Kids Merino Jogger & Crew Set
"The perfect in-between layer! They wear it on its own as a cute little sweat set or layered over their baselayers for skiing. We'll be rocking these all winter long and they will make perfect camping layers" — verified Iksplor family
The midlayer your kids will call their cozies. Soft enough to sleep in, warm enough for ski days, and pulled out of the wash before it's even fully dry.
Once kids grow out of the Zippy, this is what they reach for. The Kids Midweight Merino Jogger & Crew Set is the perfect in-between layer. Wear it solo as a soft sweat set, or over the Iksplorer baselayers when the temperature really drops.
- 100% midweight merino wool. Noticeably thicker than the baselayer, built for real cold
- Crew neck top. Relaxed, cosy fit that layers easily over a long sleeve without bunching
- Drawstring waist jogger. Adjustable fit across the size range, stays put through active days
- Built-in UPF 50. Natural, chemical-free sun protection in every fibre
- Temperature-regulating. Warm enough for camping nights, breathable enough for active days
- Naturally odour-resistant. Multi-day wear without washing, a genuine win for everyone
- Sensory-friendly. Soft against even the most particular skin
- Machine washable. Gets softer with every wash
Kids grow fast! When they need to size up, send it back through our Iksplor More Program—giving it a second life with another adventurer.
The Zippy gets them through babyhood. This set takes them through everything after.
The Kids Midweight Merino Jogger & Crew Set sits between the baselayer and the shell. Thicker and warmer than the Iksplorer Long Sleeve and Legging, but packable and breathable enough to wear as a standalone outfit on cooler days. On ski days it goes over the baselayer set for serious warmth. On milder days it goes straight on as a sweat set for forest school, camping mornings, or any day that calls for something cosy.
The crew neck is relaxed enough to pull on and off easily, and the jogger's drawstring waist adjusts across a range of builds. Both are built from 100% midweight merino — the same temperature-regulating, odour-resistant fibre your family already trusts, just more of it.
Pairs with the Kids Merino Iksplorer Long Sleeve and Legging for a full layering system.

Where It's Made

How to Care
- Machine wash on the gentle cycle with cool or cold water and a mild or wool-specific detergent
- Lay flat to dry to preserve shape and softness, or tumble dry on low with similar items
- Hang outside for a few hours to refresh between washes — merino naturally resists odours and bacteria, so it rarely needs a full wash
Storage
Store in a clean, dry space. Use airtight bags or bins and add cedar blocks or lavender sachets to prevent moths. Wash or air out periodically to remove any residue that may attract them.
