If you’re reading this, you probably know that the right base layer can make or break a day on the mountain.
The Merino Base layer combines the technical capabilities of a high-performance base layer with timeless, minimalist styling. The natural stretch of Merino wool offers a snug fit that moves with you, while its moisture-wicking properties keep you dry during high-output efforts. With its clean design and neutral tones, it’s as comfortable layered under a shell on stormy backcountry tours as it is on its own for a cool-weather hike.
We’ll leave the merino vs synthetic debate to you, but when it comes to the former — this is as good as it gets, offering exceptional comfort and performance. Uruguayan Merino wool is prized for its unmatched softness, with fine fibers measuring just 19,5 microns, making it ideal for garments worn close to the skin. Raised on rolling grasslands using low-intensity, free-range farming methods, this wool is as ethical as it is luxurious. It’s entirely mulesing-free and sustainably sourced, reflecting the highest standards of animal welfare and environmental care.
The result is a base layer that excels in softness, durability, and adaptability. Lightweight and breathable, it regulates body temperature effortlessly across seasons, from cold winter ascents to warm spring tours. This versatility, combined with the timeless quality of Uruguayan Merino wool, ensures it performs just as well on long ski tours as it does during early-morning summer hikes.
