Running in Winter with Icebreaker merino

Hello QMT fans! Winter is here, but that doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy the outdoors. When temperatures drop, we can stay warm with the right gear! Icebreaker has everything from next-to-skin comfort to outerwear protection, and that’s why we recommend them as your go-to winter running apparel.

Stay Warm and Dry with Merino

Every adventure starts (and ends) with next-to-skin comfort. All icebreaker base layers are thermoregulating, meaning they adapt to both your internal body temperature and external environmental changes. With the added benefit of moisture-wicking to keep you dry, a Merino base layer can make all the difference on your winter runs.

Performance and Comfort

Merino is a natural performance fiber that is incredibly lightweight, ensuring your layers won’t weigh you down. It’s also naturally odor-resistant, so you will feel fresh longer while reducing the need for frequent washing. The icebreaker merino next-to-skin softness will have you returning for all your winter running adventures!

WHY IS MERINO NATURALLY BETTER?

• Odor Resistance: Keeps you fresh and confident all day long, wear after wear.
• THERMOREGULATION: Keeps you warm when it’s cold, cool when it’s warm, so you stay just right in any weather.
• SOFTNESS: Merino wool fibres are incredibly fine, itch-free, and so soft next to skin you won’t want to wear anything else.
• MOISTURE MANAGEMENT: Merino moves away moisture to keep you dry and comfortable, no matter what the day brings.
