Why Choose Possum Merino?

New Zealand Possum Merino is one of the world's most innovative natural fibre blends. Combining premium New Zealand possum fibre with fine Merino Wool creates knitwear that is remarkably lightweight, exceptionally soft and wonderfully warm. The naturally hollow possum fibres trap body heat without adding bulk, while Merino Wool helps regulate temperature and wick away moisture for lasting everyday comfort. The addition of nylon improves durability, provides gentle stretch and helps each garment retain its shape.

Even lightweight Possum Merino garments provide exceptional warmth, making them ideal for layering throughout the cooler months.

Care Instructions

Hand wash gently in cool water using a wool detergent. Reshape while damp and dry flat away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not tumble dry or bleach.

Our Favourite Thing About This Vest
