Polartec® Power Stretch® Pro in a warm, versatile, and stretchy baselayer to keep you comfortable in cold conditions with a brushed interior to trap heat and a durable nylon outer for gliding into your midlayer.

Why we like it:

It’s the turtleneck collar that does it for us with a nice deep zip for venting. This is comfortably weighted for cold weather biking, layers for ski days with teen-y numbers, and has fast wicking and quick dry fabric for keeping us dry. Plus, it happens to look great as a turtleneck.

Features and Functions:

Designed specifically for snow sports this has stretch for unimpeded movement, a brushed interior to trap warmth, and is air permeable when you need it to release excess heat. It’s a thermally efficient base layer with excellent moisture management with a nice weight for taking on the cold.

Fit and Sizing:

This is fitted. If you prefer a looser baselayer (or intend to add a baselayer to this) size up.

Bottom Line:

Touring, freeride, or resort skiing, the Arc'teryx Rho Heavyweight Men's Zip Neck is an efficient heavier thermal baselayer for staying comfortable in cold weather with a nice high collar and a deep zip for venting.
