Washing & Care Instructions

Purple Mountain Observatory Wool Performance Long Sleeve T-Shirt - Our FAQs
- What are the benefits of the merino wool blend used in the Purple Mountain Observatory Wool Performance Long Sleeve T-Shirt in Khaki? Merino wool naturally regulates body temperature, wicks sweat quickly, and resists odor causing bacteria, making it an outstanding choice for technical baselayers.
- Does this wool shirt scratch against sensitive skin? No, the fine gauge merino fibres are exceptionally soft and spun to ensure a completely smooth, itch free feel against bare skin.
- How do I wash this garment to avoid shrinking the fabric? Wash in cold water on a delicate wool cycle with a gentle detergent, and lie it flat to air dry rather than using a tumble dryer.
- Can I wear this long sleeve top during warmer weather? Yes, the lightweight merino blend is highly breathable and actively cools your core by releasing trapped heat when temperatures rise.
- Will backpack straps wear down the shoulder seams? Flatlock stitching is reinforced and placed strategically to prevent premature friction wear and pressure spots under heavy shoulder straps.
