Material
The Arc’teryx Rho LT Zip is a lightweight baselayer made of a brushed polyester and elastane blend. I love this piece because it is incredibly soft and has a low-profile insulation that breathes.
Quick Drying
This base layer does a fantastic job of pulling sweat away from your skin.
Stretch
Adding elastane to the fabric provides a four-way stretch for mobility.
Trim
This is a next-to-skin fit.
Neck
The 1/2 zip-neck design allows for easy heat dumps.
Interior
The fabric’s inner surface is brushed and feels very soft against the skin.
Seams
This baselayer’s flatlock stitching minimizes chafing from extended use.
Pocket
It has a small, laminated, zippered pocket on the chest.
Odor-Resistant
The fabric is treated with an Anti-Odor finish.
How I use
Hiking
This is an excellent option for staying warm on slow hikes.
Snowboarding
I use the Arc’teryx Rho LT Zip as a baselayer when I snowboard in the West, where it does not get very cold. I use the Rho AR Zip Neck when I need something more substantial.
I picked this up at Arc’teryx.
