Specialized Merino Layer Ss 2017

Regardless of whether you’re looking to layer-up for winter or summer riding, our Merino Short Sleeve Tech Layer will keep you riding dry & comfortable.

The science behind it is pretty simple. The base layer is comprised of a blend of synthetic, hydrophobic VaporRize™ fibers & Merino wool yarns that are naturally hydrophilic, meaning that thye love pulling moisture away from the skin. & when they do this, our blend of fibers distributes it across a large surface area where it can be rapidly evaporated. So when you think about it, no moisture buildup means that you won’t experience any clammy chills as a result of dramatic temperature swings, & your skin, jersey, & jacket are going to remain dry in order to leave you comfortable.

This material also comes with the added benefit in that Merino actually insulates quite efficiently when it encounters moisture, so you’ll remain consistently & evenly warm in the winter & cool in the summer—regardless of your level of effort. & with a short sleeve design, it opens the door for use with a standard jersey in the summer or arm warmers in the fall or winter.
