Men's Silk Long Underwear Top

Silk Long Underwear Top - super lightweight and feels like a ‘second skin'. Provides extra thermal warmth, without bulk, under your everyday clothing.

Made from pure and natural, single knit, stretch silk for a comfortable, easy fit.

• Long sleeve, crew neck top with cuffs on sleeves.
• Adds a discreet thermal layer, without adding bulk, even under jeans.
• Can be worn year round in colder climates under everyday, or recreational, clothing. (Perfect for hiking and skiing.)
• Silk Long Underwear makes wonderfully comfortable pyjamas - particularly useful for people who have limited use of their limbs, as the smooth silk does not restrict movement as it slides easily across bedding.

About Silk

Pure silk has been treasured for thousands of years and not only because it looks good. Soft, smooth and luxurious against your skin, silk is also a natural insulator providing thermal warmth in cooler temperatures, and releasing warmth to keep you cool when it’s hot. Silk is highly breathable and draws moisture away, releasing it into the air, to keep you dry and comfortable. It is well suited to sensitive skin.

New Zealand Nature clothing is made from ‘filament’ silk where the long, natural threads are directly unwound from the cocoon of the mulberry silkworm. It’s recognised as the highest quality silk. This versatile, knit fabric is incredibly strong and durable relative to its lighter weight and yields garments with a smooth sheen. It retains its shape and optimises silk’s inherent breathable properties.

This Silk Long Underwear Top is made from premium quality, single knit (jersey), stretch silk. Light weight, super stretchy and highly breathable, it’s ideal for underwear. It’s supremely comfortable and feels soft and smooth against your skin. It’s quick drying. Single knit silk is durable for its weight, but due to the jersey weave, it may ladder (run) if damaged.

Care Directions

Silk is a delicate fabric and can be damaged by washing with harsh detergents and/or on vigorous washing cycles.
For best care, hand wash separately to avoid pilling. Use mild detergent. Do not bleach. Lay flat to dry, avoiding direct sunlight. Do not tumble dry. Can be dry cleaned.
