Read more…The Merino Cool T Long Sleeve is the perfect base layer for any city adventure. Our Merino Cool fabric is what makes up this long sleeve top, the fabric mixes tough polyamide with its great durability and speed of drying, Merino wool as it is naturally anti-microbial, temperature regulating, high wicking and super soft, along with Lyocell which further enhances the properties of the merino and polyamide.
Merino fibres have a natural crimp, this means that it does a great job of trapping still air which is a fantastic insulator and provides a great buffer against cold winter days. Merino wool fibres are more flexible and softly bend when they are pressed against the skin, giving merino that sought after soft and warm to touch feel.
Merino wool is recognised as a 4-season fibre, whilst it works to keep you warm in the winter, when you’re powering up those hills or in the warmer weather it has the ability to wick away moisture from your skin and evaporates the moisture, cooling the air between your skin and the fabric.
Lyocell is added to the blend further enhancing the properties of polyamide and merino wool. The fibres are created from a naturally sourced and sustainable material derived from wood pulp, and was originally created to be an alternative to silk. The production process transforms the wood pulp into threads ready to be blended into other fabrics. Its incredibly soft against the skin, and is also naturally high wicking and breathable just like merino wool, and has excellent durability and recovery like polyamide.
Polyamide is a tough synthetic fibre that adds durability, recovery and easy-care functionality to the T-Shirt. With a classic crew neck design its stylish and timeless, low-profile and light weight, making it comfortable to wear and convenient for travel wherever you go.

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.

Just what I’ve been looking for - but what a miserable colour! Rohan, please try subtle sea green, gentle teal blue, soft deep pink, blue navy, or colours that will look good under a tunic with 3/4 length sleeves.
This is a lovely top. Very cool and comfortable. Light without being clingy or revealing. This will be perfect as a base layer on milder days and smart enough to wear anywhere too.
Please Rohan, can you do more colours?
This is a super soft light and cosy T - I wear it all the time both as a “base” layer for walking but it also it ticks the box for a warmer under layer with other day wear. I bought the red in a medium., it’s a lovely colour. The only downside is it’s not cheap, I was hoping to find another one in the sale.
I’d like to see it in white and navy blue please!
