About Woolpower

Woolpower is a Swedish brand. In the early 1970s, in collaboration with the Swedish army, they started producing merino wool thermal underwear. This development results in clothing that can withstand the most extreme temperatures and is also very durable. Woolpower clothing never consists of 100% merino wool, as this is too wear-sensitive for intensive use. By adding other materials, the Woolpower underwear is optimally able to transport and evaporate sweat.

Woolpower products are made in Östersund, Jämtland. The seamstresses make a complete Woolpower product from start to finish. When they are satisfied with the result, they sew their own name tag into the garment.

Woolpower's idea is that it is not thermal clothing that keeps you warm, but your own body. Woolpower's thermal clothing ensures that there is a layer of air between the body and your thermal underwear, thanks to Woolpower's unique structure. Woolpower thermal clothing is available in 3 types, the LITE, Ullfrotté Original 200 and Ullfrotté Original 400. There are also socks in Ullfrotté Original 600 and even in Ullfrotté Original 800.
