Ibex Women’s Merino Wool Aire Lightweight Hoodie, Black, Large
Why name a merino wool performance apparel company after a goat?
To us, it makes complete sense. While sheep are known to traverse mountains, the Ibex Goat is more agile. Active? If you call a goat that can climb sheer rock faces active, then yes. Whatever the weather or occasion, Ibex has you covered.
Just as the Ibex goat migrates according to seasons, Ibex activewear was born for the modern migration from highrise to mountaintop – and everywhere in between. The range is equally suited to mountaineering, corporate orienteering, or your favorite restaurant. Part activewear, part urban performance wear, each garment features fine tailoring paired with the benefits of nature’s original performance fiber – merino wool. Co-founded by an avid mountain climber, yet equipped for urban adventure, Ibex withstands the demands of today.
PERFORMANCE WEAR FOR EVERYWHERE
NATURE’S FIBER IS SUPER THERMOREGULATING
Designed in nature to keep sheep warm in temperatures as low as -4F and cool in temperatures up to 95F, merino is an active fiber that reacts to changes in body temperature. The natural crimp in wool adds durability and elasticity, while moisture wicking and ‘heat of sorption’ qualities work to thermoregulate the body so in winter you’ll be warm, and in summer you’ll stay cool.
MERINO WON’T SWEAT IT.
Don’t let moisture get between you and comfort. Ibex merino defies clammy, damp and sweaty with its naturally breathable fiber. While synthetic fabrics can wick away sweat, Merino keeps the body cool during exercise by trapping moisture and releasing it as vapor before it even turns to sweat. It’s science. And the answer for sweat-free train trips, and commuting (running) from meeting to meeting. Cycle to work? Go from bike to desk, no sweat.
WOOLLY, MINUS THE MAMMOTH ODOR.
Wool’s natural ability to manage moisture means odor-causing bacteria are stopped in their tracks. Wear it during intense activity, and over extended periods of time, and never be on the nose. And you’ll get more than one wear from your shirt. Light merino is the perfect choice for seasoned (but not overly spicy) travelers, and those on the go, riding to work, exploring a big city on foot or travelling with limited luggage.
