FAQs

Is merino wool suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, 100% organic merino wool is known for its exceptional softness and hypoallergenic properties, making it ideal for sensitive skin. It is designed to be worn directly next to the skin.

How often should I wash these briefs?

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and breathable, meaning it doesn't need to be washed after every single wear. Washing once every few wears is often sufficient, depending on activity levels. Always follow the care instructions when washing.

Can these briefs be worn in both hot and cold weather?

Yes, merino wool is a temperature-regulating fiber. It helps keep you warm in cooler temperatures and wicks moisture away to help you stay cool in warmer weather.

What does 'irregular rib surface' mean?

This refers to the knitting technique used, which creates a textured, ribbed pattern that is not perfectly uniform. This technique enhances the fabric's flexibility and stretch.

Are these briefs machine washable?

Yes, they are machine washable on a gentle wool cycle at a maximum of 30°C. It is crucial to use a wool-specific detergent and avoid tumble drying.

What is the best way to dry merino wool underwear?

The best method is to lay the garment flat to dry, away from direct heat or sunlight. Avoid tumble drying, as high heat can damage the wool fibers and cause shrinkage.

Can I use regular detergent?

It is highly recommended to use a mild detergent specifically designed for wool. Regular detergents can strip the natural lanolin from the wool fibers, reducing their softness and insulating properties.

Troubleshooting

Garment feels itchy after washing.

Ensure you are using a mild wool-specific detergent and that all detergent has been thoroughly rinsed out. Avoid fabric softeners. Check that the garment has been washed on a gentle cycle.

Elastic waistband feels too tight or too loose.

Merino wool has natural stretch. Ensure the garment was washed correctly and not overstretched. If consistently too tight/loose, consider trying a different size in the future.

Garment has lost its shape.

Avoid tumble drying and excessive wringing. Gently reshape the garment while damp and lay it flat to dry. Merino wool can often recover its shape over time with proper care.

Slight pilling observed.

Pilling can occur with natural fibers. This is usually superficial. You can gently remove pills with a fabric shaver or by carefully trimming them. Ensure clothing worn over the briefs is not overly abrasive.
