White merino wool, an exceptional quality.
A white shirt is obvious, but white wool is not. No sheep has one hundred percent white wool. It will always contain some grey fibres. These fine fibres all have to be sorted out. But even then, the wool is not entirely white but a bit cream-colored. That is why our white merino fabric is so exclusive.
Our Italian weaving mill also spins the yarn, and they even have their own farms where the sheep graze. That gives them complete control over the whole process. It starts with the selection of the whitest wool. Then follows a delicate process of sorting, after which the wool is washed and finished according to the strictest environmental standards. Without compromising the original qualities of the merino wool. The spinning, weaving, and finishing of the white wool is done in a separate production hall to avoid contamination with other colours.
As with the other colours, you can enjoy all the advantages of merino wool in the white shirt. You don't have to worry about odours or wrinkles. This shirt will keep you warm when it's cold and cool you down when it's hot—a perfect match for your on-the-go lifestyle.
Since wool is a natural product, it can yellow slightly over the years. A bit like a cotton shirt also becomes less white over time. Extreme heat and UV light have can speed up this process. Wear it like any other shirt, but iron it on low temperature, don't dry in direct sunlight, and store it in your closet.
Merino wool, the perfect 4 seasons material
It’s natural. It’s renewable. It’s durable. It’s stunningly comfortable. And it outclasses cotton or synthetic fiber on any level. Yes, Merino Wool ticks all the boxes. Oh, and did we mention it’s wrinkle resistant, not affected by body odor and temperature regulating in every season?
Corozo buttons, sustainable and responsible
We use Corozo buttons in our shirts. This 100% natural and practically indestructible nut comes from the Tagua tree – otherwise known as vegetal ivory.
