Product Description

Features

  • A midweight knit retains warmth while managing moisture through stop-start mountain days.
  • Seamless construction removes the main body seams that can cause chafing and pressure beneath rucksack straps, harnesses and technical ski layers; it does not mean there are no seams anywhere.

Details & fit

  • Men's-specific fit. Fabric weight: 220gsm.
  • Stated temperature range: −5°C to −10°C, for cold alpine conditions.
  • Heavier than the 200gsm 100% Merino base layer, with a construction focused on low-friction alpine and ski layering.
  • Designed in Scotland. Made in the EU.

Care

  • Machine wash at 30°C. Dry flat to maintain the knit structure and Merino softness.

A good base layer. Recommend base two high output fell runs of 20 and 16 miles. High output In cold and then damp conditions. The top performed well being wet but still a good level of warmth. Never felt drenched or heavy. Very light a d form fitting. Too early to tell on durability but washed twice and no shrinkage. Love the arm fitting. Collar could be a little higher as shoulder straps from running vests sit near the neck. Another good product.

Thanks for the detailed feedback — really appreciated.

Great to hear it performed well on high-output fell runs in cold, damp conditions, and that it stayed warm without feeling heavy when wet. That’s exactly what we design our Merino base layers to do.

Helpful note on the collar height with running vests too — feedback like this genuinely helps guide future refinements & will be shared for the next production. Thanks again for putting it through proper miles.
