The Merino & More brand's shirts and polo shirts combine sustainability with function.
Are you looking for merino shirts that you can wear for sports and everyday life? Then the pieces from Merino & More might be something for you.
Shirts for sport, work and everyday life
The shirts combine a 38 per cent proportion of merino wool with Tencel. This is a synthetic fibre made from cellulose from sustainable forestry. Elastane is also added for a better fit. According to the manufacturer, this combination ensures greater comfort without itching. Important for anyone who has previously avoided woollen products. There are no sewn-in labels, which means no chafing during sport.
Merino is temperature-regulating
Merino wool clothing has become increasingly popular in recent years. One of the reasons for this is that the fibres keep you warm in winter and cool in summer. This is also the case with this breathable shirt. Moisture is wicked away from the body.
Merino wool is also odour-inhibiting. Even after strenuous activities, the antibacterial properties of wool neutralise possible odours.
Sustainable and easy to care for
Sustainability was taken into account during production. According to the company, everything is produced in the EU. The material complies with the Oeko-Tex Standard 100 and the merino wool used is mulesing-free, which means that the sheep are not subjected to this very painful procedure.
In everyday life, it is often enough to hang the clothing out in the fresh air for a few hours. If washing is necessary, do so at 30 degrees and without fabric softener. You should air dry the shirts flat. But you probably know this from other woollen items.
The shirts and polo shirts are not body-hugging, so they don't fit close to the body.
Galaxus says: Are you sceptical as to whether merino wool really doesn't smell, even if you do sport in it? Then trust me: I have many items of clothing made from the material and can confirm this. The items only really need to go in the washing machine if, like me, you accidentally spill drinks on them.
