Icebreaker pioneered the use of merino wool in the deepest New Zealand winters since 1994, and now they have fused nature and technology to create better performing merino layers for the outdoors, for performance sports, and for the city. But the merino’s fleece is built for extremes – insulating in winter, yet exceptionally soft, lightweight, durable and very easy to care for. We stock the entire New Zealand Icebreaker range online in all the new styles. Shop the entire Icebreaker Winter range here.
