What is Merino?
Merino is the fleece (wool) of the Merino breed of sheep. Therefore, Merino is a natural, renewable and unique product that is grown in the high country of New Zealand's pristine South Island, an environment that is perfect for producing New Zealand Merino wool of world-renowned quality.
It has been around for centuries…it's Merino - nature's wonder fibre.

What makes it so special?
Merino provides the ultimate microclimate, creating a buffer against changing conditions and maintaining comfort through natural 'air conditioning.'
Merino's natural ability to absorb moisture, without feeling damp, contributes to Merino's excellent comfort performance as an apparel fibre…up to 30% of its weight without feeling damp.

What are its attributes?
It's hard not to touch Merino again and again; the garments are so soft against the skin. The prickle and itch associated with traditional wool is caused by coarse fibres that irritate the skin, which does not occur with Merino - the ultra fine fibres simply bend, avoiding irritation and making Merino the ideal material to look after newborn skin.
Safe and practical…. Merino is naturally flame retardant, resists odour build up, and reduces the laundry workload.

What type of garments is it best for?
The comfort enhancing and temperature regulation properties of the 100% Pure New Zealand Merino and 100% Pure cotton used in Lola & Ben® products make them ideal infant and toddler accessories and clothing.
Merino is rapidly becoming the fabric/fibre of choice across the spectrum from high end designer fashion to work clothing to outdoor enthusiasts climbing mountains, and obviously is the fabric discerning parents choose to keep their baby's comfortable.

Are there any alternatives?
There are a myriad of fabrics available today…however only one was designed by nature to protect the human body from the environment, yet at the same time, be in harmony with it.
It has been around for centuries…it's Merino - nature's wonder fibre.
