Dress for a day outside

Three adaptable layers for changing mountain weather.

Base layer

Choose a moisture-managing layer next to skin. Our demo Merino Base Layer ($89) blends 80% merino with 20% nylon. Avoid relying on cotton in cold, wet conditions.

Insulate and protect

Add an insulating midlayer and a shell that protects against wind and precipitation. Carry an extra layer and adjust clothing before getting sweaty or chilled.

Hands and feet

Use dry ski socks, gloves and weather-appropriate coverage. Avoid cramming multiple thick socks into fitted boots. Retreat indoors if you cannot stay warm.
