        MERINO WOOL

        Micro Details

Merino’s moisture-wicking properties keep you cool when you’re on the move. Core Spun yarn provides extra durability while still offering merino's super soft, insulative, and moisture wicking properties next to the skin. Nylon inner core offers strength, elasticity, resiliency, and durability. Merino Wool outer sheath provides insulation, moisture wicking, and UV protection.

        Why Merino Wool?

        Core Spun Technology

        Core Spun yarn provides extra durability while still offering merino's properties next to the skin. The nylon inner core is wrapped with Merino Wool and a touch of spandex for stretch.

        Moisture Wicking

        Minus33 Merino Wool regulates the amount of moisture on your skin by absorbing any moisture or sweat on your body. Then, the absorbed moisture evaporates out of the fabric into the atmosphere.

        Anti-Microbial

        Merino Wool fibers naturally reject any bacteria in moisture or sweat as it is wicked away, so foot fungus and smelly odor will not be a problem while wearing our products.

        Insulates When Wet

        Wool will absorb up to 30% of its weight in moisture without feeling wet or clammy. If you do get wet, wool will insulate you better than cotton or polyester materials.

        UV Protection

        Don’t worry about sunburn on a sunny day summiting a peak. Lightweight layers have a UPF rating of 25. Midweight and Expedition have a UPF rating of 50+.

        Renewable

        Merino Wool has a low environmental footprint and naturally returns to the elements. Shear a merino sheep in the morning, and in the afternoon they’re happily nibbling their way towards renewing next season’s clip. 

        TOTAL EASY CARE

        Like the shirt, hate the collar.

        I bought two, the hoodie and the regular 3/4 zip. Good fit and function, but I really hate the collar. The zipper comes up too high and there're really no practical way to leave it partially unzipped. It stands up and waves like a flag if it's not zipped. I may look into things like velcro stays or even shortening the zipper to make it more comfortable.

        Hi Sam! Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We're glad to hear that you like the fit and function of our Micro Weight - Men's Wool 1/4 Zip Woolverino. We understand your concerns about the collar and we appreciate your feedback. We'll definitely take it into consideration for future designs. In the meantime, some customers have found success using velcro stays to keep the collar down or shortening the zipper for a more comfortable fit. We hope this helps! Thank you for choosing our product.
        Have a good day

        Best Choice for Warm Body Person

        For those who sleep with minimal covers and don't need the heaviest coat, this is the choice. I purchased these for 2 of my "warm body" adult sons, and they are perfect for base layer. Wool, but comfortable and not over heating them

        Kathryn,

        Mixed feelings review

        I love my Woolverino not only for hiking but casual wear but you have to treat them gently. The underside of my forearms on both sleeves wore right through in a year. This time I’m not going to put them in the dryer and see if that makes a difference.Minus33 has great merino, but merino must be treated gently. It’s well worth the extra attention.

        Mark,

        Thank you for taking the time to leave us your honest review. We greatly appreciate your feedback. We design our products to be able to be machine washed and dried using the Total Easy Care process. However, we do have specific care instructions on how todo so on our website. This will ensure that your merino wool garments will last as long as possible.

        Please let us know if you have any questions.

        Best,
