Product Details
Merino wool is widely accepted as the absolute best natural fibre for use in premium base layer products. Merino wool will keep your body insulated and also wick away moisture and help to regulate your body temperature, also avoiding that chill that comes after exercise, because synthetic base layers cool down faster. Soft against the skin and naturally anti bacterial which helps prevent odour and reduce washing, the Crew Neck Base Layer is ideal for a day in the field on the farm or for your Winter weekend dog walks!
Hoggs of Fife produces quality, hard-wearing apparel that is designed to withstand the elements and keep you comfortable during long days. The company is highly respected across the fieldsports and farming industry, providing excellent quality clothing.
Hoggs of Fife apparel is designed to last, made from quality materials that are highly resistant to wear and tear. You can trust it to keep you comfortable no matter the conditions.

This merino wool base layer receives universal praise from customers. Shoppers consistently highlight its excellent quality, comfort, and warmth. "No itching, material feels nice next to skin" customers said. The fit runs true to size and offers great value at this price point. It washes well and wicks moisture effectively. Many customers report repeat purchases.
Great top comfortable and wicks well. No other 100% merino tops at this pricepoint.
Very good quality, no itching, material feels nice next to skin.
Tried other thermal tops over the years but Merino wins by a mile. So warm.

I bought this as a present for my brother-in-law having purchased a long-sleeved version for myself last month. We're both very happy with these products.

Great top comfortable and wicks well. Would highly reccomend as there are no other 100% merino tops at this pricepoint. It was so good I purchased a second one. Size medium is great for a 44 chest or 15.5 coller as you need it next to your skin to work properly.
