Icebreaker Merino 200 Oasis Half-Zip Women's Thermal Sweatshirt - Black

Women's thermal sweatshirt in black. Made from a lightweight knit fabric containing 100% Merino wool, it works well as a base layer for outdoor activities, hiking, trekking, travel and everyday wear.

The sweatshirt is made entirely of Merino wool - a lightweight and soft natural fibre. The material offers a favourable weight-to-thermal-performance ratio and reduces the formation of unpleasant odours.

Merino wool supports regulation of the microclimate next to the skin. In lower temperatures, it reduces heat loss, and when the temperature rises, it helps wick away excess heat and moisture. For this reason, the sweatshirt performs well in various activities and weather conditions.

A zip is placed at the front, reaching to the middle of the chest. It allows ventilation level adjustment and makes the sweatshirt easier to put on and take off.

When unzipped, the zip increases airflow around the neck and chest, which supports wicking away excess heat during intense activity. When zipped up, the high collar shields the neck from cool air and enhances thermal protection in windy conditions or low temperatures.

The use of flat seams reduces the protrusion of fabric joins and lowers the risk of skin irritation. This solution is especially important when wearing the sweatshirt directly against the body and during prolonged exertion.

The back of the sweatshirt is extended to better cover the lower back during movement. The design reduces the fabric riding up when leaning forward, bending and raising the arms.
