Our Altitude range is designed to fit close to your body for maximum performance, so it’s tight but still soft, with plenty of give for extra comfort. The Men's Altitude Crew Neck Base Layer is the ‘go to’ thermal layer for just about any adventure and our all-time best seller. It’s the perfect thermal layer for core warmth when you’re layering up, yet versatile enough to be worn on its own in milder conditions.

Tag-free, flatlock stitching and raglan sleeves help eliminate chafe and maximise comfort. The drop back hem and extra body length is designed for tucking into your outer layers. Thumb loops keep your hands warm and stop your sleeves riding up when layering.

This top is the perfect combination of performance, warmth and comfort.

(For a more relaxed fit try our Ultra or Universal tops.)

Designed to be worn as a body tight ‘contact fit’ layer.

Great all rounder

Nice, light and snug fitting, perfect as a base layer or to throw on over the top to keep you warm. Looks great, fits great, 100% happy with my purchase and already looking to add more merino to my running kit

Bronwyn Steer (Railton, AU)
Warm & comfortable

Very warm & comfortable, happily purchase again

Another great piece of kit

It has been a while since i brought any IO and putting this on reminded me it has been too long. Putting this on is like a nice warm hug - i know that sounds ridiculous. The thumb loops work really well with the Newton Gloves. I wish i had gotten them at the start of the Canberra winter as opposed to the end.

Merino Base Layer.

I use Altitude as a light weight base layer for cycling. It keeps me warm, but not hot even if i get it all sweaty. Initially I thought the the “glove” extension of the sleeve was a bit odd, but now in the cold weather I find it useful in keeping my hands warm. They fit easily under my cycling gloves, leaving no gaps.

Get warm this winter

Two new tops are providing me with continuous comfort and warmth while l work from home. No itchiness whatsoever. Multi wear between washing. The tops are a very solid base from which to start your clothing layering.

First purchase

I purchased an Ultra Zip, an Altitude long sleeve crew and a skull cap. I am generally between Medium & Large. In these styles for me at least - Medium is plenty big enough. The Ultra Zip fancy enough to wear to the pub or out to tea, the Altitude tee does the job exactly as described. The skull cap is brilliant. Small, warm, thin - definitely an essential piece if kit for Autumn/Winter in Adelaide.

Short version is - more than happy - hoping for a good long life and will look to buy more. The Ultra fabric smoother - the Altitude "feels" tougher. Might go for Altitude when looking for warmth and robustness - Ultra when looking for style & comfort.

A solid 4 1/2 out of 5 stars and I am told I am not easy to please!!!!!

Cheers

Fabric Guide

While Merino is an amazing natural fibre, not all Merino fabrics are created equal. At ioMerino, we make our own fabrics, using only the best quality fibres, and to very specific specifications that make the most of the natural benefits of Merino. All of them are 'Merino rich’. No cheap blends passed off as Merino. No cheaper scratchy fibres or synthetic substitutes to save money. No unethical production. And each fabric is made for a specific purpose. So if you see something with a small amount of elastase or nylon added, you can be sure it absolutely needs to be there to enhance the natural stretch and durability. 

It took every bit of our 140 years of experience in the wool industry to perfect our fabrics, but we think you’ll agree the end result was more than worth the effort.

Ethically Made. Ethically Sourced. Perfectly Natural.
