Purewolf

Fabric Story

A lightweight 100% pure wool fleece. 250gsm of 100% virgin merino wool, knit in Italy into a fluffy delirium of airy warm goodness. “Fleece” in the contemporary sense usually means a fluffy polyester imitation of a warm sheepskin. Purewolf takes things a full circle, using a traditional polyester “fleece” knit structure with the real deal source material, merino wool.

Merino of course is nature’s finest performance fiber, absorbing water vapor while repelling liquid water to create a dry microclimate around the body while retaining its insulation capabilities in wet conditions. Plus it’s naturally odor resistant and comfortable in a wide range of temperatures. You can think of this as a fluffed up sweater or a fleece gone back to it roots, either way it’s a lightweight and warm joy to wear.
