Kids Merino Thermals

For skiing holidays, Kids Merino Thermals are probably the most popular type of Kids Skiing Thermals.  We often get asked "is merino wool warmer than regular wool?" or "are merino thermals better for skiing?".

Merino sheep are known for producing exceptionally fine and soft wool fibres. This fineness makes Merino wool softer against the skin, reducing the itchiness often associated with regular wool.  The finer fibres create more tiny air pockets that trap heat efficiently, providing excellent insulation. Merino wool is known for its superior warmth-to-weight ratio, which means it keeps you warm without being bulky.

Moisture-Wicking and Breathability:

Excellent at wicking moisture away from the skin, keeping you dry and comfortable. This is crucial for skiing, where sweating is common, and wet fabric can lead to a rapid loss of body heat.

Odour Resistance:
Naturally antimicrobial, which means it resists odours even after prolonged use. This is a big plus for multi-day skiing trips.

Comfort for Active Use:
Because it is soft, lightweight, and breathable, it's much more comfortable for active use like skiing. It allows for freedom of movement and works well in a layering system.



Merino wool is typically better than regular wool for skiing due to its superior warmth, comfort, moisture management, and odor resistance. It's a preferred choice for base layers and mid-layers in skiing gear.
