What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"Perfect for skiing or winter running, these 3/4 leggings keep shins clear for ski boots while mapping warmth and venting exactly where it counts. The waistband is snug so they don't sag, and merino blend means fewer post-ride odors."Intraknit Thermal Merino Base Layer 3/4 Bottom is built for cold-weather movement, blending naturally thermoregulating merino wool with stretchy, shape-holding synthetic fibers. Strategic mesh zones boost ventilation to keep moisture moving, and the 3/4 leg cuts down bulk and bunching whether lapping lifts or snowshoeing steep trails. The slim fit hugs without restriction and slips easily under snow pants, while the tight-knit waistband keeps the base in place through climbs, descents, and long apres. Designed for the athlete who expects dry comfort and odor control winter after winter.
