Base layer shirt Odlo BL TOP Merino 200 long-sleeve crew neck – Merino wool, Size S, Black

Odlo BL TOP Merino 200 long-sleeve crew neck is a women's base layer shirt made from merino wool designed to sit close to the skin and provide thermal regulation during outdoor activities and everyday cold-weather use. The size S garment in black offers natural moisture management and soft next-to-skin comfort typical of merino fibre, intended as a first layer for hiking, skiing, running or layered everyday wear. Regular inspection of the garment condition is recommended to maintain performance.

Advantages

The merino wool construction provides natural temperature regulation, breathability and odor resistance while remaining soft against the skin. The crew neck and long sleeves deliver full torso and arm coverage for improved insulation and comfort. Lightweight knit with thermal properties allows freedom of movement and can be combined with mid and outer layers for extended protection in cold conditions.

Suitable for

• Hiking and trekking in cool to cold weather
• Skiing and winter sports as a first base layer
• Running or jogging in cold conditions
• Everyday use as a thermal underlayer beneath casual clothing

When it may not be suitable

This merino base layer is not intended as a waterproof or windproof outer shell; it provides insulation and moisture regulation but will not block heavy rain or strong wind on its own. For very wet conditions or high-intensity activities where rapid drying is required, synthetic technical layers may perform better in terms of quick-drying.

• Colour: Black

How to use

Wear the Odlo Merino 200 as the first layer directly against the skin to take advantage of merino wool's natural moisture-wicking and insulating properties. Combine with a mid layer for additional warmth and an outer shell for wind or water protection as required by conditions. Follow the garment care instructions to preserve fibre performance and shape.

What to consider before purchase

• Choose the correct size to ensure a close-to-skin fit for efficient thermal regulation.
• Consider layering needs: this is a thermal base layer, not an outer shell.
• Assess activity type and expected weather (wet-weather needs may call for synthetic or treated layers).
• Check and maintain garment condition regularly to keep insulating performance.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use this Odlo Merino 200 base layer as the first garment layer during cool to cold activities; pair it with breathable mid-layers for insulation and a waterproof outer layer when needed. Regularly inspect and follow care instructions to prolong the garment's natural properties.
