		<description>Jill,

Merrell's Bio-Blend, as far as I know, is a manufacturing "process" associated with either Merino Wool or Organic Cotton - it's their stamp that the article you're buying has taken a "different route" than standard material. Sports companies are increasingly improving the way they are a manufacturing their goods, making them more eco-friendly, which I think is a great step in the right direction.

Thanks for your feedback !

		<description>But what exactly does Bio Blend mean? As a consumer, that's what I want to know. That whole quoted graph is straight out of Merrell's marketing department. It's sounds like jargon; I don't hear them saying that bio-blend is actually made from certified organic wool. Is it?</description>
