A heavyweight merino base layer top with a unique jacquard pattern fabric, the Merino 250 Vertex Long Sleeve Half Zip Snow Guide is a go-to layering piece for skiing, snowshoeing and other cold-weather pursuits. The super soft and breathable 250gm jacquard fabric is made from 100% merino wool, and the classic half-zip design makes for easy layering and quick temperature regulation. Gusseted underarms increase range of motion, while flatlock stitching and offset seams throughout makes for a soft next-to-skin feel. The all-over pattern features a textured design reminiscent of ski tracks, hiking trails, and contour lines on a topographical map.

Inspired by nature, icebreaker harnesses the performance qualities of natural fibers to offer an alternative to clothing based on petrochemical synthetics. Merino is an annually renewable fiber that naturally resists odors, keeps you cool when it’s hot and warm when it’s not, and lets your skin breathe for comfort all day, every day.
