Salewa Cristallo Warm Alpine Merino Responsive Long Sleeve Baselayer Men, Blue, XL

The Cristallo is a warm, moisture-wicking and skin-friendly men's long-sleeved base layer for active days. Moisture-wicking, heat-regulating, skin-friendly. The Cristallo takes its name from Monte Cristallo in the Dolomites, northeast of Cortina. It is warm, moisture-wicking and skin-friendly - making it perfect for intense days in the mountains. The hybrid fabric made of merino wool and polyamide wicks moisture away from the body quickly, prevents odours and dries quickly. This makes the Cristallo men's shirt the ideal winter base layer for demanding activities on cold days. AlpineWool® Responsive The Cristallo is based on an Alpine Merino Responsive blend that consists of 78% merino wool and 22% polyamide. The wool is spun around the nylon core to make the fabric stronger and more durable. In addition, a special mixture of thermoreactive minerals is introduced into the synthetic fibres using our patent-protected responsive technology. Responsive recycles the infrared energy of the body (FIR) and releases it gradually. This makes you more resilient and enduring, recover faster and you stay warm longer. These benefits are maintained throughout the life of the fabric, as Responsive is an integral part of the fibre and does not wash out. The responsive technology and its effectiveness have been tested and confirmed both in the laboratory and by alpinists. Innovative Design The Cristallo men's baselayer has a body-hugging fit with a crew neck and a sleeve design with integrated gusset for greater freedom of movement. The high polyamide content also improves the durability and stretch properties of the long-sleeved shirt. Our innovative knitting process reinforces the natural properties of the wool fibres and allows the production of a seamless torso piece. This makes it extremely comfortable to wear and does not chafe The Cristallo men's long-sleeved baselayer is a Salewa® Committed product and therefore meets additional, strict environmental and sustainability criteria.
