Brynje USA Arctic Zip Polo

$219.95 USD

Two technical layers combined for extended exposure to serious cold.

Arctic Double combines two Brynje systems in one expedition-weight garment. A polypropylene Super Thermo mesh layer sits directly against the skin, while a solid Merino wool layer covers the mesh. The inner layer moves moisture away and creates insulating air space. The outer layer stabilizes that warm air and continues moving moisture through the clothing system.

Why Arctic Double Works

Arctic Double combines two different fabric behaviors in one garment. The polypropylene mesh has very few contact points against the body and absorbs almost no moisture. Perspiration can move through the open cells toward the Merino exterior. The solid wool layer then covers the cells, stabilizing warm air and continuing to manage moisture as it moves outward.

That Means:

Less damp fabric resting directly against the skin

Insulating air space held beneath the Merino exterior

Moisture transport during high-output movement

Warmth maintained when activity slows or stops
