Woolen leggings for women: warm without a plastic layer
A pair of woolen leggings is one of those garments you discover once and then keep pulling out of the closet again and again. Wear them in winter under trousers, dresses, or skirts, at home on the couch, or at night as soft pajama pants. In this collection, you will find thin, close-fitting leggings as well as sturdier yoga and lounge pants. This allows you to choose exactly the amount of warmth and freedom of movement you prefer.
Pure wool or wool-silk: which suits you best?
Leggings made of pure merino wool generally provide the most warmth and feel a bit sturdier. Wool-silk is smoother, more supple, and thinner, making this quality pleasant as a direct base layer or if you have sensitive skin. Are you looking for pants to wear visibly or to move in? Then take a look at the heavier 240 g/m² models. They have more body than the thin underwear leggings.
Not sure yet which quality you need? In our buying guide for woolen underwear, we explain the differences between wool, wool-silk, and the various thicknesses.
Why woolen leggings are so comfortable to wear
Wool is breathable and temperature-regulating. The material absorbs moisture without feeling clammy quickly and needs to be washed much less often than you might think. Often, simply airing them out is enough. Only wash your leggings when necessary, using a suitable wool detergent and on a wool wash cycle.
Wool is a natural fiber and may wear out faster in areas with high friction than synthetic material. Therefore, alternate your leggings and mend a small hole in time; this way, you will usually enjoy them for much longer.
