The Houdini design team spend years looking for the right fabric in pure merino wool that meet our standards in terms of performance, comfort and sustainability. Many meetings, prototypes and extensive field testing later, the choice landed on a fabric called Solid Merino.

It’s a 100% merino wool fabric that will keep you warm when it’s cold and is naturally odor resistant. The wool is sourced from Australia and is guaranteed mulesing free. We never mix wool and synthetics and the reason is to achieve a completely circular product. The Desoli Crew is made from renewable fibers and is both biodegradable and recyclable. The fit is tight and the back is cut slightly longer to add extra comfort.

Houdini recommends Desoli Crew for any outdoor activity all year around. The light fabric is perfect as a base layer for skiing in cold weather, but also work for hiking, biking or climbing. The Desoli wool collection consists of a crew, zip, tee, tights and underwear. Mix and match to find your perfect base layer set.

This product is recyclable and Houdini kindly ask you to return it to them when it’s completely worn out. Houdini has recycle units in all our own stores and at many retailers.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

Wool material

Wool is a fantastic material with natural bacterial and dirt resistance. Therefore, wool does not need to be washed after every use. Frequent washing has a negative effect on the wool’s properties and unnecessarily wears down the garment. Instead, air your wool garments to reduce your water usage, save energy and make your garments last longer.

  • Use a washing bag to protect your garments and to prevent fibers from leaking. When cleaning the bag and filter in the machine, make sure to wipe it clean and throw the lint in your trash can. Never rinse it in water since we don’t want the fibers to end up in lakes or oceans.
  • Machine wash cold, preferably with a wool program.
  • If you can, use wool detergents. Otherwise use mild, environmentally certified detergents and make sure to use the right dose. Select a detergent that has a neutral pH and no enzymes.
  • Avoid bleach and alkaline substances that raise the pH value. Also avoid enzymes such as protease or amylase since these can break down wool, which give this material its natural performance properties. This also applies to silk.
  • Avoid fabric softener. Besides being harmful for our environment, they have a negative impact on the garment performance, mainly moisture transportation and breathability.
  • Do not dry in tumble dryer.
  • Shape the garment after washing and lay flat to dry.

SUSTAINABILITY

Circular

This product is fully circular, meaning that it’s made either from recycled and recyclable or renewable and biodegradable fibers. Most products in today’s society are made in a linear lifecycle, where earth’s resources are extracted, used and then discarded. This is not working in the long run and comes at a great environmental impact. Instead, we want to close the loop and reuse the material we already have. But we need your help. When your Houdini garments are completely worn out, please return them to us through the recycling units we have in all our own stores and at many retailers.

Biodegradable

The fabric in this product is fully biodegradable. Thanks to that fact that we never mix our natural fibers with synthetics and don’t use harmful chemicals, you can put the fabric in a compost and nature will transform the fabric into fertile soil. Trimmings like care labels, zippers, seams etc have to be removed and can often be recycled separately. If you don’t have your own compost, you can return the worn out garment to us. We have recycling units in all our own stores and at many retailers.

Renewable

The fibers in this garment comes from 100% renewable sources like wool or cellulose. We only use natural fibers that are produced in environmentally and ethically responsible sources. We use both natural and synthetic fibers, they both have their merits, but we never mix them to ensure a circular product. This means that the fabrics from all our products in natural fibers are fully biodegradable.
