Sixs TS13 Long Sleeve T-Shirt Merino

Long-sleeved turtleneck jersey with zip Carbon Merino Wool
A simple and extremely versatile knit made from Carbon Merino Wool®, ideal as an undergarment or mid-layer.

The fabric weight of 164 g/m2 makes this product particularly suitable for use in low temperatures.

The polypropylene layer in contact with the skin prevents the accumulation of perspiration and offers unrivalled comfort. The merino wool (one of the natural fibres with the highest thermo-regulating capabilities) is properly placed in the outer layer to act as a barrier.

THE SECRET FORMULA
After the great success of the two sock models (LUXURY MERINOS and ARROW MERINOS) whose composition included merino wool, we decided to expand the product range by creating a special line: MERINOS WOOL. A special winter line with thermo-regulating properties made from wool, which is superior to any other natural fibre and therefore acts as an excellent barrier against the cold!

POSITION OF THE MATERIALS

We wanted the comfort of the product to match that of the other products in the SIXS catalogue.

For this reason, we decided to bring polypropylene into direct contact with the skin and leave the merino wool (known to be somewhat rougher and bristlier than other yarns) on the outside.

Wool has thermo-regulating properties that are superior to any other natural fibre and acts as a barrier against the cold. Polypropylene, on the other hand, is a hydrophobic yarn, i.e. it does not absorb liquids and optimally wicks away perspiration.

Finally, carbon helps to regulate heat, improves the body's microcirculation and is bactericidal (combats bad odours) and antistatic.
