MERINO WOOL FLEECE

What can we say about our American made Merino Wool fleece line, Powder, other than it’s a bonafide must have for anyone who loves and understands the value of a quality Merino Wool layer. Designed with a brushed-soft Merino Wool profile that is simply unbeatable for those who require lofty and plush warmth (one review called wearing Powder, “like stepping into a cloud”), Powder is without any competitor, topping the charts year-after-year as our undisputed all-time bestseller. You simply have to feel it for yourself to see what we mean, as there’s nothing better than an ultra-warm fleece you can rely on just as much in the absolute coldest wintertime conditions as you can by a backpacking campfire or a simple fall night hanging on the couch at the house. Three hundred grams per square meter Powder is available in Merino Wool fleece hoodies, cowl necks, quarter zips, sweat pants and beanies. 

HOW TO LAYER MERINO

Powder is worn like you would any fleece sweatshirt material, layered over lighter and thinner Merino Wool base layer and insulation material for a durable, warm and lightweight insulation function. But don’t be surprised if you find yourself wearing this Merino Wool fleece direct-to-skin, due to that ultra-soft brushed inner material that gives Powder its namesake.
