Howies Natural Merino S/S Baselayer
BikeRadar verdict
"Can’t fault its performance, but the price is pretty hefty – even for Howies!"
The NBL Light is a fitted base layer that really hugs the body. The sleeves are cut short and where some merino clothing can feel a bit itchy, this is sublimely soft next to the skin. It’s so comfy we didn’t really want to take it off.
It’s very light and breathable, and does a great job of wicking sweat naturally, which controls body temperature.
Like other wool garments In doing so it keeps any odour build-up to a minimum, so it's great for long rides and repeated use.
It’s definitely light enough for those classic crap summer days and will be a godsend come winter.

User review of Howies Natural Merino S/S Baselayer
Excellent, if pricey (watch out for the very decent Howies' sales where you can get a few bob off) base layer.V. warm v comfortable, excellent fit and no nasty clamminess the man made layers cause. Essential for all weather biking.
