Top shirt!

Very happy with this shirt. Very nice as a midlayer under my 3-in1 jacket, but also pleasantly warm and comfortably soft at home. The collar that can be unzipped is very nice. For me, the collar could have been a little higher so that it retains heat better.

Perfect for hiking, less for brisk walking

I wear this Merino on mountain hikes (HRP, ski trekking, etc.). During training, when walking quickly, the seams and inserts under the arms really hurt. It would be nice if the seams were flat so as not to hurt.

Good

Nice little wool

very comfortable and warm in mid season. The cut is good because neither too tight nor too wide to play the strengths of Merino wool.

Perfect

The FORCLAZ merino range is just perfect. Comfortable, warm, light.

It is recommended that you buy the cheapest one, which is sufficient and looks better. This one simply has more zippers and is a bit more expensive. Personally, I don’t think it’s worth it.

Excellent for hiking

Wicks away perspiration while remaining warm. Limits odors unlike synthetic sweaters.

After a lot of searching, it was a perfect success. Wonderfully warm!

From good information on the website (size, quality, product specification, etc.) to fast shipping.

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.
