SmartWool is an American company founded by New England ski instructors Peter and Patty Duke in Steamboat Springs, Colorado in 1994 and acquired by the Timberland Company in 2005.〔Kelly Bastone, (2005: Going global ), ''Steamboat Springs on the Move: Official Business and Relocation Guide for the Yampa Valley'', 2005. Retrieved April 26, 2007〕〔Paul McHugh, (Once mighty wool makes comeback in outdoor gear ), ''San Francisco Chronicle'', November 23, 2006. Retrieved April 26, 2007.〕〔SEC Info, (Timberland Press Release ), November 7, 2005. Retrieved April 26, 2007.〕 The company makes eponymous products primarily from treated merino wool.〔Unknown author, (Efficient Merino Wool Clothing by SmartWool ), Metaefficient, unknown date. Retrieved April 26, 2007.〕 SmartWool claims that this proprietary treatment makes its products itch-free and resistant to shrinking.〔Richard Bumgardner, (Smartwool Light Hiker Socks Product Review ), walking.about.com, unknown date. Retrieved April 26, 2007.〕 SmartWool is also claimed to have moisture-wicking performance and odor-reducing, anti-microbial properties; it is thus marketed primarily as performance apparel.〔 Reviews for SmartWool products are typically found in the context of equipment for hiking and other outdoor activities.〔Dave Hunter, (Smartwool Base Layers: Men's Lightweight Crew and Lightweight Bottoms ), ''Rock + Run'', October 26, 2004.

In 2005, SmartWool implemented the requirement that its New Zealand wool suppliers no longer practice mulesing.〔Justin Thomas, (Smartwool requires wool suppliers to end "mulesing" ), treehugger.com, October 8, 2005. Retrieved April 26, 2007.〕 In 2010, SmartWool signed a contract to exclusively source its Merino wool from the New Zealand Merino Company.〔()〕
