Woolpower Zip Turtleneck 200

Description

The Woolpower Zip Turtleneck 200 is a very comfortable zipper turtleneck. This sweater is made mostly of merino wool and has a longer back, keeping you wonderfully warm. The sweater is woven in a “loop shape,” which retains more air and keeps you even warmer. In addition, there are no longitudinal seams to provide optimal comfort. Because this sweater is largely made of merino wool, it not only keeps you warm, but also wicks away moisture quickly and keeps away nasty odors. This turtleneck is suitable for wearing as a mid-layer, with a thermal shirt underneath if necessary. In short, if you are looking for a warm sweater that will keep you wonderfully warm, then this sweater is ideal.

Merino wool has the advantage that unpleasant odors do not linger. So it is not necessary to wash the clothes, even for a first use. Woolpower even recommends simply airing the clothing.
If you still want to wash the clothes, you can do so with
special wool detergent.

You can then wash the clothes even at 60℃. This is because the wool is first treated in the “superwash,” creating a pre-shrinkage.

Materials

Merino wool

Merino wool comes from merino sheep and is widely known for its high quality. Merino sheep have much more hair than other sheep. About ten times as many hairs grow per square meter as an average sheep. As a result, the wool is thinner and longer, feels very soft and does not itch. Merino sheep live in areas with large temperature fluctuations of -20 ºC to over 35 ºC. Their fur acts as a heat regulator. As a result, merino wool keeps you warm in the cold but breathes well. In addition, merino wool has excellent moisture management and self-cleaning properties, so you won’t easily suffer from perspiration marks and odors on your clothing.

Polyester

Polyester is a synthetic material made from petroleum. It is a durable, smooth fabric that is soft to the touch. In addition, it is lightweight, does not require ironing and dries quickly. A disadvantage of polyester is that it does not absorb moisture well and is not very warm.

Polyamide

Polyamide, also known as nylon, is a synthetic material made from petroleum. Polyamide is a strong fabric that does not tear and wrinkle easily. It is light, elastic, easy to fold and dries quickly. A disadvantage of polyamide is that it does not absorb moisture well.
