Pearl Izumi Long Sleeve Merino Base Layer - Phantom Grey

The key to staying comfortable on cold days is staying dry. Pearl Izumi has used a construction method called plating to place recycled polyester technical fibers next to skin on their responsibly sourced Merino wool, long-sleeve base layer. By putting polyester next to the rider’s skin, it transports moisture away to the Merino layer where it can evaporate even as the wool acts as insulation as well as creating a more durable fabric. The base layer uses a set-in sleeve design for a versatile form-following fit to make layering easy.
