French Terry Merino Shorts

Cut from a super soft and lightweight French terry fabric, these relaxed shorts are made of merino wool. The inherent properties of the fibre make it ideal for active wear – soft, airy and naturally elastic. The fibres can absorb moisture and draws vapour away from the skin, protecting it from getting sticky. The material also reacts to body temperature; it stores warmth when the body is cold and has a cooling effect when warm. Merino is naturally odour resistant and the slightly waxy fibre surface makes the wool water-repellent.

• Elastics and hidden drawstring at waist
• Welt pockets at side seams, one welt pocket at back
• Wool from non-mulesed sheep
