What to Consider
Materials & Construction
- ·Merino — Finer than standard wool with exceptional breathability. Naturally resists odor so you can wear it longer between washes — ideal for travel and everyday basics.
- ·Made by Cubreme in Argentina.

- ·Merino — Most merino is machine washable on gentle cycle. Lay flat to dry. Avoid fabric softener — it coats fibers and reduces performance.
Sustainability
- ·Merino — Renewable, biodegradable, and requires less washing — reducing water use over its lifetime.
Cost Per Use
- ·Merino — Merino basics cost more upfront but last 3-5x longer than cotton equivalents. Less frequent washing also reduces wear and saves on water and energy.
