HIGHLY DURABLE AND NATURALLY ELASTIC Wool fibre can bend over 20,000 times before they break, whereas cotton fibres can bend only 3,000 times. Its durability doesn’t apply just to punishing use, Wool fibres are springy and resilient, helping it keep its shape.

REGULATES TEMPERATURE Merino wool is an ‘active’ fibre that helps you stay warm in cold weather and cool in hot weather. It does this by reacting to changes in the body’s core temperature and absorbs moisture, producing heat, keeping you warm. Or if you are hot, the wool wicks the moisture away from your body keeping you cool.

NATURALLY BREATHABLE Merino wool can absorb large quantites of moisture vapour, and then move it away to evaporate into the air.

ODOUR RESISTANT - ANTIBACTERIAL/ANTIMICROBIAL The thin, waxy coating on the outer wool fibre contains fatty acids that inhibit the growth of mould, mildew and bacteria. You can wear your Merino wool garments many times before needing to wash.

RENEWABLE AND BIODEGRADABLE Wool fleece is a natural product that can be shorn, regrown and return to the earth.

MACHINE WASHABLE This garment is easy care.
