Deodorising cleaner and conditioner for woollen technical underwear and wicking clothing worn next to the skin. Nikwax Wool Wash™ effectively cleans, softens, freshens, inhibits the build up of body odours, accelerates drying and improves cooling efficiency of woollen base layers.
Why technical wool base layer fabrics dry quickly and cool you down.
Woollen base layers are designed to be worn next to the skin, providing user comfort by maintaining body temperature and controlling moisture. They are highly wicking (will spread moisture out over a large area), fast drying and breathable. It is therefore essential to maintain these properties when caring for woollen base layers.
Woollen Base layers need to be cared for properly to keep them in optimum performing condition.
Base layers are fantastic for regulating your temperature and controlling body moisture, but to keep them functioning properly care must be taken when washing.
It is recommended to wash woollen items in mild liquid detergents and to avoid using powder or bio detergents, which contain enzymes. Using conventional household detergents or fabric conditioners can impair wicking properties by causing the fabric to retain moisture. This leads to reduced wicking capabilities and slow drying of the fabric, resulting in reduced user comfort. Additionally, standard household softeners and conditioners can lead to pilling over a number of washes.
