You can buy merino anywhere, but not ours.
Whether as an ultra-light summer T-shirt (125 g/m²) or a durable all-rounder (145 g/m²): our Nuyarn® Merino T-shirts combine natural performance with innovative spinning technology. Unlike conventional merino wool, Nuyarn is lighter, stronger, more breathable, and dries up to 5x faster. The result: more comfort, fewer compromises. Our Merino shirts adapt flexibly to hot days and demanding adventures.
The fine merino fibers reliably absorb moisture, gently wick it away from the skin, and ensure a dry, comfortable feel. At the same time, merino prevents odor buildup, keeping you feeling fresh even after hours of activity.
Merino wool works like a personal climate regulator: it keeps you warm in the cold and cools you down in the heat. This way, you’ll always feel comfortable, even on unpredictable late-summer days.
Our new Merino base layers are crafted in Portugal using state-of-the-art 3D spinning technology. This innovative process allows for seamless integration of zones with different properties: more durable areas for enhanced resilience, and ultralight, highly breathable sections for optimal comfort and temperature regulation. The result is a base layer that is simultaneously durable, functional, and exceptionally comfortable to wear. Available from October 2025.

Whether hiking, cycling, doing early morning workouts, or enjoying a relaxed café stop, merino is a true all-rounder. It stays largely wrinkle-free, dries quickly, and retains its shape—even after travel or washing.
Ideal for everyday life, adventures, and everything in between.
