Product Information
Full details
The Paramo Grid Technic Baselayer is designed for active outdoor enthusiasts, including mountain climbers, cyclists, and trekkers who require versatile temperature regulation in a single garment. Its standout benefit is the dual-function Parameta G fabric, which actively wicks moisture and adjusts insulation based on whether you are wearing a shell layer, though users should note it is primarily an athletic-fit base layer rather than a standalone outer jacket.

FAQs
Is the Grid Technic suitable for summer hiking?
Yes, when worn without an outer shell, the fabric promotes airflow and cooling, making it suitable for high-intensity summer activities.
Can I wear this as a mid-layer?
The athletic fit is designed primarily as a baselayer, though it can be used under a light fleece in mild conditions.
Does it have sun protection?
While the fabric provides coverage, it is not specifically rated for UPF protection; check the garment tags for specific textile certifications.
How should I wash it?
Use a gentle cycle with mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, as they can block the moisture-wicking technology.
Are the thumb loops optional?
Yes, you can simply pull your thumbs out of the loops if you prefer to wear the sleeves normally.
Troubleshooting
Garment feels damp during high exertion
Ensure the neck zip is opened to increase ventilation and allow the fabric to utilize its evaporative cooling properties.
Feeling cold while stationary
Layer a windproof or waterproof outer shell over the top to allow the fleecy grid squares to trap warm air against your body.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the most out of your baselayer, ensure it is worn directly against the skin to facilitate proper wicking. The garment is compatible with most standard layering systems. When caring for your Paramo Grid Technic, machine wash it in cool water using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can inhibit the wicking properties of the Parameta G fabric. Always check the garment care label, but generally, air-drying is recommended to maintain the integrity of the synthetic fibers.
