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!

Test

We've tested the material in a climate-controlled chamber in order to determine its performance level. The results highlighted the heat-regulation properties of wool. Indeed, after making a physical effort and sweating a lot, wool helps to maintain a consistent body temperature while synthetic fabrics cool down faster. The unpleasant cooling or "freezing effect" is therefore reduced by the merino wool.
