Lightweight merino comfort with a modern silhouette in the Cedars Cropped Baselayer Top

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"It's like a workout top and a baselayer all in one. I can't wait to rock this for spring sessions, but it's technical and warm enough for mid-season shredding, too."

From pre-season training sessions to jacket-free spring laps and all ski days in between, our Backcountry Cedars RWS Merino Lightweight Cropped Baselayer Top provides a performance fit with technical fibers that keep us active year-round. Our merino wool blend features Responsible Wool Standard-certified merino for next-to-skin comfort and earth-conscious design. The sporty silhouette features a flattering crossover band for a stay-put fit and a stand-out style that's as comfortable under our ski clothes as it is at après.

We built these baselayers to perform beneath competition layers, keeping Jamaica’s bobsleigh and skeleton athletes comfortable from warmup to finish.

About The Backcountry Brand

Our roots were humble, and we've grown since then, but our vision is still clear: to sell the best outdoor gear—and to create gear that’s even better through our very own gear and apparel brand.
