The layering principle is about dressing smart for changing conditions. At the core you have a breathable and moisture-wicking layer that keeps you dry. Then an insulating layer that traps heat, and on the outside a protective layer against the elements. Merino wool is ideal in all of these layers – soft against the skin, naturally temperature-regulating and durable enough to last. With Janus Wool, you can build your own system of layers that work in everyday life, on trips and in the most demanding conditions.
Layer 1. Baselayers
Wool underwear should be thin and close-fitting to effectively transport sweat away from the skin. Wool is the optimal choice with its natural moisture-wicking properties and ability to retain heat even when wet. We recommend sweaters and longs in the quality of Light, Warm and Extra Warm.
Layer 2. Midlayers
This layer has a dual function: to keep you warm and to transport moisture and excess heat away from the body. The midlayer should be loose-fitting to create an air space between layer 1 and the outerwear. We recommend a jacket, hoodie and trousers in the Extra Warm quality.
Layer 3. Shell clothing
Shell clothing is the outer layer and protects against wind and rain. Shell clothing is constructed with materials that provide both waterproofness and breathability. These garments are essential for outdoor activities, ensuring optimal protection from the elements during activities such as skiing and mountaineering. Choose the right shell clothing that suits your activities to achieve maximum comfort and performance in varied weather conditions.
Accessories
Accessories such as wool hats, wool mittens and wool socks play a crucial role in layering. Wool material is ideal for these garments due to its natural properties. Wool hats help to preserve body heat by preventing heat loss through the head. Wool mittens keep hands warm even in damp conditions, thanks to wool's ability to retain its insulating properties when wet. Wool socks transport moisture away from the feet and help maintain warmth, while providing comfort and protection. Our wool products will help to enhance your overall experience when you are out and about in the Norwegian winter weather.
