As you know my family lives after the motto: no bad weather, only bad clothing. Thank God for the sheep that gives us wool but not just any sheep, it has to be Merino sheep.
Merino sheep produce the best wool in the world. The long merino wool fibers are super soft, and you can have it right next to your skin.
So why is merino wool better than other fabric? It regulates heat and keeps insulating when it is wet. Merino wool wicks moisture (sweat) away from your body, so you don’t get wet and cold. And it doesn’t get smelly like synthetic thermal underwear. Read more about the important inner layer
Here are some of our wool favorites
One thing we have found is it can be sometimes difficult finding children’s merino wool clothing in local stores. We love pink Icebreaker longs and tops for our little outdoorsy princesses and cool socks from smartwool. –If you need anything wool, you need a pair of wool socks.
Playoutdoors sells Icebreaker and smartwool socks
I also love the Nordic Wollens collection of wool clothing from Finland and Germany. No fuss and with a big collection of wool clothing for children and adults.
Sells items in wool for baby from 0-2. Wool clothing is from Norway and Germany. We love the playsuit in Janus’s krinkelwool
