Gloves in blend of Merino wool and Possum fur

These gloves from Merino Possum are up to 30% warmer than traditional wool products. The reason is that opossum fur fibers – in relation to other types of fur such as e.g. cashmere, wool and angora – are hollow and contain more air, giving a higher degree of insulation and a light water-repellent material. When the fur from opossum is combined with merino wool you get a warm and very soft material. At the same time, the mixture of merino wool and opossum coat means that the material does not begin to float.

Washing instructions:

Machine washable (wool wash) and should be dried lying down. Does not tolerate drying. As an alternative, Merino Possum products can instead be aired outside – preferably in frost temperatures – then the coat in the material comes out beautifully.
