Fabric weight: 260gsm
Fabric weight (gsm)
GSM means grams per square metre. Higher GSM usually means a thicker knit, more warmth, and better wind resistance.
Lower GSM usually feels lighter, dries faster, and is better for high output.
Fibre diameter: 18.5µm
Fibre diameter (microns)
Microns measure the thickness of each merino fibre.
Smaller microns usually feel softer against skin because the fibres bend more easily. Larger microns usually feel firmer and can be more rugged for outer layers.
| Fibre | Thickness |
|---|---|
| Ultra fine | 15µm |
| Super fine | 17.5µm |
| Fine | 20µm |
| Mid-weight | 22.5µm |
| Coarse | 25µm |
| Human hair | ~70µm |
Merino's natural odour resistance means a simple air between wears is almost always enough, and the less you wash it, the longer it lasts.

Choose options
Offset shoulder seams
Thoughtfully positioned seams sit away from rucksack straps, eliminating pressure points and rubbing on long days out with a pack
Thumb loops
Deep cuffs with integrated thumb loops keep sleeves in place and cold air out, giving you that extra bit of warmth when the temperature drops
Flatlock stitching
Specially constructed seams lie flat against the skin, reducing chafing and irritation so you can focus on the adventure, not your kit
Proudly natural
Our Merino wool is ethically sourced from trusted Australian suppliers with a heritage dating back to 1857. We only use non-mulesed wool, working with partners who prioritise animal welfare and responsible land management.
Merino is a renewable, biodegradable fibre that naturally regulates temperature, manages moisture and resists odour, delivering reliable performance with a lighter environmental impact.

I have 3 other tops from Isobaa, all size M, all fit perfectly. I ordered this item in size M and it is labeled as size M but it has the measurements of XXL
We are sorry to hear about the issue with your item. This sounds like it has been mislabelled and we've replied directly to your support ticket. Thanks for flagging it.
Hello. I bought it on www.sportpursuit.com. I bought 2 pieces of different colors. Unfortunately, the threads stick out from the inside and outside, and they come apart at the seams. For such a price, the quality of sewing is poor. It is understandable - China.
Thanks for your review – we're really sorry to hear about the issues with the seams. That’s definitely not the standard we aim for. Since you ordered via SportPursuit, we’d recommend reaching out to their customer service team directly, but if there’s anything we can assist with from our side, feel free to get in touch.
Only worn this a few times and in multiple places the threads are coming loose, and a small hole is developing. Bought in the sales, but even so, would have hoped it could last a bit longer. It does look and fit nicely.
We're sorry to hear about the issues with your hoodie, Adam. While it's good to know it looks good and fits well, it should certainly last longer. Please contact our customer service team with your order information for a possible refund or replacement.

I did Everest Basecamp trek back in March 2023 and this was on me pretty much 24/7. I took quite a few different garment some of which were some mainstream major outwear brands and this topped them all for comfort, warms and breathability. It's one of my most worn pieces of clothing in any scenario. Absolutely love it!
That's amazing to hear! Thank you for sharing your experience with us - the team is thrilled to hear that our products are reaching new heights!
Best wishes,
The Isobaa Team
Stylish and comfortable. Not worn yet due to the hot weather.
Love the colour and contrast zip.
It's warm enough for chilly days, even cooler times in summer, like early mornings. It doesn't get too hot though, like a fleece can. Found I didn't need to keep taking it on and off.
Surprised to find it is also quite windproof.
Smart looking.
Eine tolle Jacke👍
Bought for use on our Irish rd trip as packs small lightweight and warm
I was looking for a lightweight warm mid alt base layer and wow was i impressed. Would highly recommend Isobaa clothing.
Come da aspettative
C’est simple je ne porte plus que ça … ou presque. C’est devenu mon sweat préféré, chaud, confortable, bien taillé, pour le moment il répond parfaitement à mes attentes.
Veru happy with it
I’m pleased with how it looks and it’s very comfortable and appears well made. Can’t comment on longevity and I haven’t even washed it yet - hence 4 stars; however, if it lasts well I’d definitely buy more from Isobaa.
Bought this merino jumper with bike rides during cold weather in mind, but started wearing it way before the temperatures dropped and, to my surprise, I don’t get too hot! The merino wool feels very comfortable next to the skin, the fabric allows for unrestricted movements. Now I keep asking myself why didn’t I get one sooner ;)
Envoi rapide,taille parfaite.
The fit of this top is nothing short of awful. There's a huge excess of material around the pectoral areal where it joins the arms, yet not enough material under the arm, so lifting the arm feels really tight. Really badly tailored.
Thanks for your feedback, and we’re sorry to hear the fit wasn't right for you.
We haven’t had this issue raised before on this style, so your comments are really helpful, and we'll pass them on to our design team for review. If you’d like any help with a return or exchange, our customer service team will be happy to assist.
a top quality slim-fitting base-layer type hoodie (not your baggy sort).
Great color, superb material... too long and too bulky though.
The red merino hoody, with zip is basically a track suit and very comfortable and stylish. It is warm but easy to wear and get on and off and change climate control with the zip. The sleeves fit me perfectly for when I want them up, but if you have anything but skinny forearms you may be in trouble as they would be tight. I'm very happy with my purchase. I don't know about long term but it feels sturdy enough, but if it wore out I would get another one! The hood itself is very well designed and comfortable.
Mens Merino 260 Casual Hoodie (Black)
Love this hoodie!!! It is so comfortable and well made. It’s a fitted shape so brilliant for layering up.
Dear isobar,
Could I please check if this product is 100% merino wool/natural, or does the material contain man made fibres. I want something without any plastic fibres.
Thanks
Hi James,
The 260 Casual Hoodie material is indeed 100% natural merino wool. It is worth noting that the YKK zipper does have a different material for the webbing. We are currently verifying whether the material is Nylon or Polyester, and we'll get back to you as soon as we have confirmed this.
Kind regards,
The Isobaa Team
