Why Choose Otematata's 'Outcast' Merino Wool?

    • By choosing locally grown merino wool, you support sustainable farming practices and animal welfare. New Zealand sheep farmers adhere to strict ethical standards, ensuring the humane treatment of their flocks and the preservation of the environment.
  3. Superior Quality Control
    • Scouring and spinning the wool within New Zealand allows for meticulous quality control at every stage of production. It also allows consistent quality, traceability, and support of local economies, fostering a sense of authenticity and connection to the product's origin.
  4. Environmental Benefits
    • Locally processed wool reduces the carbon footprint associated with transportation and minimizes the environmental impact of production. Additionally, merino wool is biodegradable and renewable, making it an eco-friendly choice for conscious consumers.
  5. Natural Performance Properties
    • Merino wool is naturally breathable, moisture-wicking, and temperature-regulating. It keeps you warm in cold weather and cool in hot weather, making it a versatile material suitable for year-round wear. Its natural resistance to odors and stains also reduces the need for frequent washing.
  6. Supporting Local Communities
