It’s Not a New Fabric,
It’s a New Way of Making Fabric

38.9^% Loftier

NO TWISTS- Only Comfort. Because there are no twists in the yarn, fabrics feel less prickly on the skin. There's heaps of loftiness with less weight.
35^% Stretchier

Stretchier clothes move better with your body. NuYarn has a zero percent spirality so our clothing retains its shape and seams stay put.
5x Faster Drying

Next to skin climate is controlled through the wicking of moisture away from the skin. Drying faster is better.
25^% Warmer

* compared to traditional ring spun yarn

THE NUYARN INNOVATION IS IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE FABRIC ITSELF, IT CAN NEVER BE WASHED OR WORN AWAY.

Traditional wool fabric is knit from single ply yarns in which wool fibers are drawn into fine strands and twisted together for strength. NuYarn eliminates the twist in the yarn. Fibers are placed around a core at a parallel orientation, and drawn out into a super fine fiber with zero twist. NuYarn uses a nylon core for added strength, hidden inside the fine merino-wrapped fiber. This super fine fiber is then doubled up to create strong two-ply yarns to be knitted into fabric. The resulting merino outperforms the world’s best ring-spun merino fabrics in almost every performance metric.
