LIFA Merino midweight crew
"Great top. I already had a couple of these tops and I've given them a pretty good workout in Canberra and European winters over the last few years so I have just bought two more."
— Peter M. (5/5)
take care in sizing
"Great product. However, I did order the same size as I wear for HH jackets. This is wrong. The base layers need to be smaller, so they fit snugly on the body. I had to change mine, but I had no problems with the exchange from very polite staff."
— David B. (5/5)
Warm and well made.
"Great wearing undershirt to use in cold weather with other layers"
— Sam C. (5/5)
Excellent quality midweight merino base layer
"As an active venturer I routinely use base layers and found this midweight version at HH. The quality is excellent with the size running true. Perfect for active people on the go in chilly climates."
— Steve D. (5/5)
