Nature's Supermaterial
Ditch the toxic chemicals, feel less sweaty, and stay fresh with merino wool activewear.

DREAM Shorts - 540% Funded on Kickstarter
We took your favorite active shorts and made them 30x better with the world’s first Nuyarn® merino wool liner.
30x Less Sweaty
Merino wool can absorb and release up to 30x more sweat vapor than synthetics, while staying dry against your skin. This is a game-changer in keeping you dry, comfortable, and chafe-free.
Temperature Regulating
Cools When You’re Hot, Warms When You’re Cold. Merino wool's advanced biology keeps you perfectly temperature-regulated through summer and winter workouts.
Naturally Anti-Odor
Do Less Laundry, Travel Lighter. Astronauts wear the same merino wool clothes for weeks because of its space-saving, antibacterial properties. When you’re traveling with the DREAM shorts, you can pack lighter, check less luggage, and do less laundry.
Better for Your Boys
Most synthetic liners are treated with PFAS (forever chemicals), which have been linked to reproductive issues, cancer, and other diseases. Merino wool is naturally even more moisture-wicking and odor-resistant than PFAS-treated fabrics, so we never have to use these harmful chemicals (in our liner nor our outer).
Enhanced by Nuyarn®
We partnered with Nuyarn® to create the world's first performance merino liner. Compared to conventional ring spun merino wool fabrics, Nuyarn® is 8.8x more durable, 5x faster drying, and 85% more elastic.* Our liner is built-to-last; it keeps you even more dry and comfortable; and it is exceptionally form-fitting.
*Independently verified by Intertek® Vietnam and AgResearch, New Zealand when compared to ring spun 100% merino wool.

Evolved in North Africa, Refined in New Zealand
Merino wool traces its origins back to African desert sheep that thrived in extreme conditions, from scorching 100-degree summers to freezing 0-degree winters. These sheep evolved an ultra-fine wool that cooled them down in the heat and warmed them up in the cold. Merino sheep were later brought to New Zealand, a similarly extreme environment where they thrived. Today, the finest and most sustainably sourced merino wool in the world comes from New Zealand. This is where Avala’s origin story began.
