Särmä TST L1 T-shirt, Merino Wool

A purely functional merino wool T-shirt for active wear, made from merino wool, simply the best material you can wear next to the skin. Snug active fit, raglan sleeves and flatlock seams guarantee minimum chafe and maximum comfort, making this a damn good base layer for active, demanding use.

• Active fit: snug and comfortable.
• Raglan sleeves: no chafing seams on the top of the shoulders adds comfort when carrying rucksacks.
• Flatlock seams: no thick folds that could cause discomfort.
• Long hem: the hem is longer at the back to keep it safely tucked in when moving about.
• Velcro patch for Finnish army M05 rank insignia on the left sleeve.
• 80/20 merino wool / polyester, 180 g/m² / 5.3 oz/yd².
• 19.5 micron.

L1 - Base Layer

The first layer of the Särmä TST clothing system, tasked with moisture management. A good next-to-skin baselayer keeps you feeling comfortable in any conditions to do this it needs to be lightweight and effectively moisture wicking. We use a lightweight merino wool blend for our base layers, a natural and very functional material for this purpose.

High quality Merino wool

Made from 80% merino wool and 20% polyester, weight 180 g/m² / 5.3 oz/yd². The polyester content adds abrasion resistance to the otherwise quite weak wool. Merino wool is a fantastic choice for next-to-skin wear, most notably it feels good against the skin and retains its insulating properties even when soaking wet.

Mulesing free! All our merino wool products are made using mulesing-free certified merino wool.

Made in Lithuania.

Wash and care

This merino wool blend is machine-washable in 40 degrees Celsius (104 F), but washing is seldom necessary - wool cleans itself. Don't leave them in a wet lump after washing. Reshape them gently while still damp. When not in use, air them out and give them a good shake after that.
