Patagonia’s Capilene undergarments replace the need for wool base layers.These warm and comfortable goodies also wick off sweat – which is good for when you are skiing and find yourself traversing over flat ground… or when you winter backpack.
Furthermore, the Capilene products are environmentally friendly. They’re made from 50% recycled polyester and now thanks to their “Common Threads Program” you can mail in your worn out Capilene base layers to be recycled at the Patagonia plant.
In addition to sweat elimination, Patagonia’s Capilene includes an odor-eliminating feature. While other companies use a heavy-metal compound to thwart odors in clothing, Patagonia uses an alternative naturally derived from crab shells that would otherwise end up in a landfill. Creative!
I thought this shirt in light arctic blue was cool, plus it’s on sale for twenty five dollars.
