Hunting Base Layer Tops

Best Use: All Conditions The ULTRA Merino 120 LT answers OutdoorGear’s never-ending challenge of reducing weight, while improving durability. OutdoorGear partnered with Nuyarn® to engineer merino wool sourced from New Zealand that was lighter than the 125 g/m² predecessor, yet stronger. Merino wool as a natural fiber excels at thermoregulation and odor resistance, which are critical for long-duration hunts. Without sacrificing performance or comfort of the natural softness from the 17.5-micron fiber, the new 120 g/m² fabric uses a thicker nylon yarn core through Nuyarn technology, creating higher dimensional stability, improved regain, and added durability. The result is the lightest and toughest in the industry.

Best Use: All Conditions Developed in New Zealand, Nuyarn technology has revolutionized the Merino wool market. Taking the twist out of the yarn has produced a fabric with higher stretch and recovery, better moisture management, and greater warmth. It is stronger than the average Merino wool on the market, yet boasts the same natural odor resistance and comfort. OutdoorGear's ULTRA Merino 145 is a lightweight, incredibly comfortable, and durable blend of wool and nylon providing a next to skin or layering option for the highly active hunter. The ultra fine 17.5 micron Merino wool takes the edge off in cool conditions, while eyelet knit side panels provide maximum breathability. The Zip design adds heat release and ventilation capabilities while the stand collar adds to its comfort and concealment.
