Maximum quality and responsibility of Patagonia.
The use of land in the Valdés Peninsula was based mainly on sheep farming. The Valdés Peninsula is a 4,000 square kilometer protected area in Patagonia that was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1999. There, ranchers are committed to the coexistence between raising sheep for wool production and populations of healthy wildlife. That is, responsible standards are established that take into account the sustainable use of grasslands in coexistence with native herbivores.
Therefore, certified Wildlife Friendly™ wool is fully traceable and processed according to responsible standards and certified protocols.
In this wild, cold and uninhabited region, flocks of Merino sheep graze freely and undisturbed, having a healthy and natural diet. Finally, they are sheared regularly (between October and November) and better wool is obtained when they reach adulthood.
As a result, they are regarded for their fiber, which is considered one of the finest and noblest in the world. For the love of the animal, our merino wool is a mulesing-free wool.

Merino wool comes exclusively from the selected fibers of our best Merino breed animals in Peninsula Valdés. Each step of the process (from animal husbandry to spinning) is carried out following a strict procedure with a specific protocol to ensure not only the quality of our products, but also the way we source and then design them.
This merino wool is characterized by its softness and at the same time its warmth. Thanks to its insulating capacity, it warms in winter, is pleasant on hot days and is odorless all day long. Finally, due to its unique fiber structure, merino wool has self-cleaning properties. This eliminates the need for frequent washing.
