Welcome to our guide to layering! Whether you're a seasoned outdoor enthusiast or just starting out exploring the outdoors, an effective layering system is key to managing different weather conditions. In this guide, we'll give you insight into how to combine Janus merino wool for optimal comfort and performance.
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.
