Simms Strata 160 Base Layer Crew Top - Grey

The blend offers a balance of wool's natural insulation and odor resistance with polyester's durability and moisture-wicking efficiency, providing excellent temperature regulation and comfort.

While it can be worn alone in mild conditions, it is designed primarily as a next-to-skin base layer for optimal performance when combined with mid-layers and outerwear.

Refer to the Simms sizing chart for accurate measurements. The base layer should fit snugly for best performance but not be restrictive.

Yes, it provides excellent insulation and moisture management, making it a great choice for cold conditions when layered appropriately. For extreme cold, consider adding a thicker mid-layer.

Wash as needed after use, especially if you've sweat significantly. Frequent washing with mild detergent and cold water is recommended to maintain fabric performance and longevity.

Yes, the wool content in the blend retains a significant amount of its insulating properties even when damp, unlike cotton, helping to prevent heat loss.

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and have avoided fabric softeners. Wool can sometimes feel slightly textured; repeated wear and proper washing will soften the fibers.

Check for residues from detergents or fabric softeners. A specialized wool wash may help restore wicking properties. Ensure the garment is not overly saturated with sweat for extended periods.

Ensure the garment is worn correctly as a base layer. The flatlock seams are designed to minimize irritation; if persistent, check for any stray threads or manufacturing defects.
