Thermal insulation – The quality-conscious choice is Alpaca Royal from Ruukkin Kehräämö
Choosing the right thermal base layer is important when you want to stay warm and dry. It should be thermoregulating and highly breathable so that you can feel comfortable regardless of the weather.
Not all thermal base layers are the same. At Ruukki's Spinning Mill, we believe that the Alpaca Royal thermal base layer is the best choice for those seeking luxury, performance, and durability in their underwear layers. We have suitable thermal base layers for men, women, and children.
Why a thermal base layer is important
A thermal base layer is an essential part of cold weather clothing. The thermal base layer helps regulate body temperature and protects you from the elements when you want to stay warm during the cold months, whether you are an outdoor enthusiast or a winter sports lover. Although synthetic/technical materials dominate the market, are natural fibers are a better choice both in terms of properties and ethically.
Why Alpakka thermal base layer?
Ruukki's Kehräämö thermal layer is made from the highest quality Royal grade alpaca wool on the market. Alpaca Royal is known for its exceptional softness, warmth, and breathability, making it a superior material for layering. Here are the reasons why Alpaca Royal outperforms other fibers, such as merino wool and synthetic materials:
-
Unmatched softness
Alpaca Royal is incredibly soft, softer than baby alpaca and merino wool. Underwear made from fibers with a diameter of 18 microns feels luxuriously pleasant against the skin. -
Excellent insulation
Alpaca, especially Alpaca Royal, has natural insulation properties that are superior to other fibers. Its fibers regulate heat efficiently. The Alpaca Royal thermal base layer is perfect for extreme and cold conditions. It keeps you warm and dry, and allows movement thanks to its thin layer and lightness. -
Breathability and temperature regulation
Alpaca Royal wool's one special feature is its superior breathability. Unlike knits made from synthetic fibers, which can trap moisture and heat, alpaca wool naturally regulates body temperature. It releases excess heat and moisture, keeping you comfortable and dry in all conditions. -
Water repellency
Alpaca wool has unique water-repellent properties, making it ideal for damp or wet conditions. Unlike merino wool, for example, which absorbs moisture more easily, alpaca wool repels water, keeping you dry and comfortable in rain or snowfall. This is a significant advantage in cold climates where staying dry is especially important. -
Hypoallergenic and skin-friendly
Many people with sensitive skin find that traditional wool irritates the skin due to the natural grease or coarseness contained in the wool. Alpaca Royal fiber is naturally lanolin-free, making it hypoallergenic and antibacterial. Ruukki Spinning Mill's base layers are ideal for sensitive skin or those suffering from wool allergies. -
Durability and strength
Alpaca Royal wool is not only luxurious but also very durable. Its fibers are stronger and more resilient than many other natural fibers. Ruukki Spinning Mill's Alpaca Royal thermal base layer retains both its properties and shape during use.
