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.

LEARN ABOUT LAYERING

Why Merino Wool?

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. 

TOTAL EASY CARE

MACHINE WASH AND DRY

Total Easy Care (TEC) Merino apparel is designed for today's busy lifestyle. Total Easy Care Merino garments are all machine-washable, and are suitable for tumble drying.

Even after frequent laundering they retain an 'as new' appearance. They won't shrink, lose their shape, fade or color-bleed. They remain soft and comfortable for the life of the garment.

Just ok for something so VERY EXPENSIVE.

This is the first item from Minus 33 I am disappointed with and I own allot of their stuff. I washed it once, dried on low and I'm shocked at how wrinkly it got. The bonded fleece and wool wrinkled like crazy. I recommend NOT following the instructions and ONLY dry cleaning it. The whole thing looks like a wrinkled suit now especially along the seams. The fleece is no longer smooth either and kind of "pilly" or at least will [pill like crazy now. I'm going to replace it and try again because I love this hoodie fit and finish was initially impressive, but I will not laundering per the instructions ever.

Hi Smitty,

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We apologize for any disappointment you have experienced with our Expedition Brushed Wool Hoodie. We pride ourselves on providing high quality products and we understand your frustration with the wrinkling after washing. Smitty, I would be happy to assist you with a replacement and we hope you will give us another chance to exceed your expectations. Thank you for being a loyal customer and for providing valuable feedback. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Kindly,

Rain concern

I like the item for cold and snow, however it was not a good option in a severe downpour.

Hi Roy,

Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback. It's great to hear that the Kodiak Fleece Brushed Wool Hoode kept you warm in cold and snowy conditions. Although wool still insualtes when wet, it is not waterproof so it will absorb rain when it is a severe downpoor.

Thank you for your supprt and for sharing your expereince with us, it is greatly appreciated.
