ABOUT US
In 2002, Minus33 was created by textile engineers from L. W. Packard & Co. Inc. L. W. Packard has been involved in just about every aspect of the wool industry, and a proud family-owned business since 1916. In 1995, L.W. Packard was selected by Textile World magazine as one of the top ten textile plants in the world.
With so much of our family history rooted in the wool industry, combined with our genuine passion for the outdoors, it only made sense for Minus33 to emerge as a merino wool clothing brand. Minus33 began as a snowmobile brand, and quickly expanded to other outdoor markets, such as hiking, skiing, and hunting due the versatility of our product offering.

THE PERFECT BASE LAYER
Our Midweight styles have all the same natural qualities as our Lightweight Merino Wool, with greater insulation. Minus33 Merino Wool Clothing is perfect as a base layer for a day on the slopes or as an emergency pullover when a cold front rolls in just before you summit.
WHY MERINO WOOL?
MOISTURE WICKING
Minus33 Merino Wool regulates the amount of moisture on your skin by absorbing any moisture or sweat on your body. Then, the absorbed moisture evaporates out of the fabric into the atmosphere.
INSULATES WHEN WET
Wool will absorb up to 30% of its weight in moisture without feeling wet or clammy. If you do get wet, wool will insulate you better than cotton or polyester materials.
UV PROTECTION
Don’t worry about sunburn on a sunny day summiting a peak. Lightweight layers have a UPF rating of 25. Midweight and Expedition have a UPF rating of 50+.
RENEWABLE
Merino Wool has a low environmental footprint and naturally returns to the elements. Shear a merino sheep in the morning, and in the afternoon they’re happily nibbling their way towards renewing next season’s clip.
Long Sleeve V-Neck
Do you prefer a V-neck to a crew? Well, now you can choose! The Women's Midweight V-Neck gives you more room to breathe when you're working up a sweat. With all the amazing benefits of Merino wool, you'll be happy to have this piece when winter settles in!

Updated 2/27/23: The shirt’s fabric attracts dog hair like crazy! I have other black tops and this one was so much worse with the dog hair. Also, would not recommend machine drying. Based on other reviews, I machine washed and dried according to manufacturer’s instructions and it came out a wrinkly mess with some dog hair still remaining. I did not use fabric softener since that is not usually recommended for moisture wicking clothing, although the instructions on the tag did not specify. I also removed from the dryer immediately after the dryer cycle. Next time I will try air drying on a rack. Changed my rating from a 5 to a 3, very disappointed especially since this is an expensive article of clothing.————————-Love this shirt! The shirt is warm and not scratchy at all. Very comfortable and has some stretch to it. I wore this all day. I walked this morning in 14 degree windchill and I was warm and toasty with only this shirt under my winter jacket. I wore it the rest of the day in the house and was never overheated. The cut is very flattering with an athletic cut. I like that it has a v-neck instead of a crew neck. I am 5’6”, 150 lbs. and ordered a large because I didn’t want to use it as a skin tight base layer. Sleeve length and overall length of shirt is perfect. The cut is good not baggy or tight at all. I can use this as a base layer or just by itself as a top. Very versatile. The shirt has a one year warranty on material and manufacturing defects, 2 years if you register online. I can’t wait to try it for cross country skiing since it is supposed to be moisture wicking.

I'm relatively new to merino wool products in general so I'm only writing from a subjective point of view here. This shirt fits as expected, not tight but not loose. The back hem is longer than the front which is not uncommon for shirts. However, I find the front length to be slightly awkward for some reason. The sleeves are plenty long for me with no thumb holes.I read from several sources that merino wool is soft. Personally, I don't think it's OK. I have a neck gaiter that's 100% merino wool and it feels similar to this shirt. I'm starting to think this might be how it normally feels. It's not itchy or anything.This shirt is not thin. Decently thick. I got it the day I was going to play ultimate Frisbee pick up at night with temperature starting around 55F around 7 pm, and got lower that the night went. I think part half way through the whole thing it was around 48F and/or lower. I'm the kind that get cold easy. At first I had this shirt on and a sports jacket (UA cold gear) . It wasn't enough and I didn't even start running yet. So then I rearranged my layers to fleece, this shirt, and the same sports jacket. It was better. To me, the breeze cut through it but on top of the fleece shirt it was better.It was very cold for me that night. I'm gonna say this shirt contributed to keeping me warm. Had I worn it by itself, probably not so much. But again, I think it's made to be layered with something else. Wearing it by itself and expecting to be warm doesn't sound right.I'm not as excited about this shirt as I thought I would be, but that could be because I don't understand merino wool fully. It is a nice shirt, though, and I will continue to use this shirt for sure.I'm 5"3, 33 chest, 28 waist, 118 lbs, and got a Small.

This is a very elegant black V-neck top that has long sleeves and nips in at the waist for better fit under a top layer and for a better look when worn alone. Worn alone, this top does not look like thermal underwear.Today was the perfect day for this shirt to arrive for me. I had already been taken outside twice; it wasn't that cold, but the wind was brutal. Then this shirt came, and the next time I was taken outside I didn't feel the wind or the cold at all, wearing this under a medium weight jacket.This shirt fits close to your body so it's easier to layer warmer tops and/or jackets on top of it, and also so it looks very good alone. Just be sure to check the company's own size chart before you order it; don't just order your usual size. Unless you keep the heat on really high at your home, you can wear this alone inside on a cold day, then throw a jacket on top of it and be good to go. I am never given much notice when I'm about to be taken outside, and my walking commander doesn't get cold.Excellent product, a shirt you will keep and wear forever in cold weather. This is lightweight enough to wear on its own in cool to mildly cold weather, and it fits close to your body so it doesn't make you look fat if you wear it under a sweater, under a jacket, you name it. Here are the tech specs: 100% 18.5 Micron Merino Wool V-Neck, 235 G/M2, Flat Lock Seams, Tagless Construction, Interlock Knit, Regular Fit, UPF Rating 50+.Be sure to use the manufacturer's size chart, because this runs small in regular sizes. This company has been making clothes out of 100% Merino wool for years and years, and they know how to do it right. If it's really cold, you could sleep in this. This gorgeous black shirt is exceptionally well made and comfortable, and it will definitely keep you warm. If you're looking for a Merino wool shirt or excellent thermal underwear, look no further.
