Men's baselayer tops for hiking, skiing and winter

From a light zip neck for fast walking to a microfleece crew for sub-zero days, here is how to pick the right top.

Lightweight for active days

Patagonia Capilene Lightweight is the brand's lightest and fastest-drying baselayer, and Icebreaker's 200 Oasis is a lightweight 100% merino top that works year round. For high-intensity days, Icebreaker's Merino Blend 125 ZoneKnit uses body-mapped Cool-Lite jersey to help you stay cool.

Midweight for most winter days

Patagonia calls Capilene Midweight its most versatile baselayer, giving balanced warmth in a wide range of winter conditions. Icebreaker's 260 Tech is the warmer midweight version of the 200 Oasis.

Warmest for the cold

Capilene Thermal Weight is a microfleece layer with an interior grid that traps heat and moves sweat. Odlo Active X-Warm adds double-layered insulation in key areas for sub-zero ski days. Add men's baselayer bottoms for full-body warmth.

Frequently asked questions

Which men's thermal top is warmest?

Patagonia Capilene Thermal Weight and Odlo Active X-Warm are the warmest synthetic tops in our range, and Icebreaker's 260 merino tops are the warmest merino options.

Is a half zip or crew neck better?

A half zip lets you vent heat on a climb and close it when you stop, which suits hiking and skiing. A crew neck is simpler and sits flat under a midlayer.

Can I wear a thermal top on its own?

Yes. Lightweight and midweight tops work well on their own for cool-weather walks and runs, and merino tops make easy everyday wear.

Which tops help with odour?

Merino resists odour naturally, and some synthetics add a treatment. Patagonia Capilene Lightweight and Thermal Weight and Odlo Active Warm use HeiQ Mint odour control.
