New Zealand Superfine Merino
Over the past ten years this Superfine Merino fabric has been responsible for totally redefining New Zealand’s woollen garment industry. Using state of the art spinning technology from Korea this 18.5 micron merino was the true starting point of turning heavy, coarse woollen clothing into soft, light, non scratch, non itch garments. It reintroduced wool as a versatile and friendly to wear, next-to-skin fabric.
As a natural fibre Superfine Merino has two very real performance benefits. It can control the level of moisture within each fibre to keep you warm in cold temperatures and cool in hot temperatures. It can also absorb and disguise body odour allowing garments to be worn continually for days.
The construction of our 190 gram/m², single jersey, 18.5 micron Superfine merino has remained unchanged for over a decade. The fabric is renowned for its stability. Even with constant machine washing and wear our Superfine garments will not lose shape, shrink or pill. Soft as your favourite cotton T-shirts, the strength and durability of the fibre ensures they will last much longer.
Superfine Merino is an ideal next-to-skin fabric for travel or for anyone wanting the all day comfort and warmth of a natural fibre.

Most of my reviews talk about he multi-use facet of ESS garments and the slingshot does this as well as any. Incredibly warm for its weight, the standard solid ESS construction and the benefits of merino. I’ve worn this top from remote expedition in Northern British Columbia through to outings in high-end restaurants in Seattle. The slingshot covers it all.
