Yasmine Al-Bustami USA (March 2019) The Alpine jacket has been my go-to jacket since I got it! I’ve been wearing it EVERYWHERE–on my early morning hikes, every time I go for a run, as well as when I travel. Hands-down the lightest yet warmest jacket I own. The thumb holes are an added bonus!

An exceptional active base layer. The seam positioning is really clever to create an attractive silhouette, and the blue colour is lovely (sometimes aesthetics matter) and keep the garment close to the skin without being tight. Retains excellent warmth when wet, and is highly breathable. Also surprisingly durable to snagging when worn as an outer layer. I’ve shopped A LOT for merino singlet base layers, and the three things I look for are: (1) ultralight blend, (2) must have sizing suitable to small people and not excessively long (tucking into knicks for cycling purposes), and (3) a relatively low scooped neck, so that efficient venting is still possible by cracking the zip on a jersey. This ticks all those boxes, and I can confidently tell you that none of the mainstream outdoor or cycling brands (as at autumn 2019) had a single product offering that suited these purposes.

A go to sock for off-road run adventures. Comfortable, breathable and no blisters they are a high cut which adds extra protection from the elements. Love them ☺️

I absolutely love the WW Xfit Xtreme compression socks having used them during my long training runs. They are comfortable and feel like they aren’t even there. I love wearing them and will definitely be wearing them in my next ultra marathon.’

The WW Base layers were all extremely comfortable and soft. Not itchy at all. As there was no laundry facility or even showers as we climbed higher, the clothes’ odour-resistance was ESSENTIAL and very obvious. They simply didn’t smell and they also dried very quickly. I found it really amazing that the same top kept me warm when it was cold, and kept me cool when it was hot. I wore the pair of long johns at night as a pj and they kept me very warm’. I found the merino fusion top very interesting. It has all the qualities of a merino top, warm and comfortable, but not as soft and doesn’t cling to the body as much. I feel it’s more suitable as a top layer with a lighter weight merino underneath.

I am now a total Wilderness Wear sock convert. Wore my new 10K's to gym this morning (I'm a 15 year Icebreaker wearer) and was super impressed with the comfort and support. Great item.

The Xfit eXtreme’s are very comfortable socks. They provided great compression. Wore them for short run and then during the day I didn’t feel any soreness after the run. I have been sceptical of compression clothing in the past. Wilderness Wear has made a great sock with even better materials within the sock. As someone who has a sports science degree I can highly recommend these socks.

I’ve just got back from my trip around the Larapinta. And the performance of the T-shirt Fusion 160 over the whole week hiking has been excellent. The wicking of the fabric was unbelievable and aid me during the unseasonable hot days. Also its breathability kept me cool under the sun and quite warm during the evening. I wore the T-shirt during the days and the evenings since the expected nights around 0C did not occur. Moreover, after 7 days of heavy usage the clothing barely had any smell so I can assure you that its antibacterial properties also worked well. Again thank you! Your company has developed an incredible new fabric that sustained really tough conditions over a whole week of walking an average of 6 to 7 hours, 20 km per day, carrying 18 kg and day temperatures of 28 to 30 C.

The Merino 10k Extreme sock – Perfect running sock, actually perfect all round sock. I’ve worn them on 15km & 20km runs and they were brilliant. They did not move, the cut of the sock is really comfortable and there was absolutely no signs of rubbing.

The Xfit xtreme socks are fantastic! I’ve been wearing on shoot days which are usually long and I’m on my feet most of the time. The socks are super comfortable, supportive (but not too tight). I will be getting a lot of use out of these ones.
