WHAT ARE OUR COMMITMENTS TO ANIMAL WELFARE?
We only use wool from Merino sheep raised on farms in South Africa that do not practice mulesing.
We have decided to build a partnership with a group of breeders (Konsortium Merino).
HOW DID WE IMPROVE THE DURABILITY OF OUR MERINO WOOL T-SHIRTS?
We used a BETA-SPUN yarn structure in which polyamide filaments form a thin sheath around the merino wool fibers. This protects them from chafing and cutting without compromising their benefits.
ODOR CONTROL
The components used limit perspiration odors. Laboratory-tested to ISO 17299-3
So you can take fewer clothes with you on treks!
LIMITING THE FREEZING EFFECT
After heavy exertion and perspiration, wool helps maintain body temperature, whereas a synthetic material brings the temperature down more quickly.
The unpleasant cooling effect or "freezing effect" is limited by merino wool.
A FINAL WORD OF ADVICE BEFORE USE?
For even softer components, wash your T-shirt before using it for the first time.
HOW DO I WASH MY T-SHIRT CONTAINING MERINO WOOL?
We recommend that you machine-wash your tee-shirt containing merino wool at 30°C, normal cycle, preferably with a liquid detergent.
Dry flat. NEVER tumble dry unless you want a merino doll tee-shirt!
