This mid-weight duo layer Terramar Ultra Merino turtleneck consists of a fully synthetic inside and Merino blend face. The bi-layer construction creates an air pocket in-between both layers for additional insulation and thermal regulation. The synthetic backside helps to push sweat and moisture vapors to the surface to keep the wearer dry and comfortable. Merino wool is natures best at thermal regulation and odor control. Our Merino wool is blended with nylon for an added degree of durability. Great on its own or worn with the Ultra Merino Pant.
A recreational skier who skis for fitness will wear less and lighter layers than someone who’s touring. If you’re too hot or too cold, try altering your layers, by wearing thinner or thicker ones, to suit the day’s conditions, and then, remove or add a layer on the trail if necessary.
Layering is the key to cold weather comfort. Most people understand the idea of layering their clothing for outdoor activity: first, the wicking layer; second, the insulation layer and third the wind and weather layer. The key to making it work for you just takes a little practice. A comment we often hear is that, once out on the trail for 10-15 minutes, people are too hot! What a great problem: to be too hot when you’re outside in the winter! Well, fortunately, it’s never been easier to lighten up your layers.
