Award-winning. Adventure-proven. Kid-approved.
100% merino, soft, breathable, and temperature-regulating enough to go from under snow pants at 7am straight to bed after a big day out.
- Outside Magazine's Best Kids Baselayer 2024. The only recognition that matters: tested in the real world
- Thumb holes: keep sleeves in place under jackets and gloves, kids are obsessed with them
- Temperature-regulating: cool in the heat, warm in the cold, merino does the work automatically
- Room to grow: extra length designed for growth spurts and a second season
- Sensory-friendly flat seams: no tags, no rough edges, nothing to complain about
- Machine washable: gets softer with every wash
Ask any Iksplor family and they'll tell you the same thing: once their kids are in these, getting them out is the hard part.
The Kids Merino Iksplorer Long Sleeve is built on 100% merino wool, the fabric that regulates temperature naturally, wicks moisture before kids notice it, and resists odors through days of wear. It works as a base layer under ski gear on a -14° day, as a standalone top at forest school in the autumn, as sun protection on a summer trail, and as PJ's when the day is done.
The thumb holes are a genuine favourite. Kids love them, and parents love that sleeves actually stay put under jackets and gloves. The extra-long fit is intentional: generous enough to tuck in properly and sized so most families get a full season and a half before needing to size up.
Pairs perfectly with the Kids Merino Iksplorer Legging for a complete base layer set or wear solo as an everyday top in the warmer months.
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 odors 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.

better for the planet
Merino comes from our wooly friends, the merino sheep. Unlike polyester and synthetic fabrics that sit in landfills for hundreds of years, this nursing hoodie composts in six months instead. It's 100% natural merino wool, renewable and biodegradable from sheep to soil.
what parents are saying
Yes, 100% Responsible Wool Standard (RWS) certified merino wool. No blends, no synthetic fillers, just the real thing.
Not with this merino. Superfine fibers are soft enough for sensitive skin, with none of the itch people associate with old wool sweaters.
Both. Merino regulates temperature naturally, so it works on cold mountain mornings and warm summer nights alike. Plenty of Iksplor kids wear theirs as pajamas all year round.
Yes, that's exactly what it's built for. Soft, non-bulky, and warm enough to wear on its own or layered under a jacket on the mountain.
True to size, though our top run a little long in length, so there's a bit of extra room to grow into through a growth spurt.
Yes. Send them back through Iksplor More for cash or credit, giving them a second life with another adventurer.
