Frequently Asked Questions

Fit & Care

Are your merino wool button-downs UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) rated?

Yes, the dark grounded shirts are 30-UPF and the white grounded shirts are 25-UPF. A garment with a UPF of 30 only allows 1/30th of the UV radiation falling on the surface of the garment to pass through it. In other words, it blocks 29/30ths or about 97% of the UV radiation. Tested by the Australian Radiation Protection And Nuclear Safety Agency.

How do I clean my wool shirt?

Sit back and let the wool do the work. When necessary, we recommend taking your shirt to the dry cleaners (specify that you want the shirt dry cleaned and NOT laundered) or hand washing. You can also wash your shirt on cold in the washing machine with regular laundry detergent. Don’t use bleach or fabric softeners. Don't use oxi-clean or tide-to-go pens (including bleach-free pens.) Lay flat or line dry. You may use an iron on low heat or a steamer to help smooth out any wrinkles that occur in washing.

How does your clothing fit?

You can see the specific body measurements for each style on the "Size Guide" link found on the product pages. 

What is superwashed wool and do Wool&Prince products use superwashed wool?

Superwashed wool is wool that is machine washable and, therefore, will not felt or shrink like untreated wool. Superwashed wool is made by exposing the fiber to a chlorine gas that erodes the scales and then it is coated in a plastic resin called Hercosett 125. One yard of our t-shirt fabric has .45 grams of resin, about half the weight of a raisin. The scouring mill has a EU Ecolabel Certificate and is Standard 100 by Oeko Tex.

Orders & Shipping

Do you ship outside of Europe?

Yes, but only from our US site: woolandprince.com.

How does Wool&Prince Europe ship and when can I expect my order?

-DHP / D4U to Benelux
-DHP / EUROPACK to Germany

Our Europe warehouse is located in the Netherlands. You can generally expect your order to be delivered within 4-10 business days, depending on your proximity to the warehouse

What about duties and taxes?

Within the European Union and the United Kingdom, orders are shipped DDP (Delivery Duty Paid). All taxes and duties are included in the final price. Due to air shipment requirements, Malta & Cypress orders will incur a €50 surcharge.

Outside the European Union and United Kingdom, all orders are shipped DDU (Delivery Duty Unpaid). Therefore, your order may be subject to local taxes and import duties, which are imposed by your local customs office or the shipping carrier. We are unable to calculate the exact amount in duties and taxes your order might incur. We do not cover any such taxes, duties or related charges.

Where does your wool come from? Do you use mulesed wool?

One of the values of our company is to do better, and we are committed to being a changemaker in the wool industry. A part of being a changemaker is to observe how certain practices are currently being carried out, and actively working to improve them. Our goal is to be part of the solution to reduce the practice of mulesing in the long-term. We currently use non-mulesed and mulesed wool in our garments. One of the sources we buy wool from is transitioning away from mulesing through the use of selective breeding and active management to control flystrike, a deadly parasitic infection. This takes time to safely suppress in a flock without the use of heavy chemicals. As a result of our work with this farm, they are committing more resources to accelerating their transition away from mulesing. By the end of 2024, all of our garments will be made from non-mulesed wool.

We stand firmly behind our policy to "do better" and are hopeful that we can be part of the solution to reduce mulesing in the long-term. We are pleased to be working toward a solution that reduces the widespread practice of mulesing in the wool industry. We believe that the health and wellbeing of sheep should be prioritized in the most humane way possible. We’re looking forward to taking you on this journey with us.

How do I become a Field Tester?

We’re always looking to feature more Field Testers. The best way to become a W&P Field Tester is to send us (or even better, tag #woolandprince in) beautiful images of you doing awesome things in our shirts. Hell, a Wool&Prince item doesn't even have to be in the picture. The more pictures you send us, the better! Once we know each other a bit more, we can talk about an official Field Tester photo shoot. Take a look at some examples.

What's a Field Tester?

Field Testers blur the lines between work and play—and look pretty good doing it. We send these guys product so they can test it out before it’s available to the public. We also do a photoshoot and interview with each field tester to highlight their story. We hope their stories inspire your next adventure!

Preorders & Pricing
