Stay Warm as a Bunny With Angora Long Johns
Brrr! You may be lucky enough to live in one of the warm parts of the country – but if you’re from the Midwest or another of our cooler regions you may be wondering if Old Man Winter is ever going to leave. Or whether you’ll ever feel warm again.
There may not be anything you can do about winter weather, but there’s no reason not to keep toasty warm, even without raising your heating bill. The secret is to dress in layers. And the most important layer is the one right next to your skin.
Long johns may seem old-fashioned, but if you’re concerned about comfort and the environment, they should rank high on your list of must-haves for your wardrobe. Long underwear traps a layer of air right next to your skin, preserving body heat and allowing you to stay comfortable even with the thermostat set low – good for you and good for the earth.
Fortunately, long underwear doesn’t have to be bulky, itchy or made of polyester. Just ask the folks at Angora Rabbit Thermal Underwear. They specialize in long underwear made from the fur of their namesake – the angora rabbit!
Rabbit wool has a number of special properties that make it an ideal fiber for that vital wintertime first layer of clothing:
• It’s seven times warmer than ordinary sheep’s wool
• It’s soft and doesn’t itch
• Angora will keep you warm even if it gets wet (so go ahead and work up a sweat, winter sports enthusiasts!)
• It’s breathable and lets you cool down when you go inside
• Many people with sensitive skin can tolerate rabbit wool
• It can help people with joint and back pain conditions such as carpal tunnel and arthritis
Angora Rabbit carries a full line of thermal underwear in a 40/60 angora/cotton blend for men and women, available in both full and half lengths. They also offer socks and specialty joint warming items for wrists, knees, lower back, shoulders and other arthritis-prone body parts. Although their long johns are pricier than what you’d pay in your local department store, the extra warmth and comfort is sure to be appreciated by anyone who suffers from wintertime cold. (And if it lets you save on your heating bills, who’s to say the long underwear isn’t the cheaper option?) Still not sure? Angora Rabbit offers a 30-day no-risk trial period, so you can see for yourself what a difference an effective underlayer makes to your wintertime comfort.
Oh, and one more thing – Angora Rabbit buys their fiber only from breeders who treat their rabbits humanely. So you can stay warm this winter and the next without guilt or worry!
