Karpos DINAMICO MERINO 130 W JERSEY LS, women's shirt

The Dinamico Merino 130 W Jersey LS is a first layer designed to provide comfort and breathability and wick moisture away from the skin. The fabric is made of 92% merino wool, whose properties include the ability to insulate from both cold and heat — but above all, the ability to help conserve heat even in wet conditions.

Naturally antibacterial, merino wool controls odors, is soft to the touch and against the skin, and provides protection from UV rays. Our Dinamico Merino 130 Jersey LS also offers high thermal insulation and breathability, characteristics that make the garment ideal for various winter outdoor activities — from ski mountaineering outings, to climbing, to the exploration of new trails on foot or by mountain bike — always making us proud of our ethical choices. The wool used is certified as mulesing free, a responsible and ethical choice that reflects our philosophy.

Mulesing is a surgical procedure through which flaps of flesh and skin are removed from the perianal area of merino sheep to protect them from the spread of infections linked to attacks by flies that deposit their eggs there. This procedure is performed without anesthesia or antibiotic treatment, and it does not always protect the animal from infection. In fact, it is so invasive that it can lead to the death of the sheep.

We are absolutely against this practice, which is why we’ve chosen a yarn that is certainly more expensive but allows us to do our small part to respect animals.
