WHAT ARE OUR COMMITMENTS IN FAVOUR OF ANIMAL WELFARE?
We only use wool from merino sheep bred on farms in South Africa that do not practise mulesing.
We decided to build a partnership with a group of breeders (Konsortium Merino) to guarantee respect for animal welfare and the environment.
This means we have full traceability, which allows us to guarantee the origin of the wool.

Odour control
The component limits perspiration odours. This Merino wool t-shirt can therefore be worn
several days in a row and means you can take less clothes when trekking making for a lighter backpack!
Reduction of the freezing effect
When you make a physical effort and sweat heavily, the merino wool easily traps the insulating warm air and can absorb up to 35% of its weight in moisture without making you feel damp, which is appreciable in cool weather. In hot, dry weather, the evaporation of the water in the wool absorbs energy, which cools the body slightly at the same time.
Conversely, a synthetic material lets the body temperature go back down again faster.
Tip before use
For a softer feel, wash your t-shirt before first use.
HOW TO WASH YOUR T-SHIRT MADE WITH MERINO WOOL?
We recommend that you machine wash your MT500 MERINO wool T-shirt at 30°C on a normal cycle, preferably with liquid detergent.
Dry flat and NEVER tumble dry unless you want it to shrink by one or two sizes!For more information:
