TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
WHAT ARE OUR COMMITMENTS IN FAVOUR OF ANIMAL WELFARE?
We only use wool from merino sheep bred on farms in South Africa that do not practise mulesing.
We decided to build a partnership with a group of breeders (Konsortium Merino) to guarantee respect for animal welfare and the environment.
This means we have full traceability, which allows us to guarantee the origin of the wool.

HOW HAVE WE ENHANCED THE DURABILITY OF OUR T-SHIRTS MADE WITH MERINO WOOL?
We have used a BETA-SPUN yarn structure in which the polyamide threads coat the Merino wool fibres. This protects them from rubbing and cuts without affecting their properties.
Odour control
The components used reduce bad odours. Laboratory tested according to ISO 17299-3
This means you can carry less clothing when trekking!
REDUCING THE FREEZING EFFECT
After any physical effort that involves a lot of perspiration, wool helps to preserve the body temperature while synthetic fabrics cause the temperature to drop faster.
The unpleasant cooling or "freezing effect" is therefore reduced by the merino wool.
Do you have a final word of advice before using it?
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 Merino wool t-shirt at 30° on a normal cycle, preferably with liquid detergent.
Dry flat. NEVER tumble dry unless you want to end up with a Merino T-shirt fit only for a doll!

TESTS AND WARRANTY
Test product
The Trek 500 Zip T-shirt was tested by 9 users in the Massif des Bauges in October 2019. These testers, who are independent of Decathlon, were supported by our design teams: Maïté, our product engineer, Mélanie, our designer and myself, the product manager. For 5 days, we tested this T-shirt together in cold, snowy conditions, with some fine days of walking and a number of nights in a bed-and-breakfast or bivouac. We used this test to validate the product in use.
