MERINO VEST “KUFAJKA”

Merino wool hardly needs an introduction… So here’s ours: the “Kufajka,” a vest made from merino wool fleece. In short – a wonderfully fluffy and warm “sheepskin” with a retro style! 😀 The fleece length is a generous 8 mm, and the fabric density reaches 450 g/m²! For the neckline, we’ve added a super soft and delicate ribbed trim, made of 99% merino wool!

What can you expect from the vest?

Everything that merino wool has to offer:

• Excellent Thermoregulation – Keeps you cozy when it’s cold, yet prevents overheating when it gets warmer. Plus, it provides UV protection.
• Moisture-Wicking – Merino wool draws moisture away from the body and, unlike cotton shirts, doesn’t make you feel cold when you sweat during activity. It dries very quickly. 🙂
• No Itchiness – This type of wool is extremely gentle and pleasant on the skin, even when in direct contact.
• Breathable – Perfect for intense activities thanks to its breathability!
• Elasticity – Moves with your body while maintaining its shape without stretching or deforming.
• Antibacterial Properties – Merino wool inhibits the growth of bacteria and fungi. This means:
  1. It minimizes unpleasant odors when you sweat.
  2. You can (and should) wash it less frequently than cotton or synthetic clothing.
• Eco-Friendly – Merino wool is 100% biodegradable.

The merino wool we use is sourced from the EU and is certified “mulesing-free.”

Care Instructions for Your “Kufajka”

The “Kufajka” is a unique product that deserves special care. 🙂 Here are a few tips:

1. Shake It Out – Before first use, shake your vest to remove any loose fibers.
2. Air It Out – If the wool smell feels too strong, simply air it outside before wearing.
3. Material Changes Over Time – The fabric structure may slightly “compact” during use.

Maintenance Tips:

• Absorb fresh stains with a dry tissue.
• Gently brush out or spot clean older stains.
• Refresh your wool by airing it out or… freezing it!

Washing Advice:
Machine washing is not recommended, but if you decide to take the plunge 😉, remember:

• Use a wool cycle.
• Avoid fabric softeners.
• Do not spin excessively.
• Never tumble dry.

The fleece used for the vest has a slight tendency to feel a little “scratchy.” However, the ribbing used for the collar and pocket is exceptionally soft and pleasant to the touch.

NOTES:

Custom-made product. You can find a list of finished products in the “off the shelf” category.
