WHERE DOES MERINO WOOL COME FROM?

Baby in Merino is dedicated to using high quality Merino wool sourced from Australia.

Merino is one of the world’s most ancient breed of sheep. They are very different from the sheep you see grazing the lowland farms, and so is the wool they produce. Merino live in the extremes of New Zealand and Australia’s southern alps and highlands. Their fleece is the result of survival in a natural environment which changes from -20°C in the winter to 35°C in the summer. The Merino thrive in these cold, dry conditions, and just as nature intended, grow huge soft fleece of wool - the most sought after prized wool in the world, renowned for its quality, purity and softness. Merino has evolved temperature control properties that nothing synthetic can come close to.
