M's Desoli Light Half Zip
Description
Comfort and performance provided by nature itself, that’s the idea behind our pure merino wool Desoli Series. Men's Desoli Light Half Zip is a slim fit base layer with a tight fitting high collar and half zip for easy venting. The cut has a slight back drop and the sleeves have hidden thumb loop for extra comfort.
Men's Desoli Light Half Zip is made in Solid Merino™, a light, stretchy and thermoregulating fabric in pure 17,5 μm merino wool. The 150 g/m² knit is suitable for 4-season use and feels soft as a feather against the skin. Pure, unblended wool enhances the natural qualities of the wool: It helps regulate your body temperature, it’s naturally antibacterial to help you stay fresh longer and stays warm even when wet. Avoiding synthetic blends or treatments also makes the fabric fully circular. When your Desoli base layer is worn out, it can be recycled or even composted. Nature’s resources will not go to waste!
We can recommend Men's Desoli Light Half Zip for any activity when you need to stay warm but not get overheated. Running, hiking, cycling or training in the summer. Ski touring, snowshoeing or ice climbing in the winter. You can hardly go wrong with a garment as versatile as this one.

Care advice
Woolen clothing
Wool is a fantastic material that has natural dirt and bacteria resistance. Therefore, wool does not need to be washed after each use. Hang up and vent instead. Too much washing deteriorates the wool's properties and wears out the garments unnecessarily.
- Feel free to use a laundry bag that protects your garments.
- Wash with a gentle program or wool program, maximum 30 degrees.
- Preferably use wool detergent and be sure to use the correct dosage. If you do not have detergent for wool, you can use mild environmentally certified detergents. Then choose a detergent without enzymes that has a neutral pH.
- Avoid bleaches, alkaline substances that raise the pH value and enzymes such as proteases or amylase because some enzymes break down proteins and fats in the wool. This also applies to silk.
- Avoid fabric softener. In addition to being bad for the environment, it impairs the garment's performance, especially moisture transport and drying time.
- Do not tumble dry, in addition to being bad for the environment, wool garments are sensitive to high heat.
- Shape the garment after washing and let it dry flat on, for example, a towel.
- As wool is a natural and living material, it is relatively easily shaped by external influences. Therefore, store your woolen garments folded and do not hang them on hangers to avoid the garments losing their shape.
sustainability
circular
This product is completely circular, which means it is made from either recycled and recyclable or renewable and biodegradable materials. Most products in today's society are linear, where the earth's resources are extracted, used and then discarded. This does not work in the long run and causes enormous strain on the environment. Instead, we want to close the circle and reuse the materials we already have. But we need your help. When your Houdini products are completely worn out, return them to us through our recycling units located in all our own stores and many retailers.
biodegradable
The material in this product is biodegradable. Thanks to the fact that we do not mix our natural materials with synthetic fibers and do not use harmful chemicals, you can compost the product and the only thing left is nutritious soil. Details such as washcloths, zippers, seams, etc. must be cut off and can usually be recycled separately. If you do not have your own compost, you can return the product to us when it is completely worn out. We have recycling units in all our own stores and at many retailers.
Recyclable
The label Recyclable means that the fabric in this product is completely recyclable. Instead of becoming waste, the material can be used to manufacture new products.
