A close fitting and fast drying lightweight fleece layer for hiking and mountaineering.
Mountain Equipment says:
Among our lighter fleece layers, the Lumiko offers breathability, fast drying performance and an excellent warmth-to-weight ratio. Light and packable, it can be worn as a base layer for long winter walk-ins or as a light mid-layer on summer scrambles.
Made from 93% recycled materials, the performance stretch fleece is soft and highly wicking, while the ribbed construction reduces weight and bulk without compromising on warmth. Coverstitched seams ensure prolonged next-to-skin comfort, even under a pack or harness or after building up a sweat.
The slim, Active fit and low-profile cuffs are designed to reduce bulk and layer well, while excellent stretch means you can navigate complex ground without restriction. The deep centre front zip lets you dump heat when working hard or quickly zip up as shadows lengthen. A zipped chest pocket secures essentials, such as snacks or a phone.
