Highlights & Technologies:

MERINO WOOL:
Compared to traditional wool, Merino offers a particularly fine fibre. Because of the extreme weather conditions merino sheep are exposed to in nature, the wool has strong thermoregulation properties and is capable of wicking moisture away from the body particularly fast. Thus, it creates a warm protective layer for the entire body, even when wet. In contrast to traditional wool, merino wool is not scratchy even when wet. Thus, merino is perfect as a next-to-skin layer. Yet, merino wool is also ideal for warm summer days since its high breathability has a cooling effect. Thanks to its sun protection factor, high comfort, odour-inhibiting properties and fire resistance, merino wool is a very popular fibre.

RESISTEX BIOCERAMIC:
This fibre reflects body heat so that you don't cool down so quickly during rest phases. Its texture offers optimised protection against UV-A and UV-B radiation. The fibre retains its functionality even after long use and numerous washes.
