Virgin merino wool is an unprocessed wool and is obtained from merino sheep or lambs. Regular merino wool is processed from the withers only of merino sheep. While not as soft as virgin merino wool, the regular merino wool is still of excellent quality.

What is the difference between merino wool and virgin wool?

Merino wool comes specifically from Merino sheep and is known for its softness, breathability, and moisture-wicking properties, making it ideal for activewear and layering. Virgin wool, on the other hand, refers to wool that has never been processed or used before, regardless of the sheep breed, and can include various types of wool. Essentially, while all merino wool can be considered virgin if it hasn't been processed before, not all virgin wool is merino.
