Sherpa Adventure Gear Baans Tech Quarter-Zip - REVIEW

The most crucial layer for ski touring in my opinion is the base layer. Its sole purpose is to move sweat away from your body and keep you dry, thus keeping you warm. When your temperature rises due to aerobic activity, you are going to sweat and being wet in the outdoors any time of year can be dangerous, especially during winter and in the middle of no where. Thankfully there have been huge gains in wicking fabrics over the years from marino wool to embedded coconut fibres. The Sherpa Adventure Gear Baans Tech Quarter-Zip is no slouch either as it uses embedded bamboo charcoal to quickly absorb and disperse sweat. It's also Eco-friendly. Bamboo is a highly renewable, quick-growing natural resource and in case you needed another reason to be impressed, it is also deodorizing. Yup, it naturally resists the microbial growth that can cause odours, so it's technically antimicrobial, and anti-fungal. The Baans Tech Quarter-Zip is also relatively light weight so it's naturally cool and the 1/4 zip provides ventilation on warmer days.
