Description
The Helly Hansen LIFA Merino Midweight Logo Base Layer offers a premium two-in-one base layer solution - combining high performance with everyday comfort. Ideal for anyone who spends long hours outdoors, whether on tactical operations, hiking, mountain work, or cold weather cycling, this base layer delivers warmth, moisture management and durability in one.
At its core, the LIFA Merino range uses a dual-layer construction: the inner layer is made of Helly Hansen’s LIFA fabric, a synthetic fibre that rapidly wicks sweat away from the skin and dries quickly; the outer layer is 100% Merino wool, chosen for its natural thermal properties, softness, and ability to retain warmth even when damp.
Key features include flat-lock seams to reduce chafing, non-itch fabric, and the Helly Hansen logo styling that adds a rugged, professional aesthetic. The midweight build means it’s warm enough as a stand-alone top in cold, dry conditions, or excellent as a layer under a shell or fleece in harsher weather.
Why Merino matters: it’s naturally odour-resistant, so repeated wear with minimal washing is more comfortable; it regulates temperature well—you stay warm without overheating; and it’s soft and pleasant next to skin, avoiding the scratchiness of coarse wool or irritant synthetics. Combined with the moisture-wicking LIFA inner, this base layer helps prevent damp chills and discomfort during high exertion.
This base layer is perfect for anyone needing reliable, versatile next-to-skin protection: military personnel, outdoor professionals, cold weather commuters, or trail enthusiasts. It helps you stay warm, dry, and fresh in demanding conditions—with the added edge of durability and natural fibre comfort.
