The Real Sweatshirt
Quality
We're rewinding history with our loopback sweatshirt made from pure merino wool. In 1930 Benjamin Russell introduced the cotton sweatshirt to replace scratchy wool sweaters in sports. The material was a fine knit on the outside and loops similar to terry cloth on the inside, which are soft on the skin and supposed to wick sweat.
Almost 100 years later, we have developed an authentic 330-gram loopback made from the finest merino wool, which can only be distinguished from a cotton sweat fabric by its exceptional function when worn. The yarn on the inside is exceptionally soft and scratch-free, and on the outside, we use more robust wool so that our shirt can accompany you on every adventure.
For the first time, you can speak of a sweatshirt because our wool is not only soft but also highly breathable, temperature-regulating and moisture-wicking. And, of course, antibacterial. So ideal for sports.
We reinforced all stressed seams with a triple-cover stitch. Finally, for best functionality, we've developed a robust 2x2 rib for the cuffs made from 100% merino wool - completely plastic-free. Its elasticity is fascinating, and it completely retracts into shape when regenerating.

Benefits of our Merino Wool
Full Transparency
We think transparency is fantastic. It gives you, as a consumer, a better understanding of the value of your purchases and the ability to decide what kind of making you want to support or impede.
So transparency should be the standard, not the exception. It also helps us as a company to understand where we still lack knowledge. So hopefully, in the end, this enables us to provide you complete transparency on every step from farm to factory, the cost of our garments and the impacts our business has on people and planet.
