OUR NEW MERINO BLEND
We’ve been developing our own Finisterre blend of Merino since 2009; working closely with our suppliers, trying things out, product testing and listening to your feedback to make the softest, most comfortable base layers.
Over the last decade we’ve gone from a starting point of 100% Merino wool, and added polyamide to combat Merino’s natural tendency to lose shape and ladder. This blend worked well for us, but we wanted to evolve our Merino further and develop something using only natural fibres. Blending Merino with Tencel®, a soft and breathable fibre made from FSC certified eucalyptus wood pulp, we have created a performance fabric with all the benefits of Merino wool without the use of manmade fibres. Created from a fully sustainable and traceable supply chain, the blend is 100% natural, renewable and biodegradable, and won’t pollute the marine environment.

Bought this for my bike mad husband. He's been very complimentary about the quality and comfort of this base layer. A great gift.

Didn't want to take it off, but eventually it had to go into the wash.
I bought this for my son who is totally delighted with the fit (XL)and feel of the merino wool base layer .
Perfect for his skiing trip in January.

For once, online advertising algorithms worked in my favour. After looking around for clothing that could replace some of the items in my wardrobe that were made from artificial fibres that would not bio-degrade, the hardest one to replace were my Heattech tops. However, this merino wool/Tencel blend is perfect for that role, and is already serving me well. Looking forward to other colours coming back into stock so that I can order more!
