When mild is not enough.
For days when the temperature drops and staying warm matters more than traveling light, the Hot Chillys La Montana Zip-T is the top that delivers. MTF polyester microfleece with mechanical stretch provides the exceptional warmth of a heavyweight base layer without the movement penalties of traditional heavy insulation. Micro-Elite Chamois gussets placed under the arms, at the hips, and at the cuffs manage moisture in the zones that generate the most heat while keeping bulk to a minimum in the exact areas where a tight fit matters most. Micro-denier MTF moisture transfer fibers work through the body of the garment to keep perspiration moving outward during variable-intensity activity, and built-in odor blocking keeps the top fresh over multi-day use. A zip-through collar with interior wind flap handles temperature regulation at the neck, and extended cuffs with thumbholes seal the system at the wrist under gloves. Layer it under a shell or wear it solo on mild days at the lodge.
