With its innovative, seamless, 3-D knit structure, Patagonia's Capilene® Air Crew offers amazing warmth and comfort range. An airy blend wicks moisture, resists odor and dries in a flash.
Capilene® Air is the most advanced baselayer Patagonia ever made. It has the greatest range of warmth and comfort of any of their baselayers, insulates even when wet, dries quickly, and resists odors for day after day use. Made from an airy blend, Capilene® Air feels light and soft on the skin and stretches naturally to move with the body in motion. Patagonia create the soft 18.5-micron-guage-yarns used in Capilene® Air with an innovative airblasting technology that dramatically increases the yarn’s loft while reducing weight compared to traditional wool yarn. Patagonia's seamless 3-D construction eliminates chafe points throughout the entire garment and nearly eliminates wasted material. Soft, stretchy elastic knit in the cuffs and hem keep the garment positioned where you want it and add skin-pampering comfort for extended use. With a gender-specific box-stitch texture to trap warmth and allow airflow.
