Highly versatile, Laika’s dense outer face takes the edge of the wind chill, with thumb loops and a high collar for warm boost when you need it. A deep front zip gives extra ventilation, keeping you cool when working hard in colder climes.
Its brushed back 100% recycled fabric feels soft and warm next to the skin and traps extra insulating air close to your body. The smooth, close-knit outer cuts out more wind chill than your average base layer, and extra hardwearing.
..Read moreDesigned for working up a serious sweat, the Laika’s uses a high wicking, fast drying and breathable recycled polyester fabric, keeping you comfortable throughout the day. The high collar and deep front zip allows you to further control your temperature when the terrain/weather conditons change. And thumb loops provide extra hand coverage when you’ve been caught out without your gloves.
The Laika has a 4-way stretch which moves with you, even when trail running turns into fell running and fell running turns into on-all-fours-running! Last but not least, the Laika is Polygiene® treated to resist odours, meaning you can wear it multiple times in a row without having to erect your own personal quarantine tent!
Designers Notes
"The Laika has been in our range for a number of years, but we knew we could make it better – and not just by making it fully recycled. We’ve improved the wicking and made it faster drying by reducing the weight and eliminating any spandex from the fabric."

Smooth dense-knit outer face and brushed back

The Laika has been treated with Polygiene® Stay Fresh technology so you can wear it for longer before it starts to whiff. When your tee does start to pong, wash it at 30°C or handwash with cool water. Don’t use fabric softeners or conditioners though – these stop your tee from wicking as well.
Polygiene® Stay Fresh
Polygiene® Stay Fresh technology inhibits the growth of pong-causing bacteria, extending your tee’s lifespan and meaning you can wear it more and wash it less. Wearing your tee just one more time before washing can save huge amounts of CO₂ and water over its lifespan.
Recycled Polyester
The Laika is made from 100% recycled polyester. This fabric is made using post-consumer recycled content, which means it may have started life as a plastic bottle!
