*Limited Edition colours in Engel's 100% organic wool - note Spruce Green is a lovely deep grey/green that is hard to capture!
Soft fine rib organic merino wool thermal longsleeve top by Engel in a lovely buttery yellow and soft spruce green. This version has a similar neck line to the wool/silk thermal tops.
We love Engel's thermal layers. They form a warm and comfortable base layer for winter. Also available in matching leggings. The 100% merino wool is slightly thicker and therefore warmer than the wool/silk blend at 200gsm. 100% organic merino wool (IVN BEST certified), Made in Germany by Engel

Care: Handwash when required. Try SOAK wash for rinse free handwashing - see Wool Care. Size up if you want to use your gentle wool machine cycle as shrinkage may occur over time.
Note on using machine wash: Wool washing programmes of washing machines vary massively, therefore we can not grant warranty for any damages. With regards to using your wool washing machine cycle always use cold. If you choose to wash at 30 degrees the machine will still rinse with cold water and this shock to the fibres can cause the wool to shrink.
IVN BEST is the highest ecological standard that can currently be achieved in the textile industry, taking into account environmental & social welfare.
