Description
Made for high exertion in cold settings, T3 base layers deliver warmth without inhibiting your mobility. When you're chugging up steep switchbacks, the lightweight fabric offers excellent moisture management. The inner side rapidly wicks moisture away from the body, and the outer yarns disperse it for quick evaporation. On the inside, a voided grid construction traps air for greater warmth and increased breathability.
- Fabric is Polartec Power Grid®.
- Polygiene® silver ion treatment provides odour control.
- High collar with chin guard.
- Neck logo is heat transferred, not sewn in, for increased comfort.
- 3/4 length zipper for venting.
Fit guide
Garments, designed for specific activities have features that aren’t always adaptable to general use. For example, cycling clothing is longer in the back and arms. Activity aside, the fit of MEC clothing falls into these categories:

Our next to skin fit that contours the body for no distractions

Our close to body fit with a low profile silhouette for ease of movement

Our standard, slightly off body fit for unrestricted comfort

Our roomy, off body fit for maximum comfort and easy layering
All MEC men’s and boy’s pants are regular rise.
