  - title: Description
    content: |
      Merino is one of the most widely used fabrics in outdoor apparel, but until now, it lacked the durability serious adventurers demand. Bushbuck Merino is the solution. 
      
      The Merino Wool 200 Half Zip is a versatile, functional, comfortable mid-weight base layer. It can be worn on its own in warmer weather or as part of a layering system in cooler temperatures. The unique Merino/Cordura® blend has excellent abrasion resistance, so you can feel confident to push the limits. 
      
      Featuring a raised collar for sun protection and extra warmth, a low half-zip for temperature regulation, mesh vent sections for added breathability, and a secure chest pocket, the Merino Wool 200 Half Zip is an essential item for every adventurer's pack.
      
      This shirt's abrasion-resistance has been independently tested and found to be 5x stronger than regular spun Merino wool. Watch the Combat Merino tech talk to learn how we made Merino Wool durable. 
      
       Our Merino base layers are designed to be a next-to-skin fit. For a looser fit, we recommend sizing up.

  - title: How To Wash Merino
    content: |
      Merino is naturally odour-resistant, so it doesn’t need to be washed as often as other fabrics. You’ve probably heard that regular Merino clothing can get damaged in the washing machine. Bushbuck Merino’s durability means it’s washing machine safe, but we still recommend following these care instructions to extend the life and performance of your Merino gear. Machine wash with cold or warm water less than 30°C on a gentle cycle. Skip the spin cycle if you really want to take good care of your gear. Alternatively, hand wash with cold or warm water less than 30°C. We recommend using a mild, wool-approved laundry detergent. Do not use fabric softener, bleach, or heavy-duty stain remover. Do not tumble dry as merino can shrink when exposed to too much heat. Hang it up out of direct sunlight to dry.
