Utilising a unique dual fabric layering system, these cold-weather Long Johns are an excellent baselayer that can also be incorporated into your sleep system.
Helly Hansen says:
Performance 2-in-1 base layer pants with a warm and breathable 100% merino wool exterior and a 100% LIFA® wicking interior.
Our LIFA® Merino Midweight Pants keep you warm and dry during any type of cold weather activity, so you can get outside and stay outside longer. We combined a 100% merino wool layer with our proven LIFA® fiber technology in a 2-layer construction. LIFA® Merino MIDWEIGHT delivers all the breathable warmth of merino fibers, plus the unique moisture management properties of LIFA® fibers. These base layer pants come in cool prints and are fitted for optimal mobility without bulk.
Our Verdict
The LIFA® Merino Midweight Pants are naturally ordered resistance, so you can wear them for a few days on the trail without being too smelly. They are breathable and have excellent moisture management, keeping you dry and comfortable when exserting yourself. The flatlock seams prevent chafing, and the gusseted crotch keeps everything comfortably in place.
I use these as a thermal baselayer during winter trekking; they are warm and cosy, but I get most use out of them as my PJs in the year's cooler months.
