You might perceive it as a warming material,
but Merino wool is perfect for summer, too.
Merino is an active fibre, able to react to the temperature changes in your body. When you are cold, it warms you; when you sweat — it cools you down, preventing overheating.
Merino is a natural sun protector, high in UPF factor
Merino can absorb moisture up to 30% of its own weight. As you start sweating, it transfers the excess moisture away from your body, keeping you cooled and dry.
Thanks to the fast drying and antibacterial properties, Merino fabric stays odorless for a long time. That means less washing, longer lifespan.
It is soft, hypoallergenic and itch-free.
