Nature's Miracle Fabric

Nature's Miracle Fabric

Merino wool fibers allow it to wick moisture away from your skin, which ensures comfort and moisture management. Merino wool’s complex structure locks odor molecules within the fiber and only releases them on washing. This ensures Merino wool resists unpleasant odors often experienced with other fibers.

Softer Than Cotton

Softer Than Cotton

This wool isn’t like your typical itchy sweater. We only use superfine (17.5 micron) Merino wool, resulting in a luxurious-feeling hoodie that’s softer, lighter and warmer than a traditional cotton hoodie.

Merino Micro Terry

Merino Micro Terry

Don’t let the lightness fool you—this French terry delivers warmth, stretch, and serious performance. Developed for our Compact Travel Hoodie, it’s made from 78% Merino wool and built for movement and breathability. Thermoregulating and packable, it keeps you warm when you need it, without weighing you down.

“The perfect T-shirt can see you through almost any situation, and Unbound makes a strong bid for the title with their chic Merino designs.”

"It's the most popular T-shirt in our Merino guide and well-loved by travelers. It's very soft and lightweight, and it packs down to a tiny roll."

“These tees have a sophisticated European elegance to them, thanks to both the material and design. Just looking at them makes you feel chic.”

“Between the flattering fit and the classic style, it's a great option for travel.”

"I may hold off on washing this T-shirt for another few weeks. It miraculously looks and smells like it was just cleaned."

"This is the perfect base layer as it’s super lightweight and is anti-wrinkle and moisture-wicking. This can quickly become your new closet staple at home and on the road."

"I may hold off on washing this T-shirt for another few weeks. It miraculously looks and smells like it was just cleaned."

"Lightweight and breathable, this shirt has a perfectly soft feel. The thin material is moisture-wicking, making this great for layering or wearing on its own."

"Unbound Merino sits at the intersection of travel gear and luxe knitwear, offering wool garments in timeless styles. They use superfine premium Merino wool that’s Woolmark-certified."

"This shirt's wool fibers lock odor molecules within and only release them on washing — which means less washing and more wearing. That makes this the ultimate travel top."

    This was my first purchase from Unbound and the reason for ordering the hoodie was to replace a ~20 year old beloved Banana Republic merino and cashmere hoodie. The new hoodie feels more like sweatshirt material rather than wool. Also it is less charcoal and is more slate in color, with a blueish tinge to it. But, it is soft and fits well. I’m sure it will grow on me.

    I Understand the Hype

    BLUF: Great lightweight jacket or zip hoodie. Great for the slightly chilly mornings and evening and works well layered under a rain jacket. As with their other items, consider sizing up if you're used to other brands like Wool & Prince (check their size guides, which are accurate).

    Long Story: I was hesitant on this due to a lot of internet / Youtube hype, which I often find leads to overpriced sponsored products that I abandon. I bought the transit hoodie a little while ago and absolutely love it, so decided to give this a shot. I also have the Ponte Travel hoodie from Wool & Prince, which I also love but wanted something a little thinner for the chilly days and that would layer a little easier.

    This fits the bill from a size and weight perspective. As with all Unbound items, it's well made and feels great. I don't have concerns on its durability, outside the normal wool concerns. Sizing wise, the size matches the measurements on the site, but I think overall, there measurements are smaller than typical US, so I normally wear an XL but get XXL from Unbound

    I do wish the pockets were zipper pockets like the transit hoodie; that was a feature I didn't realize how much I would like.

    So compact

    I’m very happy of my new purchase. I carry with me in my backpack, and doesn’t need much space at all. Perfect for the plane ride. And also looks very good.

    Perfect

    Fit and feels like a glove. This is my 3rd hoodie purchased and

    Unbound Merino never disappoints.
