A wool fibre is basically transparent, but the masses of fibres gives colour – just like snow crystals. The fibre is a «carrier» of air-pockets which gives a thermo effect for the skin; in warm temperatures it gives a buffer so that the garment – and thereafter the skin – does not get heated. Simultaneously, moisture such as sweat or damp, will be collected in the air pockets and transferred through the fibre and out into the air. The fibre can collect about 40% moisture, which is very important when children get wet and the temperature outside is low. At low temperatures the air pockets protect the body’s natural warm temperature and will also protect you against the external cold.
