Why Wool is Perfect for Summer | Ulvang

One of wool’s greatest strengths—something we’ve trusted and refined for nearly three decades—is its ability to regulate temperature naturally. Merino wool fibres breathe exceptionally well and help manage body heat by wicking away moisture and allowing it to evaporate. This keeps you cool and dry when temperatures rise. That’s not just theory. It’s real-world performance, proven on trails, mountain peaks, and city streets alike. At Ulvang, we’ve spent 30 years designing wool garments that perform across climates—from the Arctic winter to the height of summer. Every piece we make reflects that experience.

One of wool’s biggest advantages in warm weather? It resists odour naturally. That means you can wear it for longer without washing—ideal for multi-day trips, long commutes, or minimalist packing. Merino wool absorbs sweat and locks away the bacteria that cause smell, releasing them when washed. It’s a smart, low-maintenance solution—especially when your days are full and your bag is light.
