Fit FAQs

What if I am between sizes?

If you are between sizes, we recommend sizing up or down based on what fit type you would prefer, and based on how you plan to wear the piece. Our knitted merino is stretchy and you could realistically go with either size. If you would prefer an Athletic fit, size down. If you prefer a Regular or Relaxed fit, size up.

Do I need to size up/down to layer?

Generally, no, you do not need to purchase a different size than normal. Our base layers are designed to fit right into your current layering system. They are also designed to work with other products in our line, too. You may wish to adjust your sizing if you plan to wear one of our garments in a way that it is not intended, if that's the case please feel free to contact our customer service team for help.

Does your clothing run true to size?

Yes, our clothing runs true to size and is sized similar to most other American brands. If a sizing discrepancy is discovered, you will see fit advice in that product's specific listing.

Moisture Wicking

Minus33 Merino Wool regulates the amount of moisture on your skin by absorbing any moisture or sweat on your body. Then, the absorbed moisture evaporates out of the fabric into the atmosphere.

Anti-Microbial

Merino Wool fibers naturally reject any bacteria in moisture or sweat as it is wicked away, so foot fungus and smelly odor will not be a problem while wearing our products.

Insulates When Wet

Wool will absorb up to 30% of its weight in moisture without feeling wet or clammy. If you do get wet, wool will insulate you better than cotton or polyester materials.

Fire Resistant

Merino Wool insulates against high temperatures and does not readily catch fire. If it does, it self-extinguishes. When Merino burns, it doesn’t melt and stick to the skin like synthetic fabrics do.

UV Protection

Don’t worry about sunburn on a sunny day summiting a peak. Lightweight layers have a UPF rating of 25. Midweight and Expedition have a UPF rating of 50+.

Renewable

Merino Wool has a low environmental footprint and naturally returns to the elements. Shear a merino sheep in the morning, and in the afternoon they’re happily nibbling their way towards renewing next season’s clip.

Bad Surprise

I own many of these tops, I have loved them, & they have been the only tops that I ski in, but this order was a horrible surprise! The new & different styling with thumb holes (ugly, way too casual looking, & I will never want to use the ridiculous things) plus the extra stitching seams in the front only degrade it, now it only looks like a cheap tee shirt instead of the previous elegant merino tops which I could also wear out to eat in.

Hi there Cody,
I'm sorry to hear that you're not happy with the new style of 100% Merino Wool Sequoia Women's 1/4 Zip - Midweight. We are sorry that the thumbholes are not what you would prefer. We are happy to get a return set up. Or possibly an exchange for another one of our pieces. Please give us a call so we can help you out!

Loved it, then things changed

My sister gifted me with this one in black last year in January, and I wear it when we sleep over on our sailboat in winter. It’s incredibly soft and sleeping in the base layers is a pleasure. I also baby my Minus33 items in a wool wash. I was surprised when, as others noted, a hole appeared last week in the front of it. It’s not a snag but an inexplicable hole. Sadly, she does not have the email purchase order.

And so, my sister sent me a gray one for Christmas. I was so excited to have a brand new one. At first I thought she had ordered the lightweight version by mistake because the fabric is more slick than soft and the sizing is different. I need a size up in this one but it’s not the same product. It’s not as thick or soft either—I can see my hand through the fabric. We compared it to some of my husbands Minus33 items, and while it’s not identical, it’s more similar than the black one from a year ago. Idk if the expedition 1/4 zip would be more like my black mid-weight. Bottom line, I’m disappointed and stuck with a holey one and one’s that too small.

April,
I am so sorry for your frustrations. We do not want you to be stuck with a piece with holes in it without a replacement. I sent over an email to you directly so we can gather some more information and get this all fixed up for you!

Lovely, but…

Your 1/4 zip midweight pullover is super comfy and well constructed. The color is gorgeous. But I was disappointed to find that this style is so close-fitting. I normally order tops in M, because I prefer a roomier fit. This is skin-tight. While I cannot use it as a middle layer (as I’d intended), I decided that it will work as a base layer with an expedition weight vest on top. So, not a huge deal — but would warn others looking for a roomier fit to size UP!

Pamela,

We are very happy to hear that you think our 100% Merino Wool Sequoia Women's 1/4 Zip is super comfy and well constructed. They sure do pair well with the expedition vest on top.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review!
