Why our winter clothes are great all year round – even as it warms up!

Some people think ioMerino is only for winter. Wrong! #FakeNews Our gear is brilliant for the in-between seasons and even as the weather warms up. Here are 10 reasons why io is still the perfect choice as you go through spring and summer.

1. Natural is better, any time of year. Synthetic fabrics aren’t great for the environment, no matter the season. If you love nature, go natural all year round and go with io.

2. Breathable and stink resistant. Think that’s important in winter? It’s even more important as temperatures rise. Less sweat, less stink, less washing—more time outside.

3. Temperature regulating. Just like the wool in your roof keeps your house cool in summer, io helps keep your body comfortable as the temperature fluctuates. No thermostat required.
