Kids Merino Iksplorer Tee
"A fantastic everyday layer — Iksplor's wool is great on my kids' sensitive skin." — verified Iksplor family
The t-shirt your kids will actually want to wear. Soft enough for sensitive skin, built-in UPF 50, and temperature-regulating enough to work from morning hikes to school days.
The Kids Merino Iksplorer Tee is the piece that earns its place in every season. Wear it solo on warm days, layer it under a mid or baselayer in the cold, and send it through the wash without a second thought.

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 Kids Merino Iksplorer Tee is the t-shirt upgrade your family didn't know it needed. Made from 100% merino wool, it's soft enough for sensitive skin, breathable enough for warm days, and warm enough to layer when the temperature drops.
Merino wool regulates temperature naturally — so your kids stay comfortable whether they're hiking in the sun or layering under a mid for a cold morning on the mountain. It wicks moisture before they notice it, resists odours after a full day out, and comes out of the wash looking brand new.
The relaxed fit works as a standalone tee on warm days or as a base layer under a fleece or mid layer in the cold. UPF 50 sun protection means no sunscreen required on covered skin — a genuine game-changer for long days on the trail or at the lake.
Brand new to the Iksplor range — built on the same 200gsm merino fabric your family already loves.
Fabric
100% Responsible Wool Standard (RWS) Merino Wool
200gsm, 18.9 micron — lightweight, breathable, and perfect for year-round use
Where It's Made
Our merino wool pieces are thoughtfully crafted in Vietnam by skilled artisans following RWS guidelines. We believe in producing responsibly and sustainably, ensuring fair working conditions for the people behind our products.
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.
