FAQs
Is this polo suitable for very cold weather?
Yes, merino wool is an excellent insulator. This polo can be worn as a base layer in very cold weather, providing warmth without bulk.
Can my child wear this polo every day?
Absolutely. The activewear quality is designed for durability and comfort during regular activities. Just follow the care instructions to keep it in good condition.
How does merino wool feel compared to regular wool?
Merino wool fibers are much finer than traditional wool, making them softer, less scratchy, and more comfortable against the skin.
What makes the 'activewear quality' different?
The activewear quality means the merino wool is knitted in a denser, smoother weave, providing increased durability and a streamlined fit ideal for movement.
Can I machine dry this polo?
No, tumble drying is not recommended as it can damage the wool fibers and cause shrinkage. Always lay flat to dry.
Is the green color vibrant or muted?
The green is a natural color derived from the organic merino wool, offering a subtle, earthy tone suitable for children's wear.
Troubleshooting
Garment feels stiff after washing.
Ensure you used a wool-specific detergent and the correct wool wash cycle. Avoid fabric softeners, which can degrade wool fibers. Lay flat to dry away from heat.
Pilling occurs on the surface.
Some pilling is natural with wool, especially in activewear quality. To minimize, wash inside out and avoid harsh friction. Use a fabric comb gently if needed.
Color fades over time.
Wash inside out with similar colors. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying.
Garment loses shape.
Ensure you are laying the garment flat to dry and not stretching it while wet. Reshape gently while damp.
