Is this warm enough as a standalone layer?

It is a heavyweight 380 g/m2 knit, so it works on its own in cool conditions and as a mid or base layer in cold weather. Under a shell it handles winter mountain use.

Does merino wool itch?

The fibers are 21 microns, which is fine enough that most people wear it directly against skin without itch. The tagless label removes another common irritation point.

Can I machine wash and dry it?

Yes. It is labeled Total Easy Care: machine wash and dry. Use a wool cycle and low heat to protect the knit over time.

How does it compare with a synthetic base layer?

It is warmer and resists odor better, but synthetics dry faster when wet. Choose merino for cold, dry days and synthetics for high-output sweat.

What is the fit like under a jacket?

It is cut to layer under a shell, with offset shoulder seams and thumbholes. The heavyweight knit adds bulk, so a slim-fitting shell may feel snug.
