Rib knit from 100% merino wool, the Hopu Top is the layer parents come back to season after season. Warm enough for forest school and ski days, slim enough to disappear under a snowsuit, and soft enough that even sensory-sensitive kids wear it without complaint. Size up and cuff the sleeves - most children get two to three years out of a single top, and many are passed on to younger siblings still in great shape.
It breathes, regulates temperature, and resists odour naturally - so it goes weeks between washes no matter how hard it's worn.
Features
Rib knit expands with growth - designed to be sized up and cuffed
Temperature regulating - warm as a standalone, low-profile enough to layer under snowsuits and jackets
Naturally anti-odour - rarely needs washing
Sensory-friendly - soft enough for sensitive skin, zero itch
OEKO-TEX® 100 certified free from harmful chemicals
100% merino wool — chlorine free, mulesing free
Sizing note
The Hopu is designed with generous sleeves so you can size up and cuff, extending the life of each top across multiple seasons. Most parents size up one size and cuff the sleeves - the rib knit keeps the cuff neat and close to the wrist rather than bunching.
So beautiful, so well-made, so soft. This will last forever and be beautiful forever

Another Staple Piece from NUI
I'm so glad to be able to shop NUI for quality winter wardrobe pieces that are unrivaled in quality and material. This top is generous in terms of thickness and I do not underestimate its ability to last through time and all the winter adventures. Sizing is a bit small, so be sure to order at least one size up to last the season. I only wish for more colors! Blush pink, perhaps? A highly recommended winter staple.

Perfect layering for babies
Bought this for my little in two colors and it is a daily staple. Is perfect on its own for semi warm days and is a great insulation layer under jackets as the temps start to drop. Also the perfect pj top of your baby is sweaty sleeper!

Softest Merino
Our collection of Nui wool is growing quickly. It is so beautifully soft to touch and allows so much room for growth. Thank you, Nui for your quality products and we love what you stand for.

Hopu are our favorite!
We have five Hopu tops in our house and we love them all. Our toddler has 3, baby has 1, and mama even has 1. They are great because they work all year round for us. They layer really well but also look great on their own. Our baby will definitely inherit the 3 from our toddler and our toddler will probably end up inheriting mine! The silver one (size 2) has lasted two seasons already and it's wonderful because nothing has stained it yet despite what must be my toddler's best efforts.

Love our Hopu tops
We have many hopu tops from adult to babies. They our one of our favorite knits. They are very true to size but we always size up to get extra wear out of them. Great to wear with a pair of jeans to dress up or under winter gear to keep warm.

Fits 5’ 95lbs
Super cozy loungewear, but comes up short in the back for my frame when I lean over. Fits everywhere else though! Most adult sized clothes are too big for my petite/slim frame. Glad to find quality pieces, ethics, and size range with Nui.

Love love love these knits
We love these and bought them in every color when they went on sale. Our older son loves how soft they are and that they are long enough for him. And they are perfect for families who cloth diaper with wool.
