FACT Icebreaker® Merino Wool Wonder what the staff favorites are? Merino wool from companies such as Icebreaker® is one item that comes to mind. Merino wool feels great on in all seasons and is easy to clean, with the simple instructions on the garment hang tags. Pack Rat carries several base layer styles, gloves and tops from Icebreaker®. Some of the characteristics of merino wool are high breathability, soft texture and good insulation; in contrast, traditional wool tends to be heavy and prickly. Icebreaker® garments, unlike other brands, have a “Baacode” located on each piece that will allow you to trace back the origins of the wool and its growers. Also Icebreaker® has strict guidelines for its growers to follow to make sure that the herds and sheepdogs are properly cared for in the New Zealand mountains.
