Icebreaker Merino
MERINO 101
The merino is one of the world's most ancient breeds of sheep. And one of the toughest.
Very different to a regular sheep who chews grass in the lowlands, our merino live in the extremes of New Zealand's Southern Alps. Regular sheep would freeze to death up there.
But the merino's fleece is built for extremes – breathable in summer, insulating in winter, yet exceptionally soft and lightweight.
We've pioneered the use of merino wool in the wilderness since 1994, and now we've fused nature and technology to create merino layers for the outdoors, for performance sports, and for the city.
DRYIcebreaker merino pulls moisture vapour to the surface of the fabric, where it evaporates before the vapour turns into sweat. It can absorb up to 30% of its own weight in moisture before you even start to feel wet, and it dries fast. (Not quite as fast as synthetics, but the world isn’t perfect...) |
LIGHTWEIGHTOur merino has an exceptionally high warmth-to-weight ratio. The fine, lightweight fibres give you all the warmth of a heavy sweater – without the bulk |
BREATHABLESynthetic fibres feel clammy because moisture vapour can escape only through holes in the fabric. But with Icebreaker merino, the fibre as well as the fabric breathes to prevent you overheating |
ODOR RESISTANTIcebreaker merino resists odour naturally, and can be worn for days — even weeks — without washing. |
