Review: Excellent merino blend layer ideal for longer, less intense efforts cycling pearsoncycles
A line generally attributed to Warren Buffett, having 'skin in the game' means you have a stake in the outcome. Our base layers are so comfortable however, they eliminate risk – there's no chance you'll be cold or too warm. Performing almost as a second skin, merino wool is one of nature's miracles. As our grandfather, Arthur Pearson, liked to remark: 'Have you ever seen a cold sheep?' He might have added you rarely see a hot sheep either.
Pearsons iron grey base layer has a 'rib' construction that ensures a close fit and great stretch. This Long Sleeve version has deep cuffs, merrow-stitched for maximum comfort, and which double over to retain warmth. The base layer is finished with a Pearson Rose detail.Comfort: Extremely soft and quick-drying.Natural: Our wool is produced sustainably using non-mulesed merino. ['Mulesing' is cutting off part of a sheep's skin without adequate anaesthetics.
How does the price compare to that of similar products in the market, including ones recently tested on road.cc? Merino base layers cost from £50 upwards, so £55 is towards the lower end of the scale. You can easily pay the same or even much more for a synthetic base layer, like the Specialized Seamless LS Baselayer. Santini's Grido, which was already £120 when we tested it, now costs nearly three times as much at £150, though it does have a merino inner layer with a polyamide exterior.
