Properties of merino wool
Merino Wool is a high-quality natural wool, sourced from Merino sheep. Merino fibers are characterized by exceptional softness, making merino wool clothing extremely comfortable and pleasant to wear.
The main advantage of merino is its excellent thermal insulation properties, thanks to which the wool cools the skin during hot weather and warms it during cold weather. This is due to the special structure of wool fibers, which collect and retain air.
Therefore, regardless of physical activity, wool not only insulates, but also regulates body temperature. It retains heat during cold weather, cools pleasantly during hot weather, at the same time it wicks away moisture, so our skin stays dry longer.
Thanks to the hygroscopic properties of merino wool, the socks effectively insulate moisture from the skin, which greatly reduces the growth of bacteria responsible for unpleasant odor.
Merino wool is distinguished by its natural softness and fluffiness, its fibers are extremely thin, resilient and durable.
Warmth of alpaca
The composition of the socks includes as much as 50% merino wool with excellent thermal insulation properties, which is further enriched with a 15% admixture of alpaca wool with excellent thermal properties.
Alpaca wool is extremely thin and hard-wearing, as comfortable as cashmere and much warmer than traditional sheep's wool.
Its unique properties provide protection against cold, wind, moisture and heat, which is why this specialized grade of wool is used for both summer and winter clothing.
