The perfect upgrade to your cold weather wardrobe is the new Lars Monsen Femunden Polo. Constructed from 100% merino wool, the turtleneck has rib knitted sides for better fit. It has a pocket on the left side and straps for compass and other equipment.
Designed for use in the outdoors the Polo features an extra-long zipper for easy ventilation, with a protective flap to keep the cold metal from the skin. The turtleneck has thumb holes to protect the fingers, and external loops which make it easier to hang the clothes up for drying.

Wool from sheep has kept people warm and dry for more than 5000 years. Aclima’s Merino wool is hand selected by experts in to deliver the ultimate in comfort and performance. A sustainable, renewable fibre, helping both man and sheep to acclimate and effortlessly adjust to changes in the environment. Aclima give away the left-over fabric to for example a company who produces punching balls for boxing. The dye-works they use have closed systems to reduce emission of wastewater, and in addition they work with ISO 14001 (environmental management system). Aclima’s fabrics are dyed to the latest season’s colours and use only dye recipes approved to Oeko-Tex standards.
Wool is a natural “high-tec” fibre and possesses a number of advantages, such as its ability to uptake and release moisture vapour up to 36% of its dry weight, while being water-repellent at the same time. Wool is a renewable resource, as you wait till the wool has grown back and then cut it again. It is also biodegradable because the hair is made up of proteins, which are yummy treats for insects and microbes.
