Merino.techMerino Wool T Shirt Women - 100% Merino Wool Base Layer Women Short Sleeve Tee + Merino Wool Hiking Socks

This top is a good value. I have 3 of these shirts, 2 long sleeve and now the short sleeve. They all fit true to size. I have put them in the dryer and the do tighten a wee bit, but not to the point of no longer fitting. In fact, it made them a better fit for me because I am lean and prefer my base layers to fit my body. The sleeves on the short sleeve top are not cap sleeves, which I also like. So many short sleeve women's base layers have nonsense sleeves, barely anything past the shoulder. These are "normal". Only 4 stars because they are quite thin and don't imagine they will last more than a season or two, at the most.

I have never heard of this brand, but I wanted a merino t-shirt for day hiking, so I chose this one.I'm 5'5" 150lbs 40-34-30. The medium is fitted, but doesn't look like a sausage casing on me. I washed it on cold, and tumbled dry low for 10 minutes, and it shrunk a little. Still fits fine. It is a rougher merino than I am used to, but it's not itchy or annoying. I would buy this again.The free socks that came with it were too big for my women's size 8 feet, so my husband was happy to have a new pair of socks. He liked them.

I've paid more for socks alone that I end up hating, so I will say this order of four tees + a bonus sock pair with each was worth it for the socks. They're supportive, comfy, don't fall down, and my work boots don't smell like death at the end of the day (I also have carbon insoles, so that helps). That said... maybe they should stick to socks.Onto the shirts... I've really got a dilemma here. I've been wearing the same "uniform" for a decade, but my old merino wool shirt company changed their blend from 100% merino to 78% + some synthetic crap (they claim to make them last a little longer... merino wool is a delicate fabric. Not that their new synthetic blends are any more durable -- surely just cheaper to manufacture). On my most recent order of my former usual brands, all of them -- my goodness, you can feel and smell the filth after a day (I work a very physical job)... before even checking the label, I know when they've switched from 100% merino.I could tell from the photos I didn't love the style of these shirts; and indeed, they fit like you'd expect a prison uniform to, but at this point I didn't think I cared even with the side-eye from my husband. Then put me and my four new shirts into average 115-degree desert heat, and OH NO. These are slightly thicker than the 150 t-shirts I usually get, so I was already a little warmer than usual, and v-necks are typically not known for feeling strangling but this one was precisely that. Knowing I was going to be well outside the return window by the time I'd have the chance to return, I took scissors to all four pairs, chopped off all the sleeves, and cut four new necklines of varying depths for the 110-degree days vs the 120-degree ones. And maybe even some fish gills on one of the shirts for fun. I didn't have my sewing kit in the desert, so those didn't last long at all. Once they wore out, spent my last three months in two four-year-old old raggedy 100% merino t's of another brand.If I'd had all the time in the world and a sewing machine to work with these...Cheap tees have cheap-tee-width hems (AND BIG LABELS): on the neck, sleeves, and bottom. This shirt has it; it looks cheap from afar. This shirt will not transition you from day job to night life. Plenty of other merino tees will. Make narrower/less "athletic"/cheap-o hems by doubling these over and stitching them for more feminine hems. It'll make a world of difference.Other than the strangling v-neck which given time and resources I would have fixed proper (or returned), my only other major complaint was the stomach runs large and baggy. This is definitely a mislabeled male-cut t-shirt or its designer has never heard of an hourglass figure -- it happens. Again, given time and resources, usually an easy fix: wearing it, I have my husband pin two vertical lines down my back starting under my shoulder blades down to my hips, carefully remove, turn inside-out, and sew two straight lines right down. I'm no seamstress, and if I can handle that, ANYONE can. It's practically invisible (with a black shirt), and shirts fit like they were tailor-made. (I can't claim to have invented it. I took note from many tailors in India who made tops of much less forgiving fabric that fit like an absolute dream.)The fabric *will* tear on a dime... so have your sewing kit at the ready, anyway. Of my four, one came with a small hole upon opening the package. One formed a small hole after a day working at the garden. It's a 5-min stitch, but these are obvs not meant to last long (esp at this price). If you don't want to do the mending, go back to cotton, or buy a 250 weight and see how well that works for ya. ;)Mostly for the extremely poor fit, this is not the final brand I'm choosing for my uniform. I'm ordering 4 shirts of every brand to test, and when I find the right one, I'll order 200 and vacuum-seal them away til I need them.

I’ve bought several of these wool shirts over the last 4+ months, both from Amazon and from the Merino.tech website, and love how cool they keep me in the summer! I can be out and about in hot weather all day and any sweat dries so quickly with these and without leaving me stinky. These are amazing to travel to with since you can rinse them and they quickly air dry. I’ve found that there are some I’ve ordered that are different textures/thickness than others, but it seems more of the newer listings are the thinner material. They’re definitely more comfortable and breathable with the thinner material but I’ve run into several that are extremely sheer and I end up returning those. I am often between L and XL and own some of both in this brand, but I found these are more comfortable when I do size up.Colors I’ve enjoyed that were not sheer:Olive greenRainforest greenBurgundy wineEbony GraySolid Black V-neck (medium)Emerald V-neck (thick) - more blueThese were super sheer and I ended up returning them:Light tealMustardNature Green

This t shirt is soft and comfortable, but already has holes on the beltline after 4 - 5 wearings and two washings and dryings. May need to hand wash and hang dry. Don't know why those darn holes appear in front bottom of shirts?!

Edit- the seller reached out to me to get a replacement for free, I am happy that they were quick to resolved the issue.I had bought this shirt for a vacation to Scotland to layer under cardigans, I had worn it for about 2 hours in the airport before I noticed a hole, hadn't even made it to my destination. Very frustrated to spend that much money on a t-shirt and immediately get a hole in it.

Sounds weird, but this is one of the few companies where the photos match the merchandise.I hand washed it (I always wash new clothes). Easy to squeeze out water. Dried fast.Comfortable to wear in 74-90 degree F temps.I do note that my body gets a touch warm, but my arms and shoulders don't. Once I sweat, these merino tops really shine. I don't even notice "feeling" the clothes, the heat, etc.Inside out to wash (I soak them in a drop of wool wash in a gallon bucket of water), rinse, squeeze out water, lay out to air dry.Edited to add:Wore this shirt in Colorado, in bone dry temps of 30 to 80 F. As a base layer, I did not know I had it on, so comfortable. Not hot, not cold. Just comfort. Looked polished enough for a sit down restaurant.In my opinion, it's worth the price. However, it does need a hand wash, gentle wring out, and air dry to keep it looking its best.

Such a wonderful shirt I had to purchase a second one.

Ich bin bislang von Merino-Shirts gewohnt, dass diese - ohne spack zu sein - doch körpernah sind. Dieses ist jedoch wie ein normales, etwas kastiges Shirt geschnitten. Auch die Ärmel sind weit geschnitten. Hinzu kommt, dass das Kleidungsstück für mich persönlich zu kurz geschnitten ist. Ich habe es trotzdem behalten und vergebe 4 Sterne wegen- der Qualität, Merino halt- der wirklich schönen Farbe- der "Zugabe" - Merino-Socken.- die Größe/Weite und Länge bzw. Kürze mir persönlich nicht gefällt, anderen Kunden jedoch durchaus.Ich habe das Shirt letztendlich behalten, stecke es halt in die Hose und nutze es als wärmendes Unterhemd.

Wool t-shirts are a staple when you're traveling light (e.g. one carry-on bag for a two-week trip). The natural moisture and odor control means you can get multiple wears before needing to wash even after strenuous activity. Then you can hand wash, hang to dry and it's ready to wear by morning.I wore the bonus socks for a day of tough, technical snowshoeing in backcountry at -18°C. A mishap close to an otter pond had my foot break through the crust and my snowshoe got stuck under the ice, filling my boot with water. But wool keeps you warm even when wet!Despite being soaked through, the wool sock kept my my toes warm through the deep snow and frigid temperatures of the return trip. Wools socks are alway the go-to for cold weather and these performed the way I needed them to most.The quality of the Merino.tech products does not disappoint and I look forward to other offerings.

This is my second100% NZ Organic Merino Wool Lightweight Women's T-Shirt Short Sleeve Crew TeeMy boyfriend lived in my first one so much I had to get another! But seriously - this is one of the best quality wool garments I have owned. I wear it all the time (if I can get it away from my boy friend!) and wash and hang dry. Keeps its shape.

I closely read other reviews and checked out the sizing chart & ordered accordingly. I am VERY pleased with the quality and fit of this t-shirt. I was a bit concerned upon pulling it out of the package, as it looked on the shorter waisted side. However upon trying it on, it is the perfect length too. I also love the higher v neck style. I will definitely be wanting to order another one.
