Rewoolution: what you'll find at Ski Sises and how to choose the right merino piece

Rewoolution makes merino wool sportswear and states that production is 100% made in Italy. In corporate terms, it is subject to the management and coordination of Reda Holding. The Rewoolution selection at Ski Sises brings together 19 items for men and women: short- and long-sleeved t-shirts, a polo, a top, trousers and leggings. Before you look at colors, decide where you will wear the piece most often. Under a fleece in winter, on its own during a spring hike, or instead of a cotton polo for work. The fabric weight, the neckline and the size all depend on that answer.

Rewoolution and Reda: what you actually read in the product pages

Anyone searching for "reda rewoolution" usually wants to understand the relationship between the two names. The brand's official page explains it this way: Rewoolution S.r.l. is a single-shareholder company, subject to the management and coordination of Reda Holding S.p.A. The Reda name also appears in the product pages, under the fabric entry. Dale, Ava, the Plathon polo and the women's LS Half Zip are listed as 100% Reda Active® Merino Jersey. Greenary, S/S Sunset, Trick Charcoal, the men's LS Half Zip and the Performance Leggings, on the other hand, list ZQ Merino wool.

When choosing, though, the fabric label matters little: every piece in the selection is described as merino wool. Three other details change how you will use it. The weight, when the product page lists it. The type of neckline. And how close to the body the garment is meant to sit.

What's in the Rewoolution selection at Ski Sises

Men

The largest group is the solid-color short-sleeved t-shirts: green Greenary, yellow S/S Sunset and grey Trick Charcoal. The Dale Merino 140, in Peacock, has a contrast collar and cuffs and a logo patch. Among the long sleeves are the grey Tommy and the blue LS Half Zip. The half zip lets you open the neck on a climb without taking anything off. Rounding out the men's range are the Plathon Polo 190, in Peacock and Dark Grey, and the black Trail Trousers. The Trail product page presents them for hiking and sports activity and highlights freedom of movement.

Women

The black SS Heaven and pink SS Rose t-shirts are the most essential. The black Ali is in 190 g/m² jersey. The Ava Merino 140 has a deep neckline and a relaxed fit, in three colors: Pink Ray, Dark Green and Island Green. The LS Half Zips, white and black, are the long sleeves with a zip. The Sunny Top has a round neckline and wide armholes. The black Performance Leggings have a close fit. Before you fall in love with a color, check the product page to see which sizes are available.

Rewoolution merino at 140 or 190 g/m²: which weight do you need

Weight tells you how many grams of fabric there are in a square meter. On a merino top, it is the figure that says the most about how the piece will feel when worn. In the selection, four models state it. Dale and Ava are 140 g/m², while the Plathon polo and Ali are 190 g/m².

The product pages for the two 140 don't say the same thing. The Dale is described as underwear for outdoor sports in winter and as a single layer the rest of the year. The Ava is described as a base layer both in winter and in the other seasons, with a particularly light fabric.

A 140 makes sense under a fleece or a jacket, when you don't want extra bulk once you zip up. A 190 has more fabric and holds up better on its own, for example as a polo to wear all day at the office. Keep the trade-off in mind. A 140 worn alone on a windy day gives you little protection. A 190 under two layers can end up warmer than you need when you're moving. Neither replaces an insulating layer.

The other models don't list their weight on the product page. If it's the deciding factor for you, ask before ordering: the photo isn't enough to tell.

Rewoolution for sport: where merino helps and where it doesn't

The product pages keep coming back to three qualities: temperature regulation, moisture management and odor control. You notice them when you wear the same garment for many hours. That happens on a hike that starts in the cool of the morning and ends in the midday sun, or on a weekend with a small pack and few spare shirts. On the LS Half Zip, the zip does its job right there: you open it as you climb and close it when you stop at the top. The Leggins Performance are presented for training and for outdoor outings in every season.

The limits need to be stated clearly. A Rewoolution garment is the layer next to your skin or a single layer. Against rain and wind you need a shell, and there isn't one in this selection. If you do an hour at the gym a couple of times a month, a merino shirt may be more than you need. The difference shows mostly on long outings and on consecutive days.

Rewoolution sizes: two measurements to take before ordering

Rewoolution has two size guides in centimeters. The women's one runs from XS to XL and lists bust, waist and hips. The men's one runs from S to XXL and lists chest, waist and hips. Two rows for reference: in the women's guide, the S corresponds to a bust of 83-88 cm, waist 65-70 cm and hips 87-92 cm. In the men's guide, the M corresponds to a chest of 91-96 cm, waist 77-82 cm and hips 99-104 cm.

Don't trust the letter you wear with other brands. Take a soft tape measure and measure your chest or bust at the widest point, your waist at the narrowest point, your hips at the fullest point. The tape should rest against you without squeezing. Then compare the numbers with the chart.

If you fall between two sizes, decide based on how you'll use it. A base layer works when it stays close to the skin, so the smaller size is often the better choice. Here's an example: your chest is right at the upper limit of the M range and you want to wear the Plathon polo on its own, with a bit of room to breathe. In that case it makes sense to consider the size up. For the Leggins Performance, which are close-fitting, look at your hips first and then your waist. The Ava, with its relaxed fit, leaves more margin. The differences between the individual t-shirts and the right way to wash them are explained in the guide to fit and care of Rewoolution merino t-shirts.

The Rewoolution polo in the city: an outfit in gray, blue and black

Rewoolution isn't just trail gear. A merino polo also works well in the city on cool days. This pairing starts with the Plathon Polo 190 Men's Dark Grey, a three-button polo with a ribbed collar and sleeve trim in two parallel stripes. The dark grey is the center of the palette. The Fine Cord Waiter Men's Dark Navy Trousers by Service Works and the Soft Shell Barrow Men's Melton Blue Jacket by Woolrich stay in blue and leave the spotlight to the polo. The Cloud 6 Waterproof Men's Black/Black Shoes by On Running and the Bird Head Toque Orca Hat by Arc'Teryx finish the look in black.

If you're buying the polo to wear it this way, try it on with the jacket zipped over it. The collar should stay in place and your shoulders shouldn't pull when you raise your arms.

Rewoolution discount code and stores: what you can check

Part of the searches for Rewoolution is about discount codes or promo codes. You won't find any in this guide, because we have none to share with you. If a site promises one without saying where and until when it's valid, treat it with caution. The conditions at Ski Sises, on the other hand, can be checked: free shipping in Italy over 50 € and returns that can be requested within 14 days of receipt. If you're also considering an outlet, the criteria for comparing it with the store are in the article on how to evaluate a purchase at the Reda Rewoolution outlet.

For anyone searching "Rewoolution stores": Ski Sises is a family business in Biella, with an artisan history that began in 1920, and it also sells online. When you're torn between two sizes, trying them on settles it faster than any chart. For questions before or after your purchase, customer service is available at +39 015 405464 and at servizioclienti@skisises.it.

The rule for choosing your first piece

If the piece will sit under other layers, start from 140 gsm. If you'll wear it on its own, look at 190 gsm. In both cases, your size comes from the tape measure, not from habit. With weight and measurements in hand, you can open the Rewoolution collection and narrow the comparison down to one or two models.

FAQ

Is Rewoolution a Reda brand?

Yes, at the corporate level. On the brand's official page, Rewoolution S.r.l. appears as a single-member company, subject to the direction and coordination of Reda Holding S.p.A. Several Rewoolution pieces sold by Ski Sises, such as the Plathon polo 190 and the Dale and Ava 140 t-shirts, list 100% Reda Active® Merino Jersey fabric on the product page. The brand also states that production is 100% made in Italy.

How do I choose my Rewoolution men's size if I'm between two sizes?

In the Rewoolution men's size guide, which runs from S to XXL, the M covers a chest of 91-96 cm, a waist of 77-82 cm and hips of 99-104 cm. Start with your chest, then check waist and hips: if either measurement falls outside the range, compare the next size up. For a base layer worn next to the skin, stick with the size indicated by your chest; for a polo worn on its own, with more room around the body, consider going up a size.

How do you read the Rewoolution women's size guide?

The Rewoolution women's guide runs from XS to XL and lists bust, waist and hips in centimeters. For example, the S corresponds to a bust of 83-88 cm, a waist of 65-70 cm and hips of 87-92 cm. Measure all three circumferences with a soft tape measure and choose the size that covers them. If you pick the Performance Leggings, which have a close fit, prioritize your hips.

Can a Rewoolution merino 140 t-shirt be worn in summer?

It depends on the model. The product page for the men's Dale Merino 140 t-shirt describes it as underwear for outdoor sports in winter and as a single layer the rest of the year. The women's Ava Merino 140 is described as a base layer for all seasons, with an especially light and breathable fabric. On its own, neither protects against wind or rain. If you need a garment with more fabric to wear on its own in town, compare it with the Plathon polo at 190 g/m².

Is there a Rewoolution discount code valid at Ski Sises?

There are no Rewoolution discount codes to report in this guide. The reference price is the one shown on the product page at the time you place your order. At Ski Sises you can check free shipping in Italy on orders over 50 € and returns that can be requested within 14 days of receipt.
