Maglificio Alto Milanese is proud to have supplied the Australian Merino wool fabric for the technical training uniforms of the Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli Team for the 37th America’s Cup, in collaboration with The Woolmark Company.
Australian Merino wool once again proves to be an essential high-performance fiber, thanks to its properties of lightness, elasticity, durability, and moisture-wicking. Blended with Tencel, it creates the perfect combination for technical sportswear.
The fabric made from this yarn, combined with a touch of elastane, is lightweight, cool, and pleasant against the skin, with quick-drying properties. It helps the wearer stay cool both in hot weather and during intense physical activity.
The blend is also entirely sustainable: Australian Merino wool and Tencel — produced from eucalyptus tree fibers — are completely natural, renewable, and biodegradable.
