The top that makes all your favorite adventures possible again.
Built from 100% merino wool, the Iksplorer Nursing Long Sleeve brings everything parents love about the Iksplorer Long Sleeve and adds discreet nursing access designed specifically for active, outdoor families. The cross-panel design keeps you well covered while your baby feeds without taking down the whole upper quarter of your top. Several Iksplor families find they no longer need a nursing cover at all, even out and about.
There is no hardware to wrestle with. No clips, no hooks, no latches. Just a thoughtfully designed panel that works intuitively whether you are on a trail, at a ski area, or nursing at 3am in a cold room.
The merino regulates temperature naturally, which is a genuine advantage postpartum when your body is already doing its own temperature regulation work. It wicks moisture quickly, resists odour through multiple days of wear, and the relaxed fit accommodates a bump during pregnancy, a postpartum body, and a carrier over the top without restriction.
The thumb holes keep sleeves in place under gloves and jackets, and the extra length stays tucked in properly through a full day of activity.
Not nursing? The Iksplorer Long Sleeve is the same merino top without the nursing panel.
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.

better for the planet
Merino comes from our wooly friends, the merino sheep. Unlike polyester/synthetic fabrics that end up in our landfills for hundreds of years (yikes), the nursing long sleeve can be composted in six months.
