Nylon material has a Dura Guard coating which fights off big wave water and dries super fast.

Well-habituated to the South Island's cold and damp New Zealand sheep provide the foundation for our performance baselayer. Made from soft 4.4-oz merino wool with an extra-fine-gauge yarn and a durable jersey construction for a luxurious hand it insulates even when wet naturally resists odor and stretches with your every move. This zip-neck has a deep zipper for ventilation that's covered at the top and bottom for next-to-skin comfort. Raglan sleeves won't chafe beneath pack straps and self-fabric cuffs keep the sleeves in place. We eco-wash our merino wool for softness and to reduce shrinkage without the use of environmentally harmful chlorine. Machine wash; lay flat to dry.
