ALPS OutdoorZ’s Evolution Merino Series

ALPS OutdoorZ’s Evolution Merino Wool series defeats the downsides of Merino wool apparel. An innovative series of industry-leading merino tops, the Evolution line has been in development for years to ensure that its offering meets the expectations and needs of the ALPS consumers everywhere.

The Evolution series is the culmination of two reputable brands, combining experience and technology to solve an age-old problem. In working with Woolmark• certified products, ALPS identified that using a 17.5 micron merino allowed them to target removing the notorious characteristics of itchy interaction, by using the ultra-fine fibers that deliver highly-technical comfort in soft fibers. The Evolution series feels great against your skin, while offering superior performance in athletic fit and breathability.

The Evolutions series’ 100% natural merino wool offers the highest level of moisture expulsion, thermoregulation, and odor elimination. Measured at 17.5-micron, this Merino is exceptionally soft and comfortable next to skin, while remaining resistant to burring and over-stretching. Merino isn't just designed for extremists. Anyone who needs a base layer can benefit from wearing Merino! Thus, presenting the marketplace with one of the most comfortable wool upper solutions in the industry.

The Evolution Merino 150 comes in two pieces, the 150 Short Sleeve and the 150 Long Sleeve.
