#summitsafely giveaway – Win EDZ Merino Wool Base Layers

EDZ 2

It's week 13 of the 20 week #summitsafely campaign. This weeks #summitsafely top tip – don’t forget your base layers, they are an important part of your kit which are often overlooked.

This weeks giveaway is courtesy of EDZ, we've got a set of Merino Wool Base Layers up for grabs.

Did you know Merino are a breed of sheep that originated in Spain & now are bred for their wool in New Zealand and Australia?  All wool has similar properties but Merino wool is very fine & soft enough to be worn comfortably next to bare skin. Merino wool is a natural insulator & ideal for layering as you only need a relatively thin layer of Merino to make a big difference.

Not heard what #summitsafely is all about yet? Well, during our Fell Top Assessors season (December - April) which runs for 20 weeks we are sharing top tips for reaching a summit safely and to help you on your way we are giving goodies away each week.
