Women deserve gear designed specifically to suit their adventurous spirits. From mountain bike shorts designed to fit curves to merino wool socks that wick away sweat and prevent blisters, women’s outdoor clothing designed for versatility and comfort can be found.

According to a recent survey, 60% of adventurous women feel their gear options are limited and have even turned to shopping in men’s sections for purchase. Luckily, many brands are beginning to recognize this need and provide appropriate alternatives.

WoolX

Woolx is a family-owned business that utilizes 100% Australian Merino wool. Their garments are breathable, soft against the skin, machine washable and dry quickly; plus feature reinforced stitching in all the appropriate places – perfect for active outdoor women as base layers that provide warmth even when wet!

Merino wool provides warmth even when damp, while also wicking sweat away from your body to prevent overheating or chilling. It’s the ideal material to help avoid both.

Merino wool’s other advantage lies in its natural ability to resist odor and can be worn multiple times before needing to be laundered, saving both space and weight for travel purposes. Furthermore, due to its lightweight nature and easy packing requirements for winter hikes and snowboarding trips. This material makes Merino an excellent base layer option.

Alpine Fit

Merino wool base layers are an essential element of outdoor adventures. A good fitting base layer should fit comfortably without being too tight or loose, providing optimal thermoregulation and moisture wicking performance. Alpine Fit’s size chart will assist in finding the ideal base layer to suit your body type.

Merino wool sweaters are known for being itchy, but merino wool is soft and stretchy enough not to cause skin chafing when moving around. Additionally, its anti-odor properties make it the ideal choice for multi-day outdoor adventures.

Alpine Fit’s odor-resistance fabrics can be especially helpful when hiking in harsh conditions where sweat can build up and cause unpleasant odors to arise. Their ethically sourced merino wool line features recycled nylon for an eco-friendly solution; additionally, its silver weaved into their Mercerized Silver fabric adds durability, making it suitable for long hikes or mountaineering expeditions; furthermore they dry quickly making them comfortable enough to wear multiple days without washing if required.

Alder

Alder’s co-founders Mikayla Wujec and Naomi Blackman understand the challenges women who enjoy outdoor pursuits face when trying to access an industry with narrow definitions of what constitutes “outdoorsy.” To give everyone access to picnic tables, their goal is to design clothing with functional, fun features that reflect customer experiences while remaining durable and inclusive sizing options ranging from XS-4X sizes.

Red alder trees are fascinating botanical marvels despite their modest stature and unassuming bark. Their roots help stabilize soil while their leaves provide essential nitrogen sources. Alder flowers can also be used for dyes while their resin can even be used to tan leather!
