This shirt is possibly even more of a mid than base layer, that can handle real abuse. What sets this base layer apart is its construction: made from 100% responsibly sourced Merino wool, it boasts a 250-g/m² interlock knit that delivers substantial insulation. The updated design improves both fit and functionality, with shoulder panels that eliminate seam irritation and flatlock seams to prevent chafing during movement. This thoughtful design allows you to focus on your activity without distraction.

Merino wool’s unique properties make this base layer exceptional. Merino naturally regulates temperature, wicks moisture, and resists odors, keeping you warm even when wet while maintaining freshness all day. Known for its softness and durability, Merino wool is gentle on the skin and doesn’t itch like traditional wool, offering a cozy, low-maintenance choice for any cold-weather gear collection
