About

A ribbed half-zip with a wide, fold-over collar, knit from 100% extra-fine merino wool, shown in pale peach (also in cocoa, cabernet and heathered pine). There's no nylon or spandex in the knit, so it's wool against the skin from collar to hem.

Materials

100% extra-fine merino wool.

What it is made of

The The Half-Zip Sweater in Luxe Merino is made entirely of merino wool. Merino wool is fine enough to feel soft, regulates temperature without synthetic finishes. That composition is what Toxome scores, and it earns 90 out of 100 on the fiber scale, where 100 is cleanest.

FAQ

What is the The Half-Zip Sweater in Luxe Merino made of?

It is 100% merino wool.

Is merino wool safe to wear?

Merino wool is fine enough to feel soft, regulates temperature without synthetic finishes. Toxome rates every fiber on what it does to the body of the person wearing it, and publishes the reasoning rather than a badge. The score covers the fiber, not the dyes and finishes a mill adds later.

How does Toxome score clothing?

Toxome reads each garment's fiber composition and scores it on what that fiber does to your body, not on a brand's sustainability marketing. A higher score means a cleaner fiber. Composition is taken from what the brand publishes, so the score reflects the label rather than our opinion of it.
