How does the ENGEL wool silk long-sleeve for women fit?
The shirts from ENGEL Natur are known for their long and fairly slim fit. They sit nicely against the body, making them very comfortable as an extra layer under a sweater, blouse, or cardigan.
Doubting between two sizes? Choose the larger size. The shirt will still have a nice slim fit, while you get that bit of extra room and length. Especially if you like to tuck your long-sleeve into your trousers or skirt, that extra length is very nice.
Why is a long-sleeve made of wool and silk so pleasant?
The combination of organic wool and silk is truly ideal for clothing worn directly on the skin. The wool helps regulate your body temperature and can absorb moisture without immediately feeling clammy. The silk makes the material extra soft, supple, and smooth.
As a result, this wool silk long-sleeve is not just great if you get cold easily. Even if you heat up quickly, perspire a lot, or suffer from temperature fluctuations, this material can be wonderfully comfortable.
Does wool silk itch on the skin?
Wool with silk feels much softer than many people expect from woolen clothing. Because of the addition of 30% silk, the fabric is smoother and finer than pure wool, making it particularly suitable for wearing directly on the skin.
Are you very sensitive to wool? Then this 70% organic wool and 30% silk quality is often a very pleasant choice.
Can you also wear this ice blue long-sleeve as a sweater?
Absolutely. That is actually one of the reasons why we love these shirts so much. The fabric is thin enough to be worn as underwear, but the fit and color also make it beautiful as a simple, nice sweater.
The soft ice blue shade combines very nicely with denim, cream, gray, sand, brown, and navy. Wear it loose over trousers or a skirt, or combine it with a cardigan or jacket.
Is a wool silk long-sleeve only suitable for winter?
Not at all. Wool may be famous for its warmth, but it is primarily a great temperature-regulating material. In winter, this long-sleeve keeps you pleasantly warm, while the thin wool silk quality remains wonderfully breathable in spring and on cooler summer days.
That makes this such a fine basic that you will wear for many more months a year than you might expect.
How often should you wash a wool long-sleeve?
Preferably as little as possible. Wool hardly absorbs unpleasant odors and therefore does not need to go into the washing machine after every wear.
Hang your long-sleeve out for the night after wearing, by an open window, or in the bathroom. It is often completely fresh again afterwards and can be worn again immediately.
How do you wash an ENGEL Natur wool silk long-sleeve?
Does the shirt need washing anyway? Choose a cold wool wash cycle and always use a special wool detergent suitable for wool and silk.
We recommend Lanalicious wool detergent with lanolin for this. The lanolin nourishes the wool and helps keep the fibers nicely soft and supple.
After washing, gently pull the long-sleeve back into shape lengthwise and let it dry flat. Do not wring and do not tumble dry.
Who is this ENGEL Natur long-sleeve ideal for?
For anyone looking for a soft, natural, and versatile basic. Under a sweater on cold days, as an extra layer while hiking, at home, as a pajama shirt, or just as a fine thin sweater: this ice blue wool silk long-sleeve is the kind you will find yourself reaching for surprisingly often.
