No. The listing gives the composition as 80% wool (merino) and 20% polyamide.

It is the listed fabric weight. It does not by itself establish a particular warmth rating, so layer choice should suit your activity and conditions.
How should the shirt be washed?
The listing says not to exceed 30°C (86°F), to wash with similar colours using wool detergent, and not to bleach, dry clean or use fabric softener.
Does this version have a zip and thumb holes?
The description says a zip version is available and attributes a stand-up collar and thumb holes to that design. It does not confirm which version is selected, so check the variant.
