TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
Sizing and fit
These tights have a close fit to help the transfer of moisture to the outside of the fabric.
4% elastane added for comfort and freedom of movement.
How did we increase the durability of these merino wool tights?
Use of a BETA-SPUN yarn structure in which the polyamide threads coat the Merino wool fibres and protect them from rubbing and cuts without affecting their properties.
Tip before use
For a softer feel, wash your tights before first use.

TESTS AND WARRANTY
Test product
In November 2018, 8 trekkers (4 men and 4 women) and part of the Forclaz design team, tested these tights for 4 days in the southern French Alps (Lus La Croix Haute). You can expect wind, rain, a bit of snow, a bivouac... and a lot of fun! We were then able to make the final modifications and validate it for mountain trekking use.
