Salewa Zebru Responsive Longsleeve

A soft women's baselayer made of merino wool that you can wear directly against your skin while alpine mountaineering, ski touring, speed hiking, or trekking. The long-sleeve Zebru baselayer is designed to wick moisture away, dry quickly, and enhance temperature regulation during intense physical exertion in colder conditions. This makes it the ideal choice for mountain activities. Its name refers to a mountain in the Ortler Alps, Monte Zebrù. It is made in Italy, and the main component of its material is fine merino wool, which provides optimal warmth and moisture management while feeling pleasant against the skin.

In a body-mapping design, we have combined the merino wool-polyfiber blend with special responsive polyamide yarns that contain a unique mix of natural thermoreactive minerals. The responsive technology absorbs the body's far infrared radiation (FIR) and gradually releases it back to the muscle tissue. This enhances blood circulation, cellular performance, and oxygen supply, allowing you to stay warmer longer, perform better, and recover faster. Good to know: the responsive technology is a permanent material component – the minerals do not wash out.

The Zebru is very soft and has a snug athletic fit. Thanks to the polyamide content, it is particularly durable and retains its shape. Our advanced circular knitting process means the entire upper body is made from a single piece – providing more comfort without rubbing seams. Additionally, merino wool naturally prevents odor formation. A technical baselayer with merino wool for changeable conditions that keeps you warm, wicks moisture, and improves temperature regulation.
