Merino wool neutralizes unpleasant odors by absorbing odour molecules into its fibers, making them less detectable by the human nose.
Merino fibers efficiently manage moisture, absorbing it from your skin and releasing it into the atmosphere. It can absorb up to 35% of its weight in water without feeling wet.
icebreaker merino wool garments undergo special anti-shrinkage treatment, helping to resist deformation and pilling.
The thermo-regulation properties of merino wool adapt to your body and external conditions, so you can stay warm in the cold and cool in the heat.

"Im sensitive to wool and have never been able to wear it. Even soft at purchase turn into unwearable itch when washed but not icebreaker. Its fantastic! It stayed soft through several washes and I wear them daily and enjoy warmth plus softness. Thank you!"

"This is my second pair of this particular long underwear and I love them. I usually find wool, even other brands of merino wool, itchy but not this brand, especially the 260 version. They are very warm as well."
