Performance wool producer Nuyarn Technologies has teamed up with Ugg to supply linings for its Otzo Clog. 

Through its spinning technology, New Zealand-based Nuyarn drafts superfine merino wool around performance filaments, rather than twisting them, which results in ultralightweight and durable yarns. (Read more about the technique through Sportstextiles’ interview with founder Andy Wynne.)

Mr Wynne said: “We are thrilled to see Nuyarn applied to a globally recognized brand like Ugg. Our goal has always been to prove that natural fibres can outperform synthetics when engineered correctly.”

The Otzo Clog uses Responsible Wool Standard (RWS) certified wool, ensuring animal welfare and land management standards are also met.
