Technical information

Sizing and fit

These tights have a close fit to help the transfer of moisture to the outside of the fabric.
4% elastane added for comfort and freedom of movement.

What is our commitment to animal welfare?

We only use wool from Merino sheep bred on farms in South Africa that do not practice mulesing.
We decided to build a partnership with a group of breeders (Konsortium Merino) to guarantee respect for animal welfare and the environment.
We have full traceability which allows us to guarantee the origin of the wool.

How have we reinforced the durability of these Merino wool tights?

Use of a BETA-SPUN yarn structure in which the polyamide threads coat the Merino wool fibres and protect them from rubbing and cuts without affecting their properties.

Odour control

Wool from Merino sheep naturally controls the spread of bacteria that cause bad odours. These Merino wool tights can therefore be worn
several days in a row and means you can take less clothes when trekking making for a lighter backpack!

Tip before use

For a softer feel, wash your tights before first use.

How do I wash my Merino wool tights?

We recommend that you machine wash your Merino wool tights at 30° on a normal cycle, preferably with liquid detergent.

Dry flat and NEVER tumble dry unless you want it to shrink by one or two sizes!

TESTS

In November 2018, 8 trekkers (4 men and 4 women) and part of the Forclaz design team, tested these tights for 4 days in the southern French Alps (Lus La Croix Haute). On the agenda, wind, rain, a bit of snow, a bivouac... and a lot of fun! We were then able to make the final modifications and validate it for use for mountain trekking.
