Review by Erin Trail

The Woolx Chessy Tank Top is a lightweight Merino Wool Tank Top that has become one of my favorite items to wear this summer.

Fit and Function

The Woolx Chessy Tank Top is the perfect summer weight Merino wool sweater.

I am a size medium on the Woolx size guide and I found that the Chessy Tank Top fits true to size.  The neckline hits me across the collarbone, giving nice coverage without feeling restrictive.  The armholes are also perfectly sized with no restriction or gapping.  You can wear it as a stand alone top and not worry about undergarments showing.

I normally don’t remark on color, but the Moroccan Blue color I received for testing is STUNNING. It has rich jewel tone that easily coordinates with a wide variety of items.

The contrasting knit cuff at the neckline and arms offer a refined feel to the Woolx Chessy Tank Top.  It absolutely works as a summer sweater option for office wear, either on its own or as a layer.

The weight of the Woolx Chessy Tank Top is also great.  While described as midweight, it feels pretty light (although not as light as their polo shirts).  The fabric wears well and easily packs and stores without wrinkling.

The 100% Australian Merino wool is also super soft.  It hasn’t felt itchy and often, I forget that I’m wearing a wool sweater because of how light and soft it fees.

I also appreciate how this tank top is versatile and easy to style.  Thanks to it’s fabric weight, you can tuck in into high waisted pants and not have the fabric bulk or bunch up.  It also drapes and falls into place when untucked.  You can literally wear Woolx Chessy Tank Top with almost anything and it will look fantastic.

Erin is an adult-onset athlete who started as a Masters Swimmer and then developed into a triathlete.  She has completed 5 Ironman races and nearly 20 x 70.3 distance Ironman races, including the World Championship in Lahti, Finland, in 2023.  In 2025, she raced for Team USA in Pontevedra, Spain for the World Triathlon Cross Tri World Championship. She placed 9th in her age group and was the 1st American woman in her age group.
Somewhere along her triathlon journey, she picked up deep love of cycling. Cycling encouraged her to see landscapes in a new way, learn new skills and to develop self reliance; now she often goes and does Type 2 rides just to see if she can do it.  She’s got all the bikes: gravel, mountain, fat bike, time trial and road.
She is even known to combine her love of camping and cycling and go off on solo 24 hour overnight bikepacking trips in the mountains of Colorado. In addition to bikes, she teaches yoga, lifts weights, skis, SUPs and has recently purchased a campervan.

Erin is a former Montana park ranger with a degree in environmental engineering.  She loves getting into technical details while putting her gear (and herself) through the paces. She shares her home in Colorado with her husband, Will, and her 3 cats (Zipper, Brewtus, and Simcoe).
Fall and winter 2025 will bring Erin to the “Adventure Side”, with many camping, vanlife, bikepacking, and mountain bike rides. Once the snow flies, she can be find resort skiing, fat biking, and triathlon training (inside and outside).
In 2026 Erin took the National Championship in her Age Group for the USA Triathlon Cross Tri. She’s also racing the a National Championship Road Sprint and Olympic Distance race in Milwaukee and a few other off road triathlons and bike races.  In 2027, she will represent Team USA at the World Championship Cross Triathlon in Edmonton, Canada. She’ll also save lots of room for adventure time with her friends and husband.
When not adventuring, she can be found on a sunny patio somewhere, drinking beers with her husband.
