners. Re-wash with a wool detergent if necessary.
Mild odor persists after wearing.
While merino wool is naturally odor-resistant, prolonged wear without washing can eventually lead to odor. Ensure adequate airing between wears. If odor is strong, a gentle hand wash with wool detergent should resolve it.
Lace trim appears stretched or damaged.
Be careful when putting on and taking off the garment, avoiding pulling directly on the lace. Handle gently during washing and drying, and avoid harsh detergents or high heat.
