Combining the wicking and antimicrobial power of our merino union blend with pointelle knit side panels for breathability, the Merino Union 150 Zip Neck top is a great active wear piece ideal for cooler climes.
Read more…Temperature regulating, breathable, high-wicking, soft and stretchy, the Merino Union 150 Zip Neck Top has it all – a perfect active wear garment that will take you from autumn through to spring.
The main body of the Merino Union 150 Zip Neck Top is made with a blend of merino wool and polyester resulting in a fabric that is antimicrobial, temperature regulating, high-wicking and durable. Whilst the contrasting side panels of the top uses the same Merino Union blend with added elastane and polyamide, which adds flexibility and breathability thanks to its pointelle style construction for maximum airflow and excellent freedom of movement.
The Dynamic Moisture Control™ finish on the garment ensures you remain dry and feel fresh throughout the day, making this a perfect choice for those with an active lifestyle.
The technical blend of the garment also makes it incredibly light, so light you’ll hardly feel like you’re wearing it. Weighing only 165g this top has very little bulk due in part to the flatlock seams that also prevent chafing. This supremely comfortable active wear top would also make a sound choice for travel, taking up hardly any space in your luggage.
The contrasting side panels are anatomically designed to offer a flattering shape whilst also improving the fit. The high collar is excellent for wind protection, but if it gets a too warm the half zip neck can be undone for a welcome bit of fresh air.
Merino wool is typically very soft against the skin, but it can often be very difficult to care for, with the soft fabric often pulling or shrinking – with the Merino Union blend, you still got all of the softness of merino wool but with added easycare functionality making it crease and pull resistant, twist free and quick drying.
The Merino Union 150 Zip Neck Top is a fantastic seasonal choice that offers comfort, breathability and freedom of movement for your active days in cooler climates.

Merino Union (63% merino wool, 37% polyester); contrast panels 48% merino wool, 48% polyester, 3% polyamide, 1% elastane
We were the original lightweight revolutionaries. Back in the 1970’s we realised that cutting weight without losing performance meant that you can take less and do more. Everything we make is engineered to achieve this.
Low pack size is a benefit whether you’re packing for a day’s walking or for the trip of a lifetime. We continually scrutinise fabric specification and garment construction to minimise the packed size of our clothing. The actual pack size is tested and listed.
All Rohan clothing is designed to be very fast drying – as much a benefit for unexpected downpours as anything else. It’s easy to wash and often needs no ironing. Almost all garments will dry overnight, meaning you can take less with you. We test every item and list its drying time.
Merino Union blends merino wool, nature’s finest technical material, with advanced synthetics to create a best of both world’s fabric. It’s antimicrobial, odour-inhibiting, temperature regulating, high-wicking and breathable. It’s also easy to wash – by hand or in the machine. The addition of polyester to the blend increases durability and reduces drying times.
DMC™ is a wicking treatment that rapidly spreads the moisture our bodies create across the surface area of a garment. This can be achieved through the technical construction of the garment or by a performance coating and ensures that the garment dries more quickly, encourages evaporative heat loss and helps you stay cooler and more comfortable for longer.

I bought this top a week ago and teamed it up with a Mistral Jacket. The top performed really well on my 10 mile walk on Saturday. The weather threw everthing at me as I started off in 4 degrees and then wind and rain came out of nowhere. Very light and comfortable.
This top way exceeded my expectations. The sizing (for once!) is absolutely perfect. Fairly fitted without being too tight and not too baggy. Great fabric for breathability, lovely colour, very soft and extremely comfortable and smart. Sleeves are a perfect length - not too short and the thumbholes make the whole fit perfect.This is a perfect item! I need another one of these for sure!
I bought this in the winter sales and love it. I needed it to be thin enough to wear under a snug fitting coat but I wore it yesterday for the first time under a body warmer. I was so warm, I didn’t even need a hat or scarf. I didn’t even need gloves as it has thumb holes. It was absolutely perfect and I can see myself reaching for this on a more regular basis than I thought I would.
