What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I reach for these bottoms almost every day during winter. They're soft, warm, and regulate temperature better than any synthetic layer I've tried. The merino blend keeps odors in check, and the high waistband never bunches under my bibs. Bonus points for the phone pocket-it's surprisingly useful during parking lot transitions."When our days start below freezing and end somewhere above the treeline, we need a base layer that keeps pace. The Merino Baselayer Bottom is our go-to for breathable warmth, made with an interlock merino blend that regulates body temperature, wicks moisture, and resists odor-all while feeling soft against the skin. Whether we're lapping powder runs, skinning uphill, or layering up for a long tour, this bottom keeps us warm and dry without overheating. Built with an ultra-soft waistband and articulated seams, it moves with us naturally through every ascent and descent. A form-fitting yoke at the back adds shape without restriction, while a low-profile cell phone pocket gives us a discreet place to stash essentials on the go. From first chair to last hike, this base layer stays comfortable, functional, and ready for whatever's next.
