WHY I TAKE IT

LEVISON WOOD

Writer, photographer, explorer and so on to a maximum of 15 words.

"I love the X it always keeps me dry when exploring the amazon, it packs down to a 10th of its size and is just phenomenal."

DESCRIPTION

Franklin is a winter fleece for the temperatures you actually live in — not the ones you train for. The main fabric is a 63% recycled wool blend, chosen over synthetic fleece for the way wool regulates heat and resists odour over a full day's wear.

Extrafine Merino wool, blended with cotton, forms the knit rib at the internal collar, cuffs and hem — the points of a garment that see the most contact and the most temperature loss. This is where Merino's fine fibre diameter earns its place: soft against skin, warm without bulk, and considerably more breathable than a synthetic equivalent.

An internal zip placket sits behind the main zip for added wind protection on the walk to the station or the school run in a Highland downpour. External zipped hand pockets and internal dump pockets carry keys, gloves and a phone without the weight pulling at the fabric. Sleeves are articulated for a natural range of movement, whether that's carrying shopping or hauling a kayak onto a roof rack.

At 0.75kg, Franklin sits as a mid layer or a layer on its own — from a UK winter through to the colder climates. It is built for living and travelling, not for the technical end of the mountain.

A garment’s warmth depends on individual tolerance, layering, and conditions like wind or humidity, allowing flexibility beyond its listed temperature range.

Breathability measurement refers to a fabric's ability to allow moisture vapor to pass through, indicating how comfortable it will be during wear. The RET (Resistance to Evaporative Heat Transfer) value is commonly used; lower RET values (0-6) indicate very high breathability, while higher values (above 20) mean poor breathability.

The second way that breathability can be measured is moisture vapour transmission rate (MVTR), given in milligrams per hour (mg/h), showing how much moisture can pass through in a set time frame. Higher MVTR values indicate better breathability, ensuring comfort by reducing moisture buildup.
