What do you need merino for in winter?
Running in winter
For runs in cold and wind: jacket, vest and trousers from the Endurance range, light and made from merino blends.
Endurance
Merino running wear for cold days
Endurance is the Devold running range, made for long runs in cold and wind, on the road, in the forest or in the mountains. Every piece is made from merino wool or a merino blend. According to Devold, merino is breathable and inhibits odours.
The Endurance Merino Jacket keeps the wind off at the front, shoulders and upper arms. The back, neck and forearms are soft merino wool, and a vent on the back lets heat escape. If sleeves are too warm for you, take the Endurance Merino Vest with wind protection and a chest pocket for your phone. Below, pair it with the Endurance Merino Tights or the Endurance Merino Pants, long trousers with a drawcord and a zip at the hem.

Merino base layers
The layer next to your skin
Which layer goes next to your skin depends on how much you move.
Breeze Plus Merino 200 for active days hiking or on the cross-country trail: the warmer version of the Breeze fabric, made from pure merino wool.
Wool Mesh 190 for lots of movement, such as ski touring: mesh zones let heat and moisture out, while the air pockets in the mesh keep you warm when it gets colder.
Duo Active Merino 205 for sensitive skin: a synthetic fibre (ThermoLite) on the inside, merino wool on the outside. That way the wool does not sit directly on your skin.

Reverso
One hoodie, two sides
You can wear the Reverso Merino Hoodie either way out. The smooth side is more breathable, the 3D-knit side with air channels is warmer. So on a ski tour you choose the warmth the weather calls for.
It is 99 percent merino wool, has a close fit and a hood. Devold developed it together with freeriders and mountaineers.

Strengths and limits independent of the partnership
What Devold merino is good for
Strong at
- Merino for running too: the Endurance jacket and vest are 54 percent merino wool, the tights 68 percent
- Wind protection where the wind hits: on the Endurance jacket at the front, shoulders and upper arms, while the back stays airy
- Base layers for different needs: Breeze Plus for active days, Wool Mesh for lots of movement, Duo Active for sensitive skin
Not the focus
- Rain: Endurance is made for wind and is not specified as waterproof. In steady rain you need a waterproof layer on top
- On their own in severe cold: Wool Mesh and Reverso keep you warm under a jacket, but wind protection is not specified for them

Why Devold
Devold started in 1853 in Ålesund on the west coast of Norway, making wool underwear and mittens for fishermen. Production later moved to the neighbouring village of Langevåg, where the brand is still based today. According to Devold, its clothing was part of polar expeditions such as Fridtjof Nansen's crossing of Greenland in 1888. Today Devold makes merino base layers, running wear and knitted sweaters for everyone who spends winter outdoors.
