Cedars RWS Merino Lt-Wt Baselayer Hoodie warms every high-output day

We built the Cedars RWS Merino Lt-Wt Baselayer Hoodie for the athlete who treats slalom gates, park laps, and après-ski as three legs of the same sport. Merino wool handles the rest, trapping warmth, wicking moisture, and resisting odor without ever feeling synthetic. Nylon fibers back up that performance with the durability to survive a full season of layering.


What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"This looser-cut fit doesn't cling once I push the pace. The collar sits low enough that I never have to tug it away from my throat."
