A line generally attributed to Warren Buffett, having ‘skin in the game’ means you have a stake in the outcome. Our base layers are so comfortable however, they eliminate risk – there’s no chance you’ll be cold or too warm. Performing almost as a second skin, merino wool is one of nature’s miracles. As our grandfather, Arthur Pearson, liked to remark: “Have you ever seen a cold sheep?” He might have added you rarely see a hot sheep either. Merino regulates temperature superbly, keeping you warm when it’s cold and cool in the heat. Naturally anti-bacterial, high wicking and odour resistant, merino is extremely soft against the skin. 

Pearsons iron grey base layer also includes high-grade nylon, for greater durability. A ‘rib’ construction ensures a close fit (ensuring you get the most from merino’s performance properties) and great stretch. This Long Sleeve version has deep cuffs, merrow-stitched for maximum comfort, and which double over to retain warmth. The base layer is finished with a Pearson Rose detail.
