Patagonia Capilene Midweight Zip Neck

$ 55.20 $ 69.00

This is one of our favorite baselayers for hiking Yellowstone or fly fishing the Gallatin River.

The most versatile polyester baselayer with the greatest comfort range with Polygiene® permanent odor control.

A use and abuse must-have for groveling up a chimney pitch or scrambling high above timberline. Our Capilene® Midweight fabric hits the sweet spot of weight, breathability and wicking that is the essence of versatility worn alone or with additional layers. It keeps you dry and comfortable when worn during high-exertion activities in cool-to-moderate temperatures and insulates beneath a shell in cold weather. Constructed with a Polartec® Power Grid™ fabric, it has a smooth face for easy layering and a brushed-back grid that aids in wicking as well as warmth. The fabric has 63–93% recycled-polyester content and is treated with Polygiene® permanent odor control. Features include a long center-front zipper for venting, internal neck tape for next-to-skin comfort, full underarm gussets for unhindered shoulder mobility, elastic thumb loops for secure hand coverage, flatlock seams to minimize chafing, offset shoulder and side seams to lie smoothly beneath pack straps, and a drop tail for additional coverage.
