Care Instructions

Protect the delicate 100% merino fibers to maximize the lifespan of your tee:

• Wash: Machine wash cold (30°C) on a gentle or wool-specific cycle with similar colors.

• Detergent: Use a mild liquid detergent. Never use fabric softeners or bleach, as they will degrade the natural wool fibers and strip away their moisture-wicking capabilities.

• Drying: Do not tumble dry. Tumble drying 100% merino will cause significant shrinkage. Line dry in the shade immediately after washing.

• Ironing/Dry Cleaning: Cool iron if necessary to remove wrinkles, but avoid ironing labels. Do not dry clean.

X-Boundaries Professional Tips

• The Minimalist Traveler's Secret: The Tech Lite III is arguably the ultimate travel shirt. Thanks to its pure merino construction, you can comfortably wear this tee for several days in a row without it developing any odor. It severely cuts down on the amount of clothing you need to pack.

• Air It Out Instead of Washing: To extend the life of the shirt, don't wash it after every single use unless it is visibly soiled. Simply hang it on a hanger overnight in a well-ventilated space; the wool will naturally refresh itself by morning.

• Mind the Hardware: Because the 150-weight fabric is ultralight and 100% natural wool, it can be susceptible to snags. Be mindful of exposed velcro, aggressive backpack mesh, or heavy metal hardware rubbing continuously against the fabric to prevent premature wear or pilling.
