Highlights & Technologies:

MERINO WOOL:
Compared to traditional wool, this wool 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 own sun protection factor, high comfort and fire resistance, merino wool is a very popular fibre.

PRIMALOFT SILVER:
An insulation with high performance, great comfort and very good skin tolerance. The padding is light as a feather, water-repellent and keeps you cosy and warm. Besides, the synthetic fibres are particularly breathable, which provides a dry and soft feeling. This type of firbre is optimally suited for universal outdoor use.
