Description
The Paeroa Quarter Zip brings together everything at the heart of Norsewear: our heritage in NZ wool, our commitment to local manufacturing, and a long history of making gear built to last. While we’re best known for socks, locally made woollen apparel has been part of our story since the NZ ski team wore Norsewear jerseys at the 1972 Winter Olympics right through to the late ’90s when we first developed dual layer lightweight 100% merino garments.
With renewed demand for NZ-made woollen clothing, we’re bringing back a favourite. Made right here in New Zealand, this modern re-issue of the legendary Norsewear Paeroa uses our yarn spun from 100% traceable, Wool Integrity NZ certified, 23-micron South Island wool. It's lighter than your average farmer jersey. Save this one for date night.

Can you machine wash Norsewear Merino socks?
Yes, Norsewear Merino socks are machine washable. We recommend a warm or cold gentle cycle and tumble drying on low, or line drying. Avoid bleach and dry cleaning. Merino wool is naturally resilient to odour and can be worn multiple times before washing.

What is the difference between the Norsewear Expedition Cold Weather and Expedition Temperate socks?
The Expedition Cold Weather sock is heavier-weight, designed for colder temperatures and providing maximum warmth and cushioning. The Expedition Temperate is lighter — suited to milder conditions and lower-altitude activities. Both are developed from the NZ Defence Force design brief. If you're tramping in winter or above the snowline, choose Cold Weather. For three-season use or summer hunting, Temperate is the better fit.
