As reported by German trade magazine SAZ Sport, Super Natural is starting a cooperation with the mountaineering school Bergschule Kleinwalsertal. Super Natural is a brand selling first layers and apparel made of merino wool and technical fabrics and was launched in Europe in 2012 by Shanghai Challenge Textile, a Chinese manufacturer that also supplies several other brands including Icebreaker. Super Natural Europe, based in Munich, Germany, signed the deal. Starting this summer, the brand will equip the roughly 90 guides and employees with functional sports underwear and apparel. The Bergschule Kleinwalsertal was opened 45 years ago and offers guided hikes, climbing trips, canyoning and mountain bike tours in summer as well as ski, snowshoe and freeride skiing tours in the winter in the Allgäu Alps and the Vorarlberg region.
