Production note from RIDGE MOUNTAIN GEAR :
This product uses 100% New Zealand merino wool fabric.
The main features of merino wool material are "high heat retention", "good breathability", "humidity control", "high deodorant (antibacterial)", "heat resistance", and "UV cut".
REDA, which produces the merino wool used by RIDGE MOUNTAIN GEAR, is a long-established wool fabric manufacturer founded in Italy for over 150 years.
Sheep are bred freely on REDA's vast in-house ranch in New Zealand. The raw wool of the sheep is carefully knitted from raw wool to yarn and from yarn to fabric at our own factory in Italy.
Merino wool is a natural fiber. Even if it is shrink-proofed, some fabric shrinkage will still occur. This is unavoidable.
As long as it is a natural fiber, there is no choice but to shrink the fabric due to washing, but when making this T-shirt, RIDGE MOUNTAIN GEAR try to use a material that minimizes the shrinkage as much as possible.
In addition to the original high functionality of wool (heat retention, breathability, heat resistance, antibacterial properties, UV protection), this product is a high-performance material that makes full use of REDA's more than 150 years of experience, knowledge and technology.
Features :
1. Soft texture with less fluff
Merino wool is classified into various grades according to the fineness of the yarn that is the basis of the fabric, and the fineness is expressed in μm (micrometer). This time, the Merino Basic Tee uses a very delicate thread of 17.5 μm (micrometer), which is described as "Super 120's", and is finished in a soft texture with very little "tingling" peculiar to wool.
2. Use New Zealand Merino
The use of New Zealand merino wool is proof that it is "non-mulling wool".
New Zealand has banned "mulesing", a cruel way to cut the skin and flesh of the buttocks in a lamb to prevent the infestation of maggots on the sheep, from October 2018. Using New Zealand Merino means using wool raw materials that are suitable for animal protection.
3. 100% merino wool, yet washable.
Shrink-proof processing is applied over several steps to prevent the fabric from shrinking after washing as much as possible.
Even so, as long as it is a natural fiber, some shrinkage and skewing will inevitably occur. Please refer to the following care methods so that you can use the product for a longer period of time.
・ Please use wool detergent for washing.
・ Put the product inside out and put it in the laundry net, and wash it by itself.
・ The water temperature is limited to 40 ℃, and please avoid washing with boiling water.
・ Avoid strong water currents, you may hand wash or choose the "dry course" or "weak water flow
course" when using a washing machine .
・ Never tumble dry.
・ After dehydration, we recommend that you shape it and dry it in the shade.
・ If you do not wear it for a long time, keep it clean and store it with an insect repellent.
Regarding skewing after washing :
The advantages of the merino wool fabric used in the Merino Basic Tee have been mentioned above, but there are also disadvantages. One of them is "skew".
This skewing is inevitable due to the use of single yarn made of natural fibers, but it can be minimized by reshaping it to its original shape and then drying it after washing and dehydrating.
Due to the effect of this skewing, the collar, cuffs, and hem that are folded back and sewn after washing and drying may be distorted.
If you are worried about it, limit it to 150 ° C (medium temperature) and lightly press it with a steam iron to restore it to its original state.
* Be sure to use the ironing board when ironing.
Design :
As the product name says "Basic", the simple box-shaped design allows you to continue wearing it from the mountain to the city.
The specifications of the neck are made of a highly durable self-fabric binder to prevent the neck from stretching.
"Flat seamer" is a specification that uses a special sewing machine to match the fabric.
As the name suggests, the seams of the fabric are very flat and reduce the stress on the skin as much as possible. It is a manufacturing method that is often used for sportswear and baby wear because the seams are also durable.
