Test Lab: Batch 496 Lightweight Men's Wool T Shirt Crew - 100% Merino Wool

Test Lab: Batch 496 The Technical Details This product features an experimental finishing technique. Our goal was to push the limits of the durability of the fiber surface to create a cleaner, more resistant finish. The Result While the process successfully increased the fabric&';s structural integrity, it altered the final "hand feel" of the wool. You will notice a slightly more rugged, textured feel than our traditional superfine jersey. It lacks our signature "buttery" softness, feeling more like a classic, heartier wool. Test Lab Disclaimer The Feel: "Heartier" and textured (not as soft as our standard 17.5-micron line). The Look: Subtle tracking lines may be visible on the garment. The Care: You may notice slight fabric puckering after the initial wash as the fibers relax. This stabilizes after 2-3 launderings. Because this technique is still in the experimental phase, we have not launched it as part of our permanent collection. We invite you to put this experiment to the test and report back on how it performs in the wild.

Benefits of Merino Wool Moisture WickingMerino wool is the best fiber to regulate moisture. It does this by absorbing sweat from your skin and releasing it into the air. Whether you&';re hiking, running, biking, on the job, or just relaxing at home, our wool helps keep you dry and comfortable all day long. Soft & ComfortableMerino wool fibers are much finer than traditional wool, creating a luxuriously soft feel that won&';t itch or irritate your skin. Comfortable enough for everyday wear and gentle enough for sensitive skin, it&';s a natural choice for underwear, base layers and next-to-skin comfort. Highly BreathableMerino wool&';s unique structure allows air to circulate freely, helping to regulate your body temperature in both hot and cold weather conditions. Whether you&';re layering up for winter or staying cool in summer, Merino keeps you comfortable by letting your skin breathe. Anti-MicrobialMerino wool naturally resists odor-causing bacteria, keeping you fresher for longer. No lingering smells, even after extended wear. Perfect for travel, outdoor adventures, and everyday life. Insulates When WetMerino wool can hold up to 30% of its weight in moisture without feeling wet or clammy against the skin. Unlike cotton or synthetic fabrics, it keeps insulating when damp, making it a smart choice for unpredictable weather and high-output activity. Fire ResistantMerino wool is naturally fire-resistant and self-extinguishing. It will not melt or stick to your skin like synthetic fabrics. A trusted option for first responders, campfire safety, or any high-heat environment. UV ProtectionOur Merino wool clothing helps protect you from the sun&';s harmful rays, with different levels of UPF based on fabric weight: Microweight (145 GSM): UPF 20 Lightweight (170 GSM): UPF 25 Midweight (235 GSM): UPF 50+ Heavyweight (400 GSM): UPF 50+ These natural UV-blocking properties make Merino wool ideal for long days or the beach or above treeline. Renewable and SustainableMerino wool is a natural, biodegradable fiber with a low environmental footprint. Grown by Australian Merino sheep and shorn seasonally, it is a renewable material that supports responsible farming practices.
