Overview
Built for hunters who need one layer to do more than one job, this crew works as a standalone top in early archery conditions and as a baselayer when temperatures drop. The merino blend is designed to feel soft against the skin while adding stretch, durability, and quick-drying performance for long days in the field. A drop hem in back helps keep it in place under a pack, and the standard fit is cut to allow layering without feeling restrictive. It’s a practical, season-spanning option for hunters who want a versatile layer with a clean, classic fit.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Standard fit runs true to size and is cut to accommodate layering, so it may feel less trim than a close-fitting base layer.
- At 160gsm, it is light enough for early-season wear but may require additional layers in colder conditions.
- The unisex sizing is based on men’s sizing, so women are advised to size down one full size.
- The merino blend adds nylon and spandex for durability and stretch, but that also means it is not a pure wool garment.
