AYAQ Merino wool offers unprecedented fineness for outdoor clothing: just 17 microns in diameter, four times finer than a human hair, for exceptional technical performance, softness and warmth.
-
THERMOREGULATION THAT KEEPS PACE WITH YOUR EFFORT
Our merino wool is engineered for optimal breathability and warmth even when damp. For athletes, this means a stable micro-climate from the trailhead to the summit, fewer chills during breaks, and consistent comfort on both ascents and descents.
-
EXCEPTIONAL ITALIAN YARN
The wool comes from five family farms where sheep are raised outdoors.
100% of the processing—combing, carding, spinning and dyeing—takes place in Italy, in a specialist workshop with a deep commitment to environmental responsibility.
The wool is RWS-certified, ensuring animal welfare.
-
ULTRA SOFT AND NATURALLY ODOUR-RESISTANT
The keratin in the ultra-fine wool fibres helps limit odours, so T-shirts can be worn for several days. Their ultra-soft feel reduces friction and irritation under a backpack or harness—ideal for long outings and multi-day adventures.

EASY CARE
How to care for your Merino wool gear?
- Between uses: simply air out for a few hours; our Merino naturally limits odors and requires less frequent washing.
- Machine wash cold or up to 30°C, using a pH-neutral wool detergent without fabric softener.
- Dry flat in the shade.
- Ironing: possible at low temperature on the reverse side. Steam ironing is allowed.
- Storage: premium wool attracts moths; store with cedar blocks or moth-repellent sachets.
