We developed this range for all athletic ski tourers. The thin material consists of a mix of fine merino fibers on the inside and a protective shell on the outside. We have placed windproof elements in certain zones in order to prevent cooling in sensitive areas.
Uncompromising sustainability! We have insulated the new generation of our Swisswool jackets with a homogenous layer of fair-trade Swiss virgin wool (150 g/m²), keeping you warm even at low temperatures. The nylon outer layer is also windproof and water-resistant.
One piece, two styles: We have given our SWISSWOOL® LIGHT SERIES new colors for your wild side. The 90g/m² lining made of Swiss wool isn’t just super sustainable, it can also be packed away extremely well.
It doesn’t get much more technical than this. Lined with 60g/m² Swiss wool, the Swisswool Light Tec series is the thinnest, but also the most technically advanced Swisswool range. The products in this series can be compacted and packed away particularly well. Equipped with stretch inserts, they are perfect for athletic alpinists.
Tasmania through and through! Our all-season line is made of 100 % pure Tasmanian merino wool with a weight of 185 g/m² and an average fineness of 18 microns, making it perfect for mountain sports activities while also proving very comfortable away from the summit.
Our warmest teddy fleece! Jam-packed with snug wool, this fleece means you will never be cold, even on icy days. The mix of polyester on the outside and wool on the inside is super breathable and also very durable.
In our classic range, pure functionality meets natural comfort. The blend of merino wool on the inside and polyester on the outside provides an unbelievably stretchy, durable and breathable product that is as much at home on the mountains as it is in the valley.
Nuyarn is the most exclusive yarn in our range. In an innovative manufacturing process, the finest wool fibers are spun around a nylon core. The resulting yarn allows us to create fabrics that are lighter but at the same time more voluminous and functional than anything we have produced before.
Pure merino wool for anyone who likes it colorful! The merino wool fibers are produced in the natural paradise of Tasmania and, at 18 microns, are so delicate that we can’t even feel them. The high-tech sheep fibers transport moisture away from the body and provide great freshness and comfort thanks to their odor neutralizing qualities.
It doesn’t get any softer than this! We have combined the best characteristics of functional merino fibers on the outside with the silky softness of Lenzing Modal® on the skin. Like merino wool, Modal® is a natural fiber. It originates in the wood of sustainably managed beech forests and is as soft as silk.
Our athletic item that consistently wins best in class! Various publications consistently name and rename the 230 Merino Competition their favorite product. And with good reason, because the innovative combination of 80 % merino wool with artificial fibers ensures excellent performance values and extraordinary wear comfort!
Thanks to merino, you can enjoy a whole new level of outdoor comfort. The outer layer of our hats is 100 % merino wool, keeping your head at the optimal temperature and simultaneously regulating excess moisture. For the inner layer we use our proven super-soft material, a scratch-free mixture of merino wool and Lenzing Modal®.
In our world, no material is better suited than wool for ensuring warm fingers in the fight against the cold. It has the excellent quality of drawing moisture away from the skin and storing it in its fiber core, while the outside of the fiber remains dry! The result is comfort – even in the wet, icy cold!
Our traditional range, hardly changed since 1988. The reason is simple: Thousands of enthusiastic mountaineers, a lot of summit successes on high mountains, and consistently warm fingers. Produced in a small factory in Austria, the Classic Wool range includes some of our most popular wool products.
Merino comfort for the feet, too! Using zone-specific material distribution, we have produced an optimum fit and excellent functionality for mountain sports. The fine wool of the Tasmanian merino sheep also ensures feet smell good, even after being worn repeatedly on long tours.

The range for all those powder junkies who want to dive deep into the white stuff! Fitted with a TÜV-certified, removable back protector, these models impress with their high degree of protection and a slim silhouette that fits the body perfectly.
The versatility of our avalanche airbags is very important. That’s why we’ve developed the world’s first removable ABS system, compatible with all ORTOVOX avalanche airbag backpacks, meaning you can constantly switch between various models and adapt to nature’s whims.
We have been producing the most innovative and reliable avalanche transceivers exclusively in Germany since 1980! We use technologies that make it easier for people to find you, and develop operating concepts and hardware that ensure searches are simpler and more intuitive, even in the most stressful of situations.
In an avalanche rescue, an avalanche shovel can be the most useful time-saving tool. That’s why we make no compromises, only using robust materials to produce shovel blades with a blade volume of 2.5 liters or above. Speed of use and a sensible pack size come as standard with ORTOVOX!
Without an avalanche probe, your chances of a successful rescue are slim. That’s why we produce probes that are quick to use, made of stable materials, and never push the boundaries of what is technically possible. Reliability is our top priority.
Comfort and functionality come together in this unique range! The finest merino fibers in the liner are interwoven with a protective shell. This provides outstanding breathability even without a membrane, while still providing protection from wind and precipitation.
