The fusion of nature and technology comes together in this crew-neck short-sleeve Merino wool shirt, soft, lightweight, and seamless. Wearing it feels like a warm, gentle embrace. It ensures freedom of movement and excellent comfort against the skin (non-itchy). Weighing just 120 grams, this shirt delivers nearly double its weight in heat retention.
The extra-fine Merino wool crew-neck short-sleeve shirt is a soft and warm technical garment. Against the skin, it features polypropylene (our BTX fiber), which provides a dry effect and quickly wicks away sweat. The comfortable raglan sleeve cut and "seamless" technology make this thermal base layer perfect not only for cycling but also for all outdoor winter sports.
You can wear the Calore Merino wool short-sleeved base layer as a first layer in contact with the skin (combined with other technical garments) on days when temperatures range from -10° to +15°. We recommend wearing this garment when temperature is within the range specified above. But to decide what will meet your needs, which will vary depending on the sport, the climatic conditions and your own temperature regulation, you should evaluate what is the average temperature that you will encounter.
