Merino wool is one of the most appreciated fabrics for quality and characteristics. It is obtained mainly from Merino sheep originating from New Zealand. This breed of sheep is found in many corners of the world, but Merino wool is obtained exclusively from sheep native to this country. The difference between these merino sheep and those of the rest of the world is their skin, which is thicker to protect them from extreme climatic conditions. Thanks to the fineness of the fiber, Merino wool is much more pleasant on the skin. Sometimes, the large fiber diameter of regular wool irritates dead skin cells, while Merino wool creates the opposite effect. That's why Merino wool is much less irritating. Wearing Merino wool sportswear guarantees outdoor sports enthusiasts a comfortable and soft sensation on the skin, but also warmth and lightness, fundamental characteristics for those who are constantly on the move.
