Wool fleece

Pure organic merino wool

Wool fleece is made from 100% organic merino wool. It provides warmth without causing sweating and can be refreshed by airing out, thus requiring infrequent washing.

Down-soft to the touch

Wool fleece is brushed on both sides for a down-like softness that feels comfortable even against bare skin.

No microplastics

Made from only natural fibres, wool fleece does not contain any microplastics. It's a great alternative to traditional synthetic fleece.

Soft and warm wool fleece

Wool fleece is an excellent alternative to traditional man-made fleece, as it is made from 100% organic merino fool and therefore contains no microplastics. Products made from wool fleece are the warmest in our collection, and are suitable for year-round use on forest trails and in the city. 

What is wool fleece?

Wool fleece is actually merino wool knit, which brushed on both sides for a downy softness. Wool fleece is non-itchy and feels comfortable even against bare skin. It's breathable, warm and stretchy, just like our other merino wool garments.

Wool fleece is suitable for year-round use: it can be worn as a mid-layer in the dead of winter and is perfect on its own when the days warm up. Wool fleece jackets have become true wardrobe staples for many, worn all year round, whether at the cottage, in town or out in nature.

Manufacturing wool fleece garments

Our wool fleece is made in Germany from organic merino wool produced in South America. Once the fleece knit arrives at our sewing factory in Artjärvi, our skilled craftsmen transform it to high-quality clothing and accessories. 

Every patch is important to us, and we make careful use of this precious material. Small pieces are used to make baby mittens, for example, and the edge strips of wool fleece knit have become a popular rag yarns.

Discover our materials

The natural fibres we use in our garments, accessories and bedding - merino wool, silk, silk wool and cotton - are all certified organic. The raw materials come from our long-term and responsible suppliers, and to be certified they must not only care for nature, but also for the well-being of their workers.

Merino wool

The mulesing-free merino wool we use comes from reliable suppliers in Argentina and Uruguay. Smooth and non-itchy merino wool is only available from certain sheep breeds and from fine sheep underwool. 

Silk wool

Our silk wool contains 70% organic merino wool and 30% natural silk. The long-fibre, extra fine quality merino wool comes from Argentina and Uruguay and the smooth silk from China. 

Silk

We are proud that we were the first to introduce clothes made out of certified organic silk to the Nordic market. The silk we use comes from an organic silk farm in Sichuan province in central China, where we have also visited.

Cotton

Cotton is cool and breathable. Thanks to its smooth texture, unbleached and undyed cotton is particularly suitable for people with allergies and other sensitivities. Cotton is highly resistant to abrasion and can be washed repeatedly, even at high temperatures. It also absorbs moisture well.
