Really great merino t-shirt with long sleeves and a collar around the neck. I use it for all winter and spring activities and I am extremely satisfied. The material is nice and warm, while wicking moisture well. Size XL is a bit looser for me but still within the limits of good usability. Overall an excellent product.

Very nice shirt. Works great as a first layer. I recommend it

Lightweight and comfortable to wear

Great product

I used it on a day between 4 and 1 degrees, with another technical shirt over it and a snow jacket. What can I say, it made me warm and still breathed very well, without bad odors. Excellent purchase.

Overall good

A little disappointed by the look of the product that I imagined differently with its zipper and folded collar, it is not incredibly warm either, just warm, at the price of the product I expected to be pleasantly surprised, it is perhaps my expectations that disappointed me

Excellent for hiking.

valid!

two (mini) points of improvement: - thumb loops on the sleeves, - a slightly longer zip. otherwise it fulfills its role perfectly!

icon-circle-checkmark verified purchase

I wear it when I go out for running in cold weather. Suitable for keeping warm, wicking sweat and not smelling. It is recommended to wear it with a T-shirt when jogging in the morning or on the road.

Additional Product Information

Composition

Main fabric: 86.0% Wool, 14.0% Polyamide ; Yoke: 98.0% Wool, 2.0% Polyamide

Odour control

The components used reduce bad odours. Laboratory tested to standard ISO 17299-3.

Reduction of the freezing effect

After exercise and sweating heavily, Merino wool prevents evaporation helping to maintain body temperature by absorbing the majority of the body's moisture. This therefore reduces any unpleasant chilling effect.Conversely, a synthetic material lets the body temperature go back down again faster.

Tip before use

For a softer feel, wash your t-shirt before first use.

How to wash your t-shirt made with merino wool?

We recommend that you machine wash your MT500 MERINO ZIP T-shirt at 30° on a normal cycle, preferably with liquid detergent. Dry flat and NEVER tumble dry unless you want it to shrink by one or two sizes!For more information: https://support.decathlon.co.uk/how-to-maintain-a-merino-wool-garment

Product testing

In November 2018, 8 trekkers (4 men and 4 women) and part of the Forclaz design team tested this T-shirt for four days in the Southern French Alps (Lus La Croix Haute). You can expect wind, rain, a bit of snow, a bivouac... and a lot of fun! We were then able to make the final modifications and validate it for mountain trekking use.
