Overview
Built to help retain the heat your body already produces, this heavyweight base layer top is intended for cold-weather layering when conditions turn harsh. It is the heaviest base layer top in the Badlands lineup and is meant to work as part of a layered system, such as with the matching heavyweight bottom. For hunters and outdoor users facing nasty weather, it offers a focused foundation layer rather than a standalone outer piece. The design is straightforward: add warmth under your other gear when staying comfortable in the cold matters most.
