Thermowave merino wool is incredibly lightweight, soft, not itchy, won't make you feel sweaty, keeps you warm when it's cold, and cool when it's hot. Plus, it has an amazing ability to fend off unpleasant odors.

It might sound surprising, but merino wool is actually one of the most comfortable fabrics to wear in the summer. Wondering why? Well, the remarkably fine and lightweight fibers of merino wool have the ability to pull moisture away from your skin and let it evaporate into the air. This unique quality helps to keep you cool and comfortable even in hot weather.

All of our wool comes from Australia and New Zealand. A typical Thermowave Merino station covers about 1 hectare and supports about 5000 to 15 000 Merino sheep. All of our growers are mandated to abide a strict requirement that all wool in our products must be non-mulesed.

When it comes to thermal base layers, it is essential that they are fitted rather than loose. This ensures optimal effectiveness, as a fitted base layer prevents cold air from finding its way through any gaps between the fabric and your skin.
