Kepler Short Sleeve
$69.99
Pure merino wool makes the Kepler Short Sleeve an ideal base layer for hiking a GR route on the continent, biking through Scotland or trail running on cool mornings.
- Breathable and temperature-regulating for all-day comfort
- Pure merino wool has a high warmth-to-weight ratio
- Naturally odour-resistant for wearing on multiple days
The 160gsm Kepler base layer performs over a vast range of conditions. Naturally breathable, wicking and fast drying, merino wool keeps you comfortable in both hot and cold weather, controlling your temperature throughout the day.
We’ve used pure merino wool from non-mulesed sources and ultrafine fibres (17.2 microns). As well as being soft against the skin, these ultrafine fibres have an excellent warmth-to-weight ratio.
Merino wool is also naturally odour-resistant, so you can wear it day after day without stinking your mates out of the tent. For comfort under layers and rucksack straps, the Kepler has articulated sleeves with low-profile flat lock seams.

How to measure
This size chart indicates the body measurements our garments are designed to fit. Measure yourself as described below, and use the size chart to find your size:
Chest - measure around your chest at the widest part. The tape measure should pass under your arms, and be level from front to back.
Waist - measure around your waist at the narrowest part.
Sleeve - With your arms relaxed by your side, tilt your head down and ask a friend to measure from the bone at the base of your neck, over your shoulder and down your arm to the fold at your wrist.
