COMPRESSION MERINO 200 – Fabric Weight 200gsm
Lightweight, robust and comfortable, Compression Merino 200™ maximises performance potential of the wearer by promoting balanced regulation of the core body temperature and giving protection and comfort during extreme, competitive conditions.
On a recent week long trip to tasmania camping and running these were an excellent source Of warmth comfort and recovery! I found at the end of a full day or running and packing up, travelling then reassembling the camper I couldn’t wait to slip into these each evening once all the jobs were done and the fire was going. I could sleep comfortably in them- I didn’t get too hot and they are so comfortable unlike the usual Lycra like material associated with compression gear. My legs and myself felt so good each morning… combination of fresh air and the right gear!! Also as someone who suffers terribly from the cold i could confidently say I am not afraid of camping or running in the cold and wet…now that I have Wilderness Wear the stress of suffering for days outside in the cold is gone!

Women’s Body Measurements
BUST: Measure the circumference of your chest. Place one end of the tape measure at the fullest part of your bust, wrap it around (under your armpits, around your shoulder blades, and back to the front) to get the measurement.
WAIST: Measure the circumference of your waist. Use the tape to circle your waist (sort of like a belt would) at your natural waistline, which is located above your belly button and below your rib cage. (If you bend to the side, the crease that forms is your natural waistline.)
HIP: Measure the circumference of your hips. Start at one hip and wrap the tape measure around your rear, around the other hip, and back to where you started. Make sure the tape is over the largest part of your hips.
INSIDE LEG: This is the distance from the uppermost inner part of your thigh to the bottom of your ankle. If you have a pair of pants that fit you perfectly, measure the inseam of the pants, again from the crotch to the hem.

Athletic Fit
More of a “tailored” fit that is tighter across the middle and shoulder sections in tops and tighter across the backside, upper thigh and lower leg sections in leggings.
Slim Fit
A snug, close-to-the body fit for low bulk, layering. Clothing in this style don’t have extra fabric hanging or draping anywhere.
Regular Fit
Neither snug, nor loose, these garments are worn solo or over other layers. Regular fit clothing tends to fit most body types comfortably and have a little extra fabric than slim fit.
Relaxed Fit
Relaxed refers to a fit that’s looser than regular, but not baggy. Typically, relaxed clothing provide a comfortable, looser fit.

These are a genius concept! I’ve never come across merino used in a compression garment before (and assumed it would be impossible to generate enough compression), but these look, feel, and work superbly. I’ve worn them on a bunch of fast-paced hikes through winter, including some light rock scrambling, and they’ve performed and held up wonderfully. I also wore them as pants through winter a bit more than I should probably admit… Lycra compression garments are highly effective, but I always dread pulling them over wet skin, and life gets pretty unpleasant if the sun comes out and you start overheating in your shrink wrapping. Else it starts raining and you freeze to death. None of these are issues with these highly breathable merino compression leggings.nMy only comment/criticism is regarding the cut and sizing. Based on my measurements, you (correctly) guessed me at a 10, which is unheard of for me (I’m typically a 6/XXS, or whatever the smallest size is in any given brand). I’d suggest adding a note to the product page that these size small. I also found the cut around the backside to be a bit… shallow? I don’t have a lot in the way of glutes, but I still found that these tended to dip slightly lower at the rear of the waistband, which is obviously not desirable if you’re having to bend over a lot. I really liked the low hipster cut of them so it wasn’t that – just not quite enough “scoop” constructed into the backside, for me.

I feel like I'm not wearing anything but they keep me super warm during Winter hikes.

They’re made from pure merino wool but feels really different because the outer fabric is made from a nylon spandex blend. These leggings are extremely comfortable as they’re soft on the inside, but stretchy and strong on the outside. I’ve been looking for leggings that actually stretch during hikes and these are perfect for long walks and even light jogging. What I love about these leggings are that they’re incredibly snug and fits so well on the skin. I feel like I’m not wearing anything but they keep me super warm during the winter hikes that I went on recently in Hong Kong. These leggings are made to withstand tough days and nights on a mountain, and I’m definitely ready to take these for a trip.
