Icebreaker base layers are made from superfine merino wool sourced from New Zealand. This natural fibre is soft, breathable, and odour-resistant, providing excellent temperature regulation.

Icebreaker base layers are available in different fabric weights, indicated by a number (e.g., 150, 200, 260). Lighter weights (120–150) are best for warm or high-intensity activities, midweights (200–240) suit moderate to cool conditions, and heavyweights (260+) are ideal for cold weather and winter sports. Choose based on your activity and climate.
