Product Description

At-a-glance: Midweight 200gsm 100% Merino long sleeve with a men's-specific fit and extended back coverage.

Best for: Cold-weather hiking, skiing and everyday winter layering.

Made from extra-fine, mulesing-free Merino wool, this layer balances warmth with breathability while naturally managing moisture and odour. The ribbed knit stretches with movement, flat seams reduce friction and the longer back stays covered beneath a rucksack or outer shell.

Choose this version when you want the pure-Merino feel and greater winter warmth. For a lighter, smoother blend, see the Men's Merino-Tencel Long Sleeve Base Layer.

FAQs

How does it compare to the Merino-Tencel version?
This is warmer and heavier at 200gsm—better for cold winter days. The Tencel blend is lighter and smoother for shoulder-season use.
Will it itch?
Extra-fine Merino has a finer fibre diameter than standard wool, which significantly reduces next-to-skin prickling.
Can I wear it as a standalone top?
Yes—the ribbed knit and longer back make it comfortable worn alone or as a base layer.
How do I wash it?
Machine wash on a delicate cycle at 30°C and dry flat to maintain shape and softness.

Why Choose Merino Wool?

Merino Wool provides one of the best warmth-to-weight ratios of any base layer, naturally regulating temperature and resisting odors, making it an essential layer for all-day outdoor comfort.
