CHOOSING THE RIGHT SIZE

If your measurements are close to two sizes, choose the smaller size for a tighter fit or the larger size for a looser fit.

If your body measurements result in different sizes, we recommend using your chest measurement for tops and your hip measurement for pants.

HOW TO MEASURE YOUR BODY

Chest: Place the measuring tape around the fullest part of your chest/bust.

Waist: Place the measuring tape at your natural waist, the narrowest point on your torso.

Hip: Place the measuring tape around the fullest point on your hips.

Looking after your new Icebreaker couldn’t be easier –
just throw it in the washing machine (unless it’s an Outerwear jacket or Black Sheep Knitwear) and line dry. For specific advice on caring for your garment, please check its care label.

Additional Care Instructions:

Icebreaker garments are designed to be easy for you to care for. We recommend that you wash your Icebreaker garments on a normal warm or cool machine wash cycle with regular powder or liquid detergent, not wool detergent. Don’t use fabric softener or bleach. Separate lights and darks as usual. Also, do not expose any Icebreaker garment to heat and do not tumble dry. Line dry or lie flat in the shade.

NOTE: After your first 2-3 uses, we recommend that you wash the garment separately to diminish the appearance of any short fibers from the fabric.

Complete instructions for best results:

Wash like colors together (e.g separate lights and darks)
Wash prints inside out
Close all zippers
Use warm or cool machine wash on a normal cycle (avoid a hot wash, this contributes to shrinkage)
Use regular detergent, not wool detergent
Do not use bleach or fabric softener under any circumstances (your Icebreaker couldn’t be any softer)
Wash occasionally with denim (e.g. jeans with the zipper closed) or other coarse fabrics to remove any loose fibers.
Do not iron prints or labels
Line dry garments – do not tumble dry (except socks, see below)

For Icebreaker Coastal, Pureplus Jackets & Black Sheep Knitwear:

Dry clean only

For Icebreaker Socks:

Only socks: Tumble dry on a low heat, inside out

Answer:

Unsure of the exact weight, but it's not my father's wool. The Aries is very light weight and breathes very well. Idea for Fall, Winter and Spring conditions of the East Coast.

Answer:

Thanks for your question! Black sheep sweaters do not use the same weight system as other Icbreaker products. The 14 gauge reference means that the merino is very fine. The higher the gauge number, the finer the merino. Something to compare it to would be traditional chunky wool sweaters, which are usually 3 gauge. In comparison, Black sheep is very light weight.
