Very warm two-layer XC-suit with merino wool on the outside and Wool Thermo wool mesh on the inside. The combined wool mesh and wool construction gives an impressive warmth-to-weight ratio. The inner mesh layer has few contact points against the skin. Cells in the mesh trap warm air, which is the secret to the superb insulating performance. During high physical activity, perspiration vapour is transported away from the body to the wool exterior, which absorbs and evaporates the moisture further and forms an insulating layer over the mesh cells.Arctic garments are suitable for many different outdoor activities and people in tough professions. Worn by the Norwegian military and polar expedition teams, Arctic baselayers will keep you warm and dry in the harshest conditions. The garments are also real cozy indoors when the weather is cold. Arctic has been awarded the Norwegian Textile Industry’s Innovation prize and frequently receives the highest score in brand comparison tests.Product FeaturesSize/Fit: Regular3/4 neckRaglan sleevesCuffs with thumbholes that provide extra hand warmth and prevents the fabric from riding up during activity.Material: Merino wool reinforced with polyamide for increased durability.Flat seams that don’t chafe.Soft, comfortable, and itch-free.Mesh construction insulates during low activity and wicks moisture during high activity.
