Merino Wool Mid Layers

Stay warm without overheating with icebreaker’s merino wool mid layers. Designed to work as part of a versatile layering system, these pieces provide breathable insulation, trapping warmth when temperatures drop while allowing airflow to keep you comfortable during movement. Made from premium merino wool, each mid layer naturally regulates body temperature and moves moisture away from the skin, keeping you dry and comfortable in changing conditions. The odor-resistant fibers allow for extended wear between washes, making them an essential layer for outdoor adventures, travel, and everyday life. Choose from jackets, half-zips, and versatile pullovers in a range of styles and colors. Whether layering over a lightweight t-shirt for brisk fall days or wearing under a shell for extra warmth in winter, merino mid layers provide the perfect balance of performance and comfort. Pair with base layers, outerwear, and merino socks for a complete layering system built to handle any season.
Merino Wool Mid Layers FAQs
Q: What is the purpose of a mid layer in a layering system?

A: A mid layer provides insulation by trapping body heat while remaining breathable to prevent overheating. It works with a base layer to manage moisture and an outer layer to protect against wind and rain, creating a versatile system for adapting to different temperatures and activity levels.

Q: Can merino wool mid layers be worn as outerwear?

A: Yes. Merino wool mid layers can be worn on their own in mild conditions or as outerwear during brisk weather. In colder temperatures, they pair well under a weatherproof shell for additional protection against wind and moisture.

Q: How do I choose the right merino wool mid layer for different activities?

A: Lightweight mid layers are great for high-output activities like running or hiking, while thicker fleece or lofted mid layers provide extra warmth for colder conditions. A zip-up mid layer offers adjustable ventilation, making it a versatile choice for changing weather.
