Materials and Technology
100% Merino Wool
Made entirely from premium merino wool, the Adventure Merino 190 Shirt delivers exceptional comfort and natural performance. Merino wool actively regulates body temperature, helping keep you warm in cooler conditions while preventing overheating during periods of higher exertion.
Rib-Knit Construction
The rib-knit fabric provides natural stretch and flexibility without relying on synthetic elastane fibres. This allows the garment to move comfortably with your body while maintaining its shape over time.
190g/m² Fabric Weight
With a fabric weight of 190g/m², the Adventure Merino 190 Shirt offers an excellent balance of warmth and breathability, making it suitable for year-round outdoor use.
19-Micron Merino Fibres
Fine 19-micron merino fibres create a soft, comfortable feel against the skin, making the shirt ideal for all-day wear whether you're hiking, travelling, or relaxing outdoors.
Features and Functionality
The Adventure Merino 190 Shirt is designed to adapt naturally to changing weather conditions and varying activity levels. Merino wool absorbs and releases moisture vapour efficiently, helping maintain a comfortable microclimate close to the skin without feeling damp or clammy.
Unlike many synthetic fabrics, merino wool continues to insulate when wet and naturally resists odour build-up. This makes the shirt particularly well suited to backpacking, multi-day hikes, and travel where washing opportunities may be limited.
For greater comfort while carrying a backpack, Devold has incorporated articulated shoulder construction that sits smoothly beneath shoulder straps. Flatlock seams further improve comfort by reducing friction and helping prevent chafing during long days on the trail.
Equally effective worn as a standalone top in milder conditions or as the foundation of a layering system during colder weather, the Adventure Merino 190 Shirt offers dependable performance throughout the year.
