Fabric THE SECRET FORMULA After the great success of several products that incorporated merino wool into their composition, SIXS decided to expand the product range by creating a dedicated line: MERINOS WOOL. POSITIONING OF MATERIALS We wanted the comfort of the product once worn to be the same as the other products in the SIXS catalog. For this reason, we chose to place the polypropylene on the inside, in direct contact with the skin, and keep the merino wool (notoriously a bit rougher and coarser than other yarns) on the outside. Wool has thermoregulation properties that are superior to any other natural fiber, and therefore acts as a barrier against the cold. Polypropylene, on the other hand, is a hydrophobic yarn, meaning it does not absorb liquids, and allows for optimal sweat management. Finally, carbon helps with thermoregulation, improves bodily microcirculation, is bacteriostatic (fights bad odors), and is antistatic.
