The all-new ULTRA Merino 120 LT answers KUIU’s never-ending challenge of reducing weight, while improving durability.
KUIU partnered with Nuyarn® to engineer a fabric that was lighter than the 125 g/m² predecessor, yet stronger. Without sacrificing natural softness, comfort, and performance, the new 120 g/m² fabric uses a thicker nylon yarn core, creating higher dimensional stability, improved regain, and added durability. The result is the lightest and toughest in the industry—the ULTRA Merino 120 LT.
Merino wool as a natural fiber excels at thermoregulation and odor resistance, these are key performance factors for long-duration hunts. At KUIU, we source the finest quality Merino wool from New Zealand, targeting a 17.5-micron fiber diameter for itch free comfort. We do not use chemical softeners that wash off over time.
The Nuyarn technology is not a synthetic blend, the wool fibers surround a core of high-strength nylon. You get the benefits of 100% Merino next to skin, but with a highly durable synthetic at the core of the yarn.
Combining the low reflectivity of Merino with a camouflage print can really help you go undetected at close contact range. Through years of continuous improvement, our camouflage print fabric is just as soft as our solids, with colorfastness that will last for years.
At KUIU, we truly build our Merino to a higher standard, from the fiber to the yarn, and outward to the fabric and the print. It’s the lightest, strongest, and highest performing Merino on the market.
