Smartwool: Comfort, Performance, and Sustainability in Every Season

When it comes to performance apparel that works as hard as you do, Smartwool has been setting the standard for decades. Born in the mountains of Colorado, the brand is rooted in one simple belief: life is better outside when you’re comfortable. That’s why they pioneered the use of Merino wool, a natural, sustainable fiber that keeps you cool when it’s hot, warm when it’s cold, and always comfortable against the skin.

Whether you’re chasing summits, skiing fresh lines, logging trail miles, or just enjoying everyday adventures, Smartwool designs gear that keeps up. Below, we’re spotlighting a few of their core collections that work year-round here in Truckee/Tahoe and beyond.
