Wool Jersey

Surly wool clothes are made from Merino, a very fine, soft, itch-free wool which feels much like cashmere next to the skin. Like all wool, it has wicking characteristics superior to any synthetic.

 

This means it keeps moisture off your skin and insulates to help you maintain a comfortable operating temperature even when the material itself is pretty well soaked (cotton, for example, simply gets wet and makes you feel clammy, so your body uses valuable energy trying to keep you warm).

Wool is warm in cool and cold weather (it’s the perfect base layer), and yet remains surprisingly comfy when the weather is warm. And because wool fibers can actually absorb moisture, rather than simply pulling it away from your skin, the bacteria that cause synthetics to stink don’t build up. In fact, you don’t want to wash our wool jerseys and socks every time you wear them. But when it is time to wash them, you can toss them in the machine on the gentle cycle (cold water!) and then air dry them.
