Who Are The Ice Breaker Merino 200 Oasis For?

The Merino 200 Oasis Long Sleeve Half Zip Thermal Top and Merino 200 Oasis Thermal Leggings provide excellent warmth to weight ratio with low bulk. Breathable and odour-resistant, Ice Breaker knows that quality lies in simplicity. If a clean-cut, soft, temperature regulative base layer is what you’re after, this is a good option for both men and women.

Materials and Construction

Year-round, Merino sheep reside up in the mountains in New Zealand being exposed to the most extreme weather conditions. Summer month’s peak up to 30degrees Celsius, whilst the temperatures drop to minus 10 in the winter months. Their wool is what makes all the difference, regulating their body temperatures to withstand the right temperature, which is exactly why it is such a good option when it comes to producing a base layer.

The merino fibres regulate the body temperatures in all-weathers, whilst sitting soft next to the skin and also being odour resistant. Made from 100% merino wool, the 200 Oasis Thermal Top and 200 Oasis Thermal Leggings will help you warm up when cold and cool down when needed.

Features

The base layer top comes with a half zip-neck design, gusseted underarms for mobility and comfort, offset shoulder seams to prevent friction and a drop tail hem for added coverage. As for the leggings, they’re also equipped with a gusset for mobility and comfort, and flatlock seams to prevent friction.
