Ortovox Merino Thermovent base layer is made from Ortovox’s breathable mesh structure that keeps the weight low but allows for an ideal amount of ventilation and moisture control. What is brilliant about this mesh design is they are repeating the structure of merino wool (which naturally has air pockets that trap warmth) by allowing the mesh structure to trap additional warm air pockets and allow for additional moisture control. 

The Merino Thermovent long sleeve shirt and 3/4 pants are designed for backcountry activities in the high alpine and for longer and colder mountain days.  The mesh knit design really extends the already excellent insulation and moisture control of merino wool.

Some additional features of the pants is that they are only 3/4 length, so they don’t double up the material where you already are wearing calf length ski socks and have a special knit structure in the knee area that provides additional protection and ensures warm joints, while there is an opaque knit used in sensitive areas.

Watch for our full product review later this winter season.
