About Lamington's Merino Wool
Merino is very popular:
- unique temperature regulating qualities
- incredibly soft
- kind to delicate skin
- durable & pure
When worn against the skin, merino has an excellent ability to regulate temperature providing warmth, without overheating your loved ones.
Merino also has the natural ability to breathe and draw moisture (sweat) away from the skin.
This provides further benefits in summer by reducing the humidity between skin and garment, giving your child a very comfortable wear.
About Lamington, The Business:
Lamington is owned and operated by Auckland-based Sarah Teensma. A mother herself with two little girls, she is no stranger to what parents need.
Fed up with baby socks that wouldn't stay on and socks that were just too short she came up with Sock-ings; gorgeous knee-high, merino wool socks that won't fall down. No more cold little toes for our kiwi babes.
Lamington was launched in 2005 at the Auckland Parent & Child Show. It began with a range of 8 designer T-shirts for age 3 months through to 3 years but it was socks that really took off. The range was met with overwhelming enthusiasm which led to the wider market. Lamington is now stocked in over fifty retail outlets throughout New Zealand including Gift Shops, Galleries and Baby Boutiques as well as some wonderful online stores.
All Lamington products are proudly New Zealand made using only the best products and manufacturers.
