Iksplorer Merino Nursing Tee
Most nursing tees are cotton and indoors-only. The Iksplorer Nursing Tee is merino wool and built for wherever the day takes you. Temperature-regulating enough to wear in summer heat, with UPF 50 sun protection and discreet nursing access that works without a cover.

The nursing tee that goes everywhere you do.
Built from 100% merino wool, the Iksplorer Nursing Tee brings the same discreet nursing access as the Iksplorer Nursing Long Sleeve in a short sleeve cut made for warmer days. Merino is one of the best warm weather fabrics because it breathes naturally, wicks moisture before you notice it, and regulates temperature so you stay comfortable as the day heats up. The built-in UPF 50 means sun protection on covered skin without sunscreen, which makes a genuine difference on long trail days or time at the lake with a baby in tow.
The cross-panel nursing design keeps you well covered while feeding without taking down the whole upper quarter of your top. No clips, no hooks, no latches. Just a thoughtfully designed panel that works whether you are nursing with a view on a mountain trail, feeding at a summer festival, or nursing at home on a warm evening.
The relaxed fit works comfortably under a carrier, accommodates a postpartum body without restriction, and reads as a standard tee when you are not nursing. Most Iksplor families find they keep wearing it long after their nursing days are done.
Layer with the Iksplorer Nursing Long Sleeve on cooler days or under a light jacket for year-round versatility.

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.

Your base layer matters—especially when you’re balancing feedings, hikes, and school drop-offs. The Nursing Tee Shirt keeps pace with every season and stage of motherhood: lightweight merino that shields from sun on the trail, layers effortlessly under a jacket in winter, and lifts easily for discreet nursing—on the couch, the campsite, or anywhere adventure calls.
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 top can be composted in six months.
