Ranked #494 - Men's Midweight Long Underwear - Tops

I am a 5-10 tall woman, who sometimes buys mens for better length fit. This top worked great for me for skiing. I actually layered it on top of another excellent merino midweight (Ibex Zepher womens) on colder days without anything else underneath my breathable ski jacket. I find that important to reap the full benefit. If I layer a polartec sweater on top of the wool base, it does not breathe as well as 2 wool layers... not shocking, I suppose:-)

The polartec will stop your merino working properly as it doesn't breathe and won't manage the sweat either. For best results layer merino on merino with just a breathable jacket - leave off the stinky synthetics :-)
