Merino wool has many excellent properties. It is temperature-regulating. That is, the wool keeps our bodies warm in cold weather, and releases heat in warm weather, keeping our skin cool.

At the same time, wool, like silk, can carry moisture away from the skin, and can absorb 30% of its weight without feeling wet. Wool is also dirt-repellent and requires minimal care.
