Men's First Ascent Midweight 1/4 Zip Baselayer Review




by Ryan Halverson

So this past week I was able to get up into the Tetons a couple times and test out this new baselayer by Eddie Bauer. On our first attempt at the Middle Teton, it was pretty warm on the approach and I found myself sweating quite a bit. Worried I might have to change out because of the warmer temps, this product did it’s job well, and every time I took a break it would dry out very quickly and keep me warm in the brisk wind.

On our second attempt I opted to wear a short sleeve for the approach and most of the hike up. However, once on the summit the winds were quite chilly and I threw this on as an extra layer. As some of my friends were anxious to ski since they were getting cold, I enjoyed taking in the amazing views thanks to the warmth and comfort this layer provided.

Here's the edit from our second attempt:
