Measurements

Sizes given first the usual way, then with more intricate measurements of the user. Please note that in undergarments like this the sizing is very forgiving; these will easily fit shorter and taller people up to 190 cm (6' 3") and beyond. For a tighter fit, you can choose a smaller size than you would normally use.

Wash and care

Wool wash at 40° Celsius / 104° F. Don't leave them in a wet lump after washing. Reshape them gently while still damp. When not in use, air them out and give them a good shake after that. We also sellwool care products.

Washing is usually unnecessary - wool cleans itself. You only need to wash the clothes if you see stains or they start to smell really bad. This usually requires lots of continuous use without airing. Of course these being long johns, it's probably wise to wash them quite often, if not only out of principle.

Don’t just violently snag them away from your feet when donning or undressing. Being somewhat gentle makes sure your long johns last you a long time.

Description

As the weather gets cold and nasty, so do cotton undergarments. The answer is to switch to merino wool. These have a nice, snug fit for the best functionality. We had these made in Lithuania just for us.

Our merino wool long johns are fairly standard type, with non-chafing seams, long enough legs, and form fit. These are moisture-wicking, dry fast, and self-rinsing, which helps with maintenance. For those concerned, these don't itch either, but rather form a second skin. No fly, so you have to lower the waist to pee. This means they work better for women too.

The best thing you can layer next to your skin

Merino wool is a fantastic choice for next-to-skin wear; most notably it feels good against the skin and retains it´s insulating properties even when soaking wet. So it's like regular wool, but better. Oh, and did we already mention how nice it feels?
