Lisa - ioMerino Outsider

Lisa

Adventurer.

Lisa loves adventure so much, she’s made a career out of it. After starting her professional life in various jobs, she’s since become a travel agent specialising in adventure tours, taking people all over the world and sharing her love of adventure with them. When she’s not making her way to places like Machu Picchu or Everest Base Camp, you’ll likely find her on the local trails in her home state of South Australia, guiding one of her Wise Women Walking tours. One of her goals is to complete the best ten walks in the world, even though at any given time, which ten they are exactly isn't entirely clear.  Her favourite ioMerino is her Keystone long sleeve top (now the Universal), and her ioMerino undies.

Fabric Guide

While Merino is an amazing natural fibre, not all Merino fabrics are created equal. At ioMerino, we make our own fabrics, using only the best quality fibres, and to very specific specifications that make the most of the natural benefits of Merino. All of them are 'Merino rich’. No cheap blends passed off as Merino. No cheaper scratchy fibres or synthetic substitutes to save money. No unethical production. And each fabric is made for a specific purpose. So if you see something with a small amount of elastase or nylon added, you can be sure it absolutely needs to be there to enhance the natural stretch and durability. 

It took every bit of our 140 years of experience in the wool industry to perfect our fabrics, but we think you’ll agree the end result was more than worth the effort.

Ethically Made. Ethically Sourced. Perfectly Natural.
