What makes Merino wool and Possum fur mix so special?

Wool is one of nature’s best insulators. But thanks to Merino’s incredibly fine diameter, clothing is softer, lighter and more breathable than other wool, as well as drying faster and itch free! One of the merino wool’s best qualities is its ability to absorb large quantities of moisture vapour, and then move it away to evaporate into the air. This makes garments naturally breathable and wondrous to wear. 

Meanwhile, Possum fur is one of the warmest natural fibres, second only to the fur of Polar bears and Arctic foxes. Possum fur has a texture that causes neighbouring fibres to cling to one another, minimising heat loss, and a hollow core that traps air in the shaft of the fibre, similar to double glazing or a thermos. 

There are an estimated 35 million possums in Aotearoa; it’s a species that is one of the greatest threats to our natural ecosystem. So while merino sheep have a classic outdoor lifestyle, possums are truly wild, never farmed, and so every strand takes that extra bit of effort to come by. 
The result of combining these two exceptional fibres is probably the warmest, driest, softest garments that you will ever put on. Don’t miss out on getting yours!

Goes nicely with my beanie

Since I already own this type of glove, just with the half fingers, I knew that this is a really nice opportunity to get the type with the full fingers. Warm, not too thick, perfect for the typical Auckland winters and a bike ride...

Frosty morning lifesaver

Soft, breathable, great colour and easily tucked away when not in use. They are touchpad compliant, allowing delicate use of touchpad devices, such as smartphones, when worn correctly. For size, I went with M, taking the cuff into consideration on the size guide provided. I've worn mine for one winter, without need for laundering, due to the wool rich content, which has retained its full lustre.
