retailer These base layers are soft, warm and a wonderful environmental choice. They are thin but durable and have a beautiful feel to the fabric with a blend of 67% Tencel 29% Merino Wool and 4% Spandex.
Handmade with love in my home studio on a Vancouver Island.
Properties of merino wool (and Tencel below!) include:
Durability
Wool wears well in properly constructed socks,and a wool fibre can be bent 20,000 times without breaking.
Insulation
Wool is a natural insulator, and will help keep you warm in winter, and cool in the summer.
Drying
Wool can absorb a significant amount of moisture, but since it's the interior of the fiber where the moisture resides, the fabric feels dry, even when wet. wool will eventually get over-saturated, but it'll take a lot longer than either cotton or synthetic fabrics, which quite often feel like you're wearing a wet garbage bag.
Soft
Wool is ridiculously soft. This will depend on the specific fibers used (you'll read about microns sooner or later; anything under 20 will be luxurious), but it'll be as soft as the softest brand-new cotton you've ever felt.
Breathable
Wool is breathable,it has a large capacity to absorb moisture vapour and sweat next to the skin making it extremely breathable.
Odor
Wool is naturally odor-resistant. Because most body odor is actually caused by bacterial waste products, the naturally anti-bacterial products prevent this odor from building in the first place.
