Why is a wool and silk shirt so pleasant?

The combination of 70% organic wool and 30% silk is popular for a reason. Wool helps your body regulate its temperature and can absorb moisture without immediately feeling clammy. The silk makes the fabric extra soft, smooth, and supple.

This makes this shirt wonderful if you get cold easily, but also if you tend to get warm quickly or perspire a lot. After all, wool isn't just meant to keep you warm – it primarily helps to keep your body at a comfortable temperature.

How does the ENGEL Natur wool silk shirt fit?

The wool silk shirts from ENGEL Natur have a rather slim and nice, long fit. They fit snugly against the body, allowing you to easily wear them as a base layer without having too much excess fabric under your clothes.

Doubting between two sizes? Choose the larger size. The shirt will still have a nice, slim fit, and you will gain a few extra centimeters in length. This is especially nice if you like to tuck your shirt into your trousers or skirt.

Does a wool silk shirt itch on the skin?

Wool with silk feels significantly softer than many people expect when they hear the word "wool." The addition of 30% silk gives the fabric a smooth and soft texture, which is exactly why this quality is widely used for underwear worn directly against the skin.

Are you very sensitive to wool? Then we often find wool with silk to be a nicer choice than 100% wool. Ultimately, sensitivity is personal, but this ENGEL quality is truly beautifully soft.

Can you also wear the burgundy shirt without anything over it?

We would love it if you did! Especially in this beautiful BORDEAUX color, we think it’s almost a shame to always hide it under a sweater. It is a warm, deep shade of red that pairs beautifully with denim, black, cream, gray, and all sorts of earth tones.

In spring and summer, you can simply wear it as a thin T-shirt. If it gets cooler, just throw a cardigan or jacket over it. This turns woolen underwear into a very versatile piece of clothing.

Is a wool silk T-shirt also suitable for summer?

Absolutely. Wool might have a wintry image, but thin merino wool is surprisingly pleasant in higher temperatures. The wool helps regulate heat and moisture, while the silk makes the shirt feel light and supple.

This means you can actually wear this ENGEL shirt all year round: as an extra warm layer in winter and as an airy, natural basic during the warmer months.

How often should you wash a wool shirt?

The beauty of wool is that you need to wash it much less often than, for example, cotton. Wool hardly absorbs any unpleasant odors. Hang the shirt outside, by an open window, or in the bathroom after wearing it, and it will often be fresh enough for another wear.

Washing less is also better for the wool and ensures that you can enjoy your shirt for longer.

How do you wash an ENGEL Natur wool silk shirt?

Does the shirt need washing after all? Use a cold wool wash program and always use a suitable wool detergent. We recommend Lanalicious wool detergent with lanolin for this. The lanolin nourishes the wool and helps keep the fibers soft and supple.

After washing, it is important to carefully pull the shirt back into shape lengthwise. Then let it dry flat. Do not wring and do not put it in the dryer.

For whom is this ENGEL wool silk shirt a good choice?

For anyone looking for a soft, natural, and multifunctional shirt. As a woolen undershirt, T-shirt, extra layer during cold days, or even as a soft shirt to sleep in. And thanks to that beautiful burgundy red color, we think this is one that deserves to be seen.
