Salewa Zebru Responsive Zip Longsleeve

Moisture-wicking, warm, and comfortable against the skin

Baselayers are the foundation of your clothing system and can be crucial in the mountains when the wind howls and temperatures drop. The Zebru Half Zip Long Sleeve Shirt is named after Monte Zebrù, a mountain in the Ortler Alps bordering South Tyrol. It is made in Italy, and the main component of its material is super fine, warm merino wool (64%), which ensures optimal moisture management and temperature regulation while feeling pleasant against the skin. Additionally, merino wool naturally resists odor formation.

FIR Material Technology

We combine the merino wool-polyfiber blend in a body mapping design 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. The result: improved circulation, enhanced cellular performance, and better oxygen supply. This means you stay warmer for 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 super soft and has a close-fitting, athletic cut. 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 chafing seams. The half zip allows you to trap warmth or quickly release it when needed. Made in Italy.

This high-performance baselayer with merino wool is perfect for multi-day tours and intense activities in changing conditions.
