Time Out 1/15/09 – 1/21/09 Midweight Baselayer

Featuring a yarn made from waste coconut shells destined for landfills, the Marmot Midweight Baselayer – a stretchy, soft, slinky zip top – gets all the green stars. Flat Lock seams don’t rub your skin and after a fast, long walk on the flat, there was no scent of Malibu seeping from the baselayer’s pores. Breathable Polartec fabric means the base layer dries fast and with a UV protection factor of +40 you can be exposed all day without turning pink.
