We use only the highest quality MERINO WOOL from New Zealand for our base layers. With a selective fine gauge 18.5 micron fiber, our MERINO WOOL feels extremely smooth and has great elasticity. The Montbell base layers offer the same stellar moisture management and thermal properties that traditional wool is famous for, while reaching new levels of refinement, performance, and comfort.

Specially Selected Wool Fibers
The outer layer of each individual fiber is covered in scales which help maintain warmth. Compared to other materials that reflect heat, SUPER MERINO Wool is a superior insulator.
Furthermore, the fibers that we utilize are more uniform in the number of crimps and their orientation, while maintaining great consistency in diameter. This allows for very few "stray" fibers that make traditional wool garments itchy and uncomfortable.

Natural Antibacterial Properties
Wool fabrics are naturally odor resistant due to wool’s unique characteristics.The fabric is highly breathable, easily moves perspiration away from the skin, creating a dry environment where odor causing bacteria cannot thrive.

Simple to Care For
All of Montbell’s SUPER MERINO Wool garments can be washed in the home. (Please use mild detergent, machine wash cold on the gentle cycle, and lay flat to dry.

Static Electricity Resistant
By introducing a small number of electron deductive carbon fibers into the thread we are able to produce a fabric that limits static build up during activity.
