Frequently asked questions
Are merino thermals warmer than polyester thermals?
Weight for weight, yes — merino fibre traps more air and keeps insulating even when damp, unlike most synthetics.
Can you wear merino thermals all day?
Yes. Merino is naturally odour-resistant and breathable, so it stays comfortable for all-day wear indoors and out.
How do I wash merino wool thermals?
Cold gentle machine wash or hand wash, dry flat in shade. Avoid tumble drying, which can shrink wool.
Do you ship Australia-wide?
Yes — all thermals ship Australia-wide from Darrahopens.
