MERINO SHIELD LIGHT

The MERINO SHIELD LIGHT material is made of 91% polyamide, which makes it extremely durable. This is proven by the fact that it can withstand more than 100,000 abrasion cycles in the Martindale test, which measures the material's resistance to abrasion. This means that it is one of the most durable materials used by ORTOVOX. The MERINO SHIELD LIGHT material is therefore particularly suitable for sharp rocks and adventure expeditions that require consistent protection and comfort.

The highest quality Merino wool

ORTOVOX uses only the highest quality Merino wool from Tasmania. Merino wool is a material that degrades only negligibly over time and retains its functional properties for many years.

Properties of Merino wool:

• It can naturally regulate moisture - it absorbs moisture into its internal structure and remains dry on the surface.
• It can naturally regulate body temperature - it has a large thermoregulatory range.
• It is 100% environmentally friendly and ecologically sustainable.
• It has antibacterial properties, thanks to which it can neutralize odors.
• It is soft, does not scratch and is comfortable to wear.
• It is easy to maintain and has a long service life.

ORTOVOX has demanding criteria for sheep breeding itself, which significantly affects the quality of its wool. In order to fulfill this, ORTOVOX only buys wool from a few selected farms that are subject to regular inspections and that meet the strict standards of the ORTOVOX WOOL PROMISE (OWP).

• ORTOVOX obtains new merino wool from certified sheep farms that adhere to ethical principles of animal treatment.
• Only wool from Tasmanian sheep meets the demanding requirements of the ORTOVOX brand.

These farms are regularly monitored as part of the OWP. The wool itself is 100% ecological and therefore extremely environmentally sustainable. Merino wool provides perfect comfort and a feeling of softness thanks to the thin fibers that make up fine woolen yarns. In addition, this wool perfectly regulates temperature and wicks away sweat, so you will feel comfortable in any conditions. In addition, Merino wool neutralizes odors thanks to its antibacterial effects, and it is very easy to care for.
