Great shirt

This shirt keeps me very comfortable when doing outdoor activities in the winter. When doing strenuous activities (e.g. snowshoeing) at a few degrees below zero (Celsius) I am comfortable with only this shirt on my upper body. I'll get more of these for next winter.

Comfortable

Enjoying so far. First merino wool shirt I’ve owned. Will see about durability. Price point seems almost too good to be true but alas the decathlon way.

light weight

light and warm. But it causes itchy on my skin if I wear it for a long day.

Bargain merino wool top

Leroy's review

I wore the short sleeved merino base layer on a 12 mile back packing walk on the Wold Way. It was a hot day and I was carrying my 33 litre back pack. The base layer wicked moisture away efficiently and I did not feel uncomfortable despite the weight I was carrying.

Perfect

Possibly the best product Decathlon sell. Just as good as branded stuff twice as expensive. Love the anti odour properties

“Top” value

Merino for this price is excellent

Too delicate

I'm very disappointed with this T shirt as it's already got several runs in the material about 4 inches long. Hardly lasted any time & the material is too delicate for hiking use.

Great tech T-shirt, used for MTBing, walking and climbing. I’ll be getting another few

Stylish and Comfortable

Well fitted top, soft and comfortable and dries really fast after washing.

Great T-shirt (and no pong!)

Bought this for a trek in the Atlas Mountains knowing that there would be at least three days without showering. Comfortable, reasonably quick-drying and it really didn't pong at the end of it all. The only negative was the slightly itchy stitching for the cable on the sleeve. A quick un-pick with my penknife and problem solved. Really impressed, especially at the price.

Additional Product Information

Composition

Main fabric

  • 89% Wool
  • 11% Polyamide

Yoke

  • 89% Wool
  • 11% Polyamide

Sizing and fit

This T-shirt has a slightly fitted sporty cut that facilitates moisture transfer toward the outside of the fabric. Select your usual size or 1 size larger if you prefer a looser fit.

Durability

Use of a BETA-SPUN yarn structure in which the polyamide threads coat the Merino wool fibers and protect them from rubbing and cuts without affecting their properties.

Origin of the merino wool

We only use wool from Merino sheep raised on farms in South Africa that do not practice mulesing. We decided to build a partnership with a group of breeders (Konsortium Merino) to guarantee respect for animal welfare and the environment. We thus have complete traceability, which allows us to guarantee the origin of the wool. More information: https://www.forclaz.fr/merinos-2019-bp_4128

Odor control

Wool from Merino sheep naturally controls the spread of bacteria that cause bad odors. This Merino wool T-shirt can therefore be worn several days in a row and means you can take less clothes when backpacking making for a lighter backpack!

Reduction of the chilling effect

After exercise and heavy sweating, Merino wool prevents evaporation, helping to maintain body temperature by absorbing the majority of the body's moisture. This therefore reduces any unpleasant chilling effect. Conversely, a synthetic material lets the body temperature go back down again quicker.

Tip before use

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 T-shirt at 86°F on a normal cycle, preferably with liquid detergent. Dry flat and NEVER tumble dry unless you want it to shrink by 1 or 2 sizes!
