Australian Merino Wool We use precious Australian Merino wool, which only accounts for 10% of all Merino wool.
The final process is merino wool from Bishu.Merino wool fabric is soft to the touch and has a shine that is finished using highly soft water in Bishu, Japan, one of the world's three largest wool producing areas. .
Why 53% wool and 47% polyester?
100% wool is fine, but it dries very slowly.
In the past, I have worn 100% wool as activity clothing on Mt. Soraki, but I have bitter memories of feeling cold when I changed out of my base layer for nightwear in the morning because it wasn't dry at all.
100% wool is effective at regulating temperature and humidity, making it perfect for day-trip mountain climbing in spring, fall, and winter, but if you're staying for more than one night, you may face difficult situations in the Alps, where the environment changes rapidly.
Rain can make your clothing wet, and the inside of your rainwear can get soaked.
In that case, I think it's better to use around 50% polyester as it dries quickly.
Of course, since it contains wool, it also has temperature and humidity control functions. (When it's cold it gets warmer, when it's warm it gets cooler)
