Smith + Rogue Men's Skoltec Quarter Zip Baselayer
- The ultimate baselayer combo combining merino wool and bamboo
- House of Fly's favorite baselayer product for winter fishing
- Designed and Tested in Montana
A One of a Kind Fabric
Skoltec baselayers are made of a blend of merino wool and bamboo. Merino wool has many great qualities. It is moisture wicking, regulates body temperature, does not itch, resists odor, and is 6 times stronger than cotton. We love it for fishing because wool, unlike synthetics, will still stay warm when it gets wet. We added Bamboo for an even softer touch and feel. Polymide in the fabric gives the baselayer both stretch and recovery for active pursuits in the mountains.
Skoltec is a 3-Season midweight baselayer, meant to be worn next to skin. Keep in mind baselayers are not primarily an insulating layer, like a puffy say, but instead wick moisture and heat away from the skin. This idea is based on the fact that a wet body is a cold body.
One of our favorite things to wear when fishing in the winter is a Smith and Rogue Skoltec baselayer paired with the Fly Project Norlender Fisherman's Sweater.
