Merino wool - comfort and functionality for varying conditions

Merino wool suits all outdoor enthusiasts and professionals - year round. Merino wool tee shirts will serve you during summer days and thick Merino wool base clothes are worn in regular outdoor use as well as in polar expedition use.

All Merino wool products sold by Scandinavian Outdoor are made of wool from mulesing free farms.

Even if other wool products itch your skin, Merino wool is likely to be very comfortable for you. The reason is in the structure of Merino wool: its fibers are very fine and they nearly lack the "scales" that are very pronounced in regular wool.

Merino wool is highly comfortable even in use where you regularly stop and have a rest - while synthetic fibers tend to feel chilly the moment you stop, Merino wool evens out the varying temperatures. Merino wool doesn't need washing as often as synthetic materials do. Most of the time you'll be fine by just airing the Merino product well.

The Merino wool products sold in Scandinavian Outdoor are machine washable. Remember to adhere to the washing instructions of each piece of apparel and use wool detergent. This detergent gets rid of extra oil and dirt while retaining the original oil of all wool products.
