The timeless classic and unmissable sleeveless waistcoat by Maglificio di Verona for children is finally available from 3 to 8 years.

Knitted in two yarns on a gauge of twelve, worked in a shaved knit with rib trim on the sleeve lap, collar and knit bottom. 

Made from the best 100% pure merino extra-fine wool that is shrinkproof and certified according to Oeko-tex criteria with first class, an extremely light, fresh, soft and comfortable yarn.

The Merino Wool used for this garment is world famous for its softness, strength, versatility and performance.

It is a 100% natural fibre and is produced by 71 million sheep living on water, air, sun and grass. 

At the microscopic level, each Merino Wool fibre is like a coiled spring that, after being folded, returns to its natural shape. This gives Merino Wool garments a natural resistance to wrinkling and thus makes them easy to care for. Merino Wool is one of the most breathable fibres; in fact, it can absorb large amounts of vapour that are then released into the air, thus keeping the wearer drier.

Compared to synthetic fabrics, therefore, Merino Wool is active and reacts to changes in body temperature by keeping warm when it is cold, but dispersing heat and moisture when it is hot. Furthermore, Merino Wool is able to absorb the sweat molecules responsible for odours, which are only released after washing.

Merino wool fibres are extremely fine, allowing them to bend much more than the fibres of traditional wools, which makes it enormously soft and gentle on the skin. 

Most Merino Wool garments can be washed in domestic washing machines at 30° with gentle laundering, finally answering the frequently asked question ‘How do I wash Wool?’ 

Another magnificent aspect of this Wool is that it naturally offers high UV protection, far superior to most synthetic fabrics and cotton. Evolved over millions of years to protect sheep against the elements, Merino wool absorbs UV radiation providing protection from the sun.

A classic and evergreen garment to keep in your wardrobe, suitable for both occasion and everyday wear.
