This quarter zip mock turtleneck is a superb layer for skiing snowboarding and cross-country skiing. It has a relaxed cut that layers well beneath a breathable shell or insulated jacket. TKA Microfleece has a thermally efficient design that helps retain heat but it doesn't bog you down with the excess weight found in other fleece garments with similar insulating performance. The fabric resists pilling and maintains its shape even after repeated washings. Take it up to the mountain for a weekend or a week. Wash it every night hang it up someplace warm and it will be ready to wear for fresh tracks in the morning.
