Why DragonWool Exists (Hybrid Advantage)

More Durable Than Traditional Wool

Odor Resistance For Multi-Day Use

Why DragonWool Exists (Hybrid Advantage)

Traditional merino is comfortable but slow to dry. Synthetics dry fast but can smell and feel clammy. DragonWool combines both—using merino next to skin for comfort and polyester on the exterior to move moisture away quickly.

The result is a layer that dries faster, stays comfortable longer, and performs across more conditions.

More Durable Than Traditional Wool

By blending merino with polyester and nylon, DragonWool improves durability and longevity compared to traditional wool garments.

It’s designed to handle repeated use on trail without the common wear issues of pure merino.

Product Care

Your Wool layer is a high performance piece of gear. It needs some extra attention to keep it performing at the highest level.

Please read through the care instructions below to ensure that you care for it properly:

Before Washing

  • Never wash your wool with anything with velcro or similar hook & loop characteristics.
  • Never wash your wool in a washing machine that has an agitator.
  • If your wool layer has a zipper, please zip it up completely to prevent it from snagging during the washing process.
  • If you cannot follow any of these prior instructions you should hand wash your product using the detergent and drying process described below.


The Wash & Dry Process

  1. Use a mild detergent like Dreft (for babies) or Nikwax (for technical gear).
  2. Choose Low Spin or Delicate wash.
  3. Choose Cold Wash & Cold Rinse (add extra rinse if possible).
  4. Hang dry until the product is completely dry.
