WHAT IS A MERINO WOOL?

Merino wool is a natural fiber grown by merino sheep. Merino wool fibers are softer, thinner, and more sensitive than many other fabrics. Merino wool maintains a stable body temperature. When it's cold outside, the natural fibers’ curves hold back air, and it warms you up. And when it's warm outside, it quickly wicks sweat and helps to keep coolness and dryness. It makes merino wool clothes a perfect option for active pastime.
