Functional sportswear brand Goldwin has partnered with New-Zealand based fashion label icebreaker to launch a striking, merino wool collection consisting of seven gender-neutral garments.
Blending everyday styles with sleek contemporary designs and unique natural fabrics, the new collection should appeal to fashion-forward consumers that prioritize comfort and quality. Some standout items in the collection include a merino 15.5 hoodie and top combo, an ultra-lightweight pair of trousers, and a single-layer merino coat that's made from a high-quality brushed milled jersey material.
All the items included in the collection are offered in soothing nude and brown colorways, making them ideal fall-time wardrobe pieces. The new 'Goldwin x icebreaker' collection is available now on both Goldwin and icebreaker's websites.
