Why Merino for baselayers:
Warm In Winter, Cool In Summer:
Merino creates a micro-climate around your body, creating a layer of warmth in winter and wicking moisture away from your skin in summer. Merino fibres breathe, keeping you dry and comfortable.
Easy To Care For:
Merino is machine washable in cool water. Merino is a naturally water repellent fibre.
Stretchy:
Merino fibres can stretch over 30% and still recover to their natural shape.
Comfortable:
Soft and beautiful to touch. Merino can absorb up to 30% of its weight in moisture before it feels damp, and then when it does get wet, it stays warm. Not itchy like normal wool.
Safe:
Merino is naturally fire retardant. It is self extinguishing, meaning it will not melt or stick to your skin. It also has high UV protection, keeping you safe from the harshness of the sun.
Good Looking:
Merino fibre is longer and stronger and less likely to pill.
