Blue Bear Clothing - superior cycling clothing

Wool is phenomenal textile engineering.
Think about it: sheep stay warm in the snow, yet don’t overheat in the summer. How is that possible? The secret to wool’s temperature control lies under a microscope: miracle technology in every strand.

Temperature Control
Wool fibers have an amazing protein and electronic structure that actively draws water vapor molecules away from the skin and transfers them to the atmosphere. What’s important is that the molecular structure draws water vapor, not liquid. Before the vapor even has a chance to condense into beads of sweat, wool wicks it from your skin, leaving you comfortably dry. That’s why with Blue Bear you don’t get hot and clammy, as you do with synthetics. Or hypothermic from wind blowing on watery sweat. You’re cool, warm, dry—always.

The comfort-control of wool functions best when the fiber is close to bare skin—as with sheep. So Blue Bear’s luxurious fabric adds a touch of stretch to hug you close.

Keeps Rain Out
In a driving Northwest rain, wool can hold an astounding 30% of its weight in water, and still maintain that dry “vapor release” zone by the skin.
