60% Merino wool and 40% Tencel®
Tencel® is a natural material with many of the same properties as merino wool. The wool blend feels soft and cool against the skin, preserves wool's ability to regulate temperature and wick moisture, while Tencel® provides increased durability and better fit.
Tencel® is extracted from cellulose from eucalyptus trees , and is one of our most environmentally friendly textile materials. We use FSC-certified Tencel ® which comes from forestry with a focus on sustainable practices. This means:
-
The trees used are replaced
- Raw material production consumes CO₂ and produces oxygen
- Takes place in areas that are not suitable for topsoil, and does not conflict with local food production
We source our merino wool from Uruguay. Merino sheep thrive best in warm, dry climates and are particularly well adapted to South America. Our merino wool is certified with the Responsible Wool Standard . This means:
- Comprehensive animal welfare requirements – no mulesing
-
Land management that safeguards nature and biodiversity
- Strict requirements for wages and working conditions
- Full traceability at all stages – from the farms all the way to us
