          Why Merino Wool?

          Moisture Wicking

          Minus33 Merino Wool regulates the amount of moisture on your skin by absorbing any moisture or sweat on your body. Then, the absorbed moisture evaporates out of the fabric into the atmosphere.

          Anti-Microbial

          Merino Wool fibers naturally reject any bacteria in moisture or sweat as it is wicked away, so foot fungus and smelly odor will not be a problem while wearing our products.

          Insulates When Wet

          Wool will absorb up to 30% of its weight in moisture without feeling wet or clammy. If you do get wet, wool will insulate you better than cotton or polyester materials.

          Fire Resistant

          Merino Wool insulates against high temperatures and does not readily catch fire. If it does, it self-extinguishes. When Merino burns, it doesn’t melt and stick to the skin like synthetic fabrics do.

          UV Protection

          Don’t worry about sunburn on a sunny day summiting a peak. Lightweight layers have a UPF rating of 25. Midweight and Expedition have a UPF rating of 50+.

          Renewable

          Merino Wool has a low environmental footprint and naturally returns to the elements. Shear a merino sheep in the morning, and in the afternoon they’re happily nibbling their way towards renewing next season’s clip.

          women's midweight bottoms

          The fabric is SO smooth, soft and cuddly! Color is as pictured.. bright and vibrant. sizing is generous without being too baggy. I've warn these several times so far, under stretchy but not skin-tight jeans, and under loose fitting hiking pants. I've used them indoors in a cool/cold environment, as well as in the mountains in both windy and calm conditions. The fact I can forget I'm wearing them is testament to their overall comfort, and when worn under jeans or hiking/outdoor type fabrics, or nylon wind pants, provide an amazing comfort range, whether active or sedentary. LOVE these, and thinking of buying another pair in another color as I can see myself "living" in them much of the fall/winter/early spring, especially when enjoying outdoor activities such as birding, photography, hiking, etc.

          They are so incredibly comfortable! Thank you for taking the time to leave us a great review!

          Nice and warm

          These leggings are great and warm enough as a base layer or on their own. They're comfortable and I don't need to adjust them much at all (I am 5'7" and 170 lbs). My only issue is that they started to pill in the crotch/inside thigh after one walk through the first snow of the season, so I'm concerned about their longevity for someone with thick thighs like me.

          Buying Another Pair!

          I am loving the Franconia leggings - they are so comfy & I'm already planning on buying another pair. The first time I put them on, I told my husband that I was going to be buying more. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is because I really wish they had a pocket or two for phone/keys! If they had pockets, they'd have everything...

          Glad you love them! I will pass your suggestion onto our design team.

          COMFY

          Soft,loose,stretchy, comfortable, for yoga and anything else as well!I feel like a soft,flexible cat or rabbitI feel like I have a new skin or coat of fur an animal might be lucky enough to feel.

          Not to mention our Merino Wool is produced Mulesing free without animal cruelty (unlike furs). Thanks for leaving us a review!

          Extra cozy

          For the wife. She loves them and wanted an extra pair. I am wearing mine as I write. Thanks for the cozy comfy base layer wool. Far better than polypro.

          Thank you for giving us your thoughts!
