Use

Made for

  • Mid layer in moderate cold
  • Base layer in severe cold
  • Alpine climbing
  • Mountaineering
  • Stop-and-go days

Not made for

  • Wind and rain on its own

For that, choose the Aiguille Microfleece.

Design notes

Waffle knit holds air in the pockets of the fabric and moves moisture along the ridges. You get warmth without thickness, which is the only way a layer this slim is worth wearing.

Four-way stretch matters more here than on an outer layer: a base layer that binds is one you stop wearing.

There is no hood and no zip to manage. It goes on under everything else and stays there.

Sourcing

Designed in the Italian Alps, in Ayas, Aosta Valley.
