Torm merino tops seem to be happy with the washing machine. I can't remember who did the Audax ecosse top.

@amir
Torm are Sportswool - so forty per cent merino - will therefore go in washing machine same as Rapha who they emulate at much lower prices. Go Torm
Audax Ecosse 100 per cent merino. Never wash them. Bill famously doesn’t need to as perfect in terms of sweat and odour. Though @Bill suggests use of filters. But that is more on the Galibier website.

@acsimpson that's the one.
@amir the Audax Eccose ones are made by Cina Coppi. 100% merino wool as @gembo says.
@chdot no washing machine at all as @gembo says. A bucket of cold water we were told after ruining a bunch of them.

I've had one or two merino things over the years, but I either found that they weren't quite as comfy and/or they were prone to getting holes. I had a really nice icebreaker T that suffered that fate! Sounds like these are better.

I have one of these. It wasn't a 'gravel' jersey when I bought it, but looks pretty similar to the one I got a couple of years back.
It is rather wonderful for long rides, and cheap as chips (relatively speaking). One nice feature (amongst many) is two rows of pockets on the back, so you can temporarily load up with Co-op purchases.
