Materials

This product uses 100% merino wool jersey from New Zealand. The main features of merino wool material include "high heat retention", "good breathability", "humidity control", "high deodorizing power (antibacterial)", "heat resistance", and "UV protection". REDA, which produces the merino wool jersey used by RIDGE MOUNTAIN GEAR, is a long-established wool fabric manufacturer founded in Italy for over 150 years.

Product features

1. Fewer fuzz and soft texture Merino wool is classified into various grades according to the fineness (fineness) of the fibers that make up the fabric, and the fineness is expressed in μm (micrometer). This time, the Merino Basic Tee uses a very fine 17.5μm (micrometer) thread labeled "Super 120's", and it has a soft texture with very little "tingling" characteristic of wool.

2. Use New Zealand Merino The use of New Zealand merino wool is proof that it is "non-mulesing wool". "Mulsing" is the cutting of the rump skin and meat from a lamb to prevent the sheep from becoming infested with maggots. The merino breed, which was bred to obtain as much wool as possible, has a wide skin area and deep wrinkles on the skin. In the worst case, maggots can eat the skin and meat, leading to death. "Mulsing" is a means to prevent it, but there are cases where no anesthesia and scar treatment are performed. New Zealand banned such cruel mulesing from October 2018. Using New Zealand Merino is also using wool raw materials suitable for animal welfare.

3.100% merino wool and washable.

Pre-shrunk processing is applied over several processes to prevent fabric shrinkage after washing as much as possible. Even so, as long as it is a natural fiber, it will inevitably experience some degree of shrinkage and skew. Please refer to the following care method to use the product for a longer time.

・Please use detergent for wool when washing.

・Please turn the product inside out and put it in a laundry net and wash it separately.

・The water temperature should be limited to 40°C, and avoid washing with hot water.

・Avoid strong currents when washing. When washing by hand or using a washing machine, please use the "dry course" or "weak water course".

・Never tumble dry.

・After dehydration, we recommend reshaping and drying in the shade.

・If you do not wear it for a long time, please store it with an insect repellent after removing the dirt.

Design

"Merino Half Zip Stand Collar" was created assuming a middle layer worn over a base layer. Regarding the fabric used, we use 195g/m2 thicker merino wool sheeting than the 145g/m2 merino wool sheeting used for the Merino Basic Tee Short & Long Sleeve. The silhouette is not a slim silhouette that follows the body, but a box silhouette that can be worn in a moderately relaxed manner.

Many of the wind shells and rain shells that are supposed to be worn on top of this have a hood. In that case, if you wear a middle layer with a hood, I think there are many situations where the neck becomes stiff due to the hood.
Protect your ears from the cold with a cap. I want to keep my neck clean even when wearing a wind shell or rain shell. This "Merino Half Zip Stand Collar" is recommended for those who say.

If you get hot during action, adjust the zipper opening and closing to let the heat escape.
