What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I wore these on a shoulder season trail run when the mornings were still biting but the afternoons warmed up fast, and they never felt clammy. The merino blend breathes so well I forgot I had gloves on, and I could still check my watch without pulling them off."
Shoulder season mornings can trick you, cold enough for gloves at the trailhead but warm enough to regret them by mile three. The Merino 150 Sensor Liner from Backcountry solves that problem before it starts. Pull them on for an early bike ride or a dawn patrol lap on the skin track, and the lightweight merino blend wicks sweat as fast as you produce it, keeping your hands warm without ever feeling damp.
That performance comes from a thoughtful blend of merino wool, recycled polyester, and elastane, built to move with you through high output efforts. The fabric resists odor even after back to back days on the trail, and the printed touchscreen panels on the thumb and index finger mean you can glance at a map or snap a photo mid stride, no fumbling required.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Outdoor Research Alpine Merino 150 Glove work as a ski or hiking liner?
At 1.2 oz/34 g, this lightweight merino liner adds moisture-managing warmth beneath a shell, insulated glove, or mitt without much bulk. The 150G construction also suits high-output activity in cool conditions.What materials make up the Alpine Merino 150 Glove?
The main stretch knit is 53% merino wool, 42% polyester, and 5% elastane; the 150G cuff is 74% nylon and 26% elastane. This blend balances stretch and dexterity with lightweight warmth.How should I choose a size in the Outdoor Research Alpine Merino 150 Glove?
Choose by hand circumference at the knuckles, excluding the thumb: sizes run from XS at 7–7½ inches to XXL at 9½–10 inches. If your measurement falls between sizes, use the larger hand measurement as your guide.Can the Alpine Merino 150 Glove handle wet snow or rain on its own?
It has no waterproof membrane or waterproof rating, so use it beneath a waterproof outer glove for wet snow or rain. The 150-weight merino knit can help retain warmth when damp, but this liner is intended for moisture management, not standalone weather protection.Is the Alpine Merino 150 Glove suitable for high-output activities like cycling or skinning?
Yes. Its 1.2 oz/34 g weight and stretch-knit construction keep bulk low for pole grip and other dexterous tasks, while the breathable 150G fabric suits active use in cool conditions.
