SALEWA Zebru Responsive Half Zip Tee Men dark denim

Baselayers are crucial during high-intensity cold weather missions. The Zebru Half Zip Tee is a performance baselayer constructed with super-fine merino wool (83%) for optimal wicking warmth, temperature regulation and next-to-skin comfort. Its uses thermal bodymapping and our proprietary Responsive technology to help you manage your body temperature.

Named after Monte Zebrù (3,735 m) in the Ortler Alps on the border of South Tirol and made in Italy, this performance baselayer is composed primarily of merino/poly fibres blended with Responsive polyamide yarns loaded with a unique mix of natural thermoreactive minerals. Responsive is a smart fabric that harnesses infrared energy by absorbing Far-infrared radiation (FIR) emitted by the body and gradually re-emitting it back to the muscle tissue. Research shows that it increases blood flow, enhances cellular performance and promotes greater oxygenation, so that you can perform better and recover faster. Moreover, Responsive is an integral part of the fibre – it lasts for the lifetime of the garment and won’t wash out.

The Zebru has a snug, high-performance athletic fit and the half zip allows you to quickly seal in warmth or dump heat as required. The advanced tubular knitting process creates a seamless torso knitted in one piece for greater comfort without chafing. Merino wool also resists odour build-up and requires less washing.

A thermo-regulating performance merino baselayer for multi-day use and intensive alpine activity in variable conditions.
