Merino Wool


This is how Sara Carbonero did during a walk days ago in which she opted for a timeless basic that set the trend this fall and winter: the coat with a micro-check print. Specifically, she wears a design with a houndstooth finish, with a midi length and double-breasted. She's very similar to the one she made connect the dressing rooms of Princess Eleanor and Kate Middleton in October 2020.

In the presenter's case, she combines it with a striped shirt, straight-cut jeans, and rubber-toed sneakers. A super successful combination that leaves aside the bohemian image that she likes so much.




A Spanish coat for Kate Middleton


Last October at the University of Derby (England), Kate Middleton debuted a checkered coat with an oversize cut, which moves away from the fitted designs that define her and with which she marks her waist.




Born on October 31, 2005 in Madrid, Leonor de Borbón y Ortiz is the current princess of Asturias and first in the line of succession to the Spanish throne, as the first-born of King Felipe VI and his consort, Queen Letizia.

Princess Leonor shows an evolution in style by wearing a Spanish wool coat with a modern and youthful combination.


But what do these three important women have in common?


The use of coats made with merino wool, a fabric of natural origin with unique characteristics that make it the favorite not only in the world of fashion and fashion, but also in high-quality sportswear for outdoor use.


As we have already mentioned, merino fiber resists different types of environmental conditions.

In hot weather, it keeps skin cool by transporting moisture vapor from the skin, and since it is breathable the moisture vapor escapes without feeling sticky.


In cold weather, wool uses moisture absorbed from the environment to generate heat, a process called "sorption heat." Its curly fiber contains millions of air pockets that trap body heat to keep you warm.


When using a traditional wool it is very irritating to wear, since they have very thick fibers, very different from merino wool. This is very thin and does not irritate the skin.

Easy maintenance

It is less flammable than other fibers, and the safest to have next to your body.

It is self-extinguishing and unlike synthetics, it will not melt and does not adhere to the skin.

It has a filter of at least 50fps, considered the most advanced in sun protection than any other material.


Of course, we should prefer wool where the manufacturer ensures an adequate traceability process on production practices, and ensures the absence of animal cruelty.
