Merino wool and cashmere offer the best warmth-to-weight ratio, followed by fleece and heavy cotton blends. Merino wool is naturally temperature-regulating and moisture-wicking, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor wear. MyWear lets you sort your winter tops by material so you can pick the warmest option for any given day.
