Introducing HD Wool® - Thermal Comfort - Naturally Adaptive Insulation™

What is Naturally Adaptive about HDWool?

HDWool® uses its inherent qualities to condition the surrounding atmosphere; it does this because it is naturally able to attract water vapour, rather than air.

Why is this important in Garment Insulation?

HDWool® Thermal Comfort™ absorbs water vapour and releases it into dry air. This ‘buffering’ capability helps to maintain a higher level of comfort than would otherwise be possible, over a wider range of conditions. As humidity in the gap between a garment and the wearer increases, the insulation value of the garment reduces, allowing the cold to reach the wearer more quickly. They begin to feel uncomfortable. Perhaps they’re perspiring too, which also adds to the rate of heat loss.

HDWool® Thermal Comfort™ answers the age-old dilemma of how to keep warm and comfortable whilst taking part in energetic outdoor activities. Naturally adaptive, HDWool® Thermal Comfort™ is truly a product for all seasons and all sports.
