Description

Ski tours, extended backpacking trips, climbing – this is an exceptionally versatile base layer you’ll go to for anything outdoors. Made from 240gsm Merino wool, it naturally regulates thermal comfort, resists odours and static, and feels comfortable next to your skin. The 18.5-micron fibres are wrapped around a nylon core for durability. The fit keeps the wool close to your body for maximum effectiveness, elastane fibres add stretch and hold the fit, and articulated patterning gives you freedom to move.

Arc'teryx Layering Guide

Layers are the instruments of keeping you dry, warm and using your energy efficiently. Put into the right systems, a good sequence of layers provides you with weather protection, moves moisture away from your skin, conserves or dissipates heat, and does this in the least amount of time.
