Warm without overheating

Wore these under shell pants on a cold hike and they kept me warm without feeling clammy on the uphill. The merino feels soft, not scratchy.

Easy layering piece

The slim fit layers easily under hiking pants and doesn’t bunch up around my boots. Great for chilly mornings at camp.

Reliable midweight baselayer

Comfortable for long travel days and cold-weather walks. I’d call the warmth solid midweight rather than expedition-level heavy.
