How does the MT500 Merino T-shirt limit odours?
The components used reduce bad odours. Laboratory tested to standard ISO 17299-3. Main fabric: 89% Merino wool
Mesh panels and a mesh fabric under the arms and in the middle of the back: 66% Merino wool, 24% Polyamide, 10% Elastane.
How does the MT500 Merino wool T-shirt help perspiration evaporate?
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.
What is the fit of the MT500 Merino wool T-shirt?
This T-shirt has a slightly fitted sports cut to help wick away moisture to the outside of the fabric. Select your usual size, or one size larger if you prefer to wear your T-shirts looser.
Where does the Merino wool used for the MT500 Merino wool T-shirt come from?
We 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)
So we have complete traceability, meaning we can guarantee the origin of the wool.
