Next-to-Skin Layer

Best Use: All Conditions OutdoorGear has introduced the first complete line of gloves totally effective in all hunting conditions and temperatures. The ULTRA Merino 210 Glove is the base-layer in the Glove Layering System, and can be worn alone for light protection during early season hunts or layered under other gloves to provide additional warmth in extreme 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. The unique ULTRA Merino 210 base layer fabric knits ULTRA Merino wool on the outer layer of the fabric, and polyester fabric on inside, allowing for a soft brushed fleece against the skin while maintaining all of the natural benefits of merino wool.

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.

The men’s Mesa short-sleeve hunting shirt is ideal for hot-weather hunts and outdoor activities while ventilation, durability, and sun protection are vital. Typical woven fabric shirts lack breathability, so venting is key for hunting and hiking, however, traditional venting is often restricted while wearing a pack. With the hunter in mind, we optimized the vented opening locations, so they fully operate even while wearing a pack. The mesh-lined vents located on the center back and rear shoulders provide excellent breathability, while the laser vented underarm and relaxed fit promote airflow throughout the garment. The 4-way stretch polyester fabric feels comfortable next to skin, wicks moisture, and offers unrestricted movement. Anti-odor treated, it keeps odor-causing bacteria from growing during extended periods of wear. Features include dedicated chest pockets for your sunglasses and accessories help keep you well organized.
