Women's Magalloway Lightweight Base Layer Bottoms – 100% Merino Wool
As soft as cashmere and light enough to layer under jeans or shell pants without bulk, the Magalloway bottoms are your go-to for active days in cool weather. Whether you're hiking backcountry trails, skiing your favorite mountain, or just need an extra layer for unpredictable spring days, the 170 GSM lightweight jersey knit provides just enough warmth without overheating. The 17.5 micron superfine fibers feel luxuriously soft against your skin—this is merino at its finest.
Why You'll Love These Base Layer Bottoms:
The mid-to-high rise covered waistband puts soft merino next to your skin with no scratchy elastic. Ribbed ankle cuffs keep the bottoms in place and allow for easy layering under pants or into boots. The gusset reduces stress during movement, and flatlock seams prevent chafing during active days. At just 5.6 oz (size M), these pack light for travel or keeping in your daypack for temperature swings. UPF 25 protection shields your skin during sunny outdoor adventures.
Why 100% Merino?
Pure Australian merino wool naturally regulates temperature—cooling when you're active and warming when you rest. The 17.5 micron superfine fibers are among the finest available, delivering cashmere-like softness without the itch. Merino's natural antimicrobial properties eliminate odor, so you can wear these multiple days between washes—sounds like a winner to us!
