We wear merino wool garments for the same reason sheep grow it....to protect us from the elements.

Each minute fibre is made from interlocking proteins called keratins - the same proteins that act as a protective outer layer on our own skin. This gives merino wool the unique ability to work like a second skin - in total harmony with our own body's protection mechanisms.

Merino wool not only stretches and moves when we do - it insulates our body, keeping us dry when we sweat, cool when we are hot, and warm when we are cold.

The natural properties of Merino provides you with health benefits and also comfort advantages over other fibres. Wool is naturally fire resistant, it breathes and insulates. Designed for comfort whilst at work or play, it is ideal for wear all year round - keeping you warm in winter, and cool and dry in summer and can be worn in all climates from the temperate zones to the steamy tropics.
