Product Information
Full details
This DILLING tank top is designed for adult women seeking a comfortable, breathable base layer for everyday wear and athletic activities. Its key benefit is the natural merino wool construction, which keeps you dry and odor-free while regulating body temperature. A potential consideration is its snug fit, which, while allowing free movement, might feel restrictive for those preferring a looser cut. It features 100% organic merino wool, a flexible knit for full range of motion, and temperature-regulating properties.

FAQs
Is this tank top suitable for very cold weather?
Yes, the merino wool provides excellent insulation and warmth, making it suitable as a base layer in cold conditions. For extreme cold, layering with additional insulating pieces is recommended.
How does merino wool prevent odor?
Merino wool fibers have a natural waxy coating (lanolin) and a structure that inhibits the growth of odor-causing bacteria. It also wicks moisture away effectively, further reducing odor.
Can I wear this tank top directly against my skin?
Absolutely. This tank top is designed to be a soft and comfortable base layer, intended for direct skin contact.
What makes the fit flexible?
The tank top uses a specific knitting technique that creates a fabric with high elasticity, allowing it to stretch and conform to your body's movements without losing its shape.
How often should I wash this tank top?
Due to its natural odor-resistant properties, you can often wear the tank top multiple times between washes, especially if used as a base layer. Wash when you notice any odor or visible soiling, following the care instructions.
Is the merino wool ethically sourced?
DILLING is committed to using 100% organic materials. The merino wool is sourced from farms that adhere to strict ethical and environmental standards, without the use of harmful chemicals.
Troubleshooting
Tank top feels itchy or rough.
Ensure the garment is washed according to care instructions. Merino wool is naturally soft, but improper washing can affect texture. Allow a few wears for the fibers to soften further.
Loss of shape after washing.
Avoid high-temperature washing and tumble drying. Always lay flat or hang to air dry. Gentle washing and proper drying methods will maintain the garment's shape.
Garment does not seem to regulate temperature effectively.
Ensure the tank top is worn as a base layer directly against the skin for optimal moisture-wicking and temperature regulation. Wearing multiple non-wicking layers over it can impede its natural performance.
