Fire Retardant Merino Base Layer

Armadillo Merino fire retardant base layers are next-to-skin garments made from merino wool that exploits the fibre's naturally high ignition temperature (570-600 C) and self-extinguishing, no-melt/no-drip behaviour to protect first responders from burn injury. The garments also offer thermo-regulation, moisture management and UV protection.
