Frequently asked questions

How should I layer for cold weather?

Build from the skin out: start with a moisture-managing base layer, add a fleece or heavy shirt for insulation, then finish with a windproof soft shell or an insulated jacket based on temperature and activity level.

What’s the difference between a soft shell and an insulated jacket?

A soft shell focuses on blocking wind and shedding light weather while staying flexible and breathable; an insulated jacket is built to hold heat when you’re moving slower, sitting longer, or dealing with colder air.

Are Nano Wool™ base layers good for all-day wear?

Yes. Merino-based fabrics are known for comfort against the skin and odor control, which makes them a strong choice for long shifts, travel days, and extended time outdoors.

How do Origin boots fit?

Fit can vary by model and sock thickness. If you’re between sizes or plan to wear heavier wool socks in winter, sizing up a half size is often the safer move.

How do I care for wool layers and outerwear?

Follow the garment’s care label. In general, use a gentle wash cycle with cold water when needed and air dry to help maintain shape and performance over time.

What makes Origin cold-weather gear different?

It’s built around practical capability—materials that perform, construction that holds up, and products designed to be used hard, season after season.
