Why you should wear merino wool on your skiing vacation
Keeps you warm on the lift, when sweaty
The natural temperature-regulating properties of wool really comes in handy on skiing vacation, due to the constant shift between high and low activity.
Merino wool will keep you warm and dry when you're sitting still in the lift, just after you've run fast down the slopes and worked up a sweat.
Stay fresh for afterski
Part of the charm of being on a ski holiday is wearing the same clothes the whole week.
However, at the end of the week when the smell of sweat comes off, it is not very nice.
This is where merino wool comes in handy, as it keeps you smelling great all week and you won't need to wash.
Use it season after season
A lot of the typical ski underwear tends to scratch when used as the inner layer directly against the skin. It will also often lose its shape after one or two days of wear.
Our soft and comfortable merino wool does not scratch against the skin and keeps its shape all week.
