Material
This t-shirt is made out of 72% Gots​ certified organic merino wool and 28% silk. In other words: A completely natural product. Silk is a very durable material, and by mixing it into the blend we are able to make the product with very fine wool without it compromising the durability of the t-shirt.

Using organic wool means that there are strict requirements that need to be met throughout the whole value chain. Toxic chemicals are not used, the wool is mulesing-free and the garments are not treated with Superwash or other similar treatments, to name a few examples. Read more about why we use organic wool and its advantages here.

Wool is "self cleaning", meaning that you don't have to wash this t-shirt as much as you wash t-shirts in other materials. Hang it out to air after use, and voilà! Good as new.

The founder of Northern Playground, Jo, has used a tank top in the same material for over 200 days – without washing it. He has worked out, partied, skied and hung out at the office it in. And no, there's not just something wrong with Jo's nose. He did a blind test at the office, and the result was unanimous: The tank didn't smell at all. It's win-win: Save the environment, save your clothes, and hey – nobody likes doing laundry anyway, right?

Design philosophy
A key part of our design philosophy is that we don't care about trends. We design clothes that will look good in 2, 10 and 100 years. Our goal is to design classics. Every. Time. That also means that our clothes have clean and simple designs, come in timeless colors and are without big logos and illustrations.

Community
Blue, green, black, rust and white are the colors that our t-shirts will always be available in. Sometimes we also have limited releases, that are decided by our customers. Fall of 2020 we launched a small amount of the t-shirt in yellow – a color picked by our Community.

Lifetime service
This product (and all our other products) come with a lifetime service. Our biggest goal is to reduce overproduction, and what happens after you have purchased a product is just as important as how it is made. That's why we offer free repairs of all our clothes when necessary, as long as you take good care of the product and use it as long as possible.
