EXTRAFINE MERINO WOOL
Our most beloved and versatile wool, ideal for everyday use. The fibers of this Merino wool measure 19.5 microns thick and undergo the combing process, giving the material a silky texture.
Being thinner than regular wool, Merino wool is softer and more comfortable. Its fibers create a lightweight, breathable, and highly flexible knit.
This wool is worsted: the longest and thinnest fibers are selected and made parallel to each other during the combing process, becoming homogeneous. This creates a ribbon called "top," which is then twisted to obtain a strong, smooth, and compact yarn.
Discover the properties
A resistant material
Its natural elasticity ensures that pieces made from Extrafine Merino Wool retain their shape, resisting sagging and wrinkling.
With natural thermoregulatory properties
Merino Wool has natural moisture-wicking properties, which help regulate body temperature by wicking moisture away from the skin.
