FAQs

What makes this strap top different from other base layers?

This top is unique due to its blend of 70% organic merino wool and 30% silk, offering superior softness, breathability, and natural odor resistance compared to synthetic materials or standard cotton.

Can I wear this top in warm weather?

Yes, the merino wool and silk blend is breathable and moisture-wicking, making it comfortable even in warmer conditions by helping to regulate body temperature.

How often should I wash this top?

Thanks to the odor-resistant properties of merino wool, you can wear this top multiple times between washes. Wash only when necessary, following the care instructions.

Is the lace trim durable?

The lace trim is delicate and designed for aesthetic appeal. While reasonably durable for its type, it requires careful handling to prevent snagging or tearing during washing and wear.

What is the fit like?

The top has a body-hugging fit, designed to sit comfortably and smoothly against the skin as a base layer.

Can I wear this as a standalone top?

While the lace detailing adds a feminine touch, its primary design is as a base layer. It can be worn as a standalone top in some casual settings, but it is best suited for layering.

Troubleshooting

Strap top feels itchy.

Ensure you are washing the garment with a wool-specific detergent. Merino wool is typically very soft, but some sensitivities may still occur. Ensure the garment is properly rinsed.

Garment has lost its shape after washing.

Avoid wringing or twisting the garment. Lay flat to dry, reshaping it gently while damp. Do not use a tumble dryer.

Pilling or small balls forming on the fabric.

Some minor pilling is natural with merino wool and silk blends over time, especially with friction. This can often be carefully removed with a fabric shaver. Avoid excessive rubbing during washing and wear.
