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. More information: visit our website

HOW HAVE WE ENHANCED THE DURABILITY OF OUR T-SHIRTS?

We use a BETA-SPUN yarn structure, i.e. the merino wool fibres are coated with a fine sheath of polyamide filaments to protect them from rubbing and cuts, without affecting the properties of the wool.

How does the wool reduce odours from perspiration?

The component reduces odours from perspiration. 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!

Reducing 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.

Do you have a final word of advice before using it?

For a softer feel, wash your t-shirt before first use.

How do I wash my Merino wool t-shirt?

We recommend that you machine wash your Merino wool tee-shirt at 30° on a normal cycle, preferably with liquid detergent. Dry flat. NEVER tumble dry unless you want to end up with a Merino T-shirt fit only for a doll! For more information: https://support.decathlon.co.uk/how-to-maintain-a-merino-wool-garment
