I’m not just trying to make this review sound reputable when I say that this is my favorite base layer to date. It is soft, fits extremely well, breathable, and quick drying. The Women’s Kashmir HG V-Neck by Terramar will quickly become the only base layer top you reach for.
My favorite feature of the Kashmir is the soft fabric. This top is comprised of micro acrylic, viloft viscose, and spandex creating the softest base I’ve ever worn. I literally cannot take this top off. It is a pretty thin layer, but when it is cold out I just layer up over it. The fit is perfect, ensuring that it will stay tucked into your pants all day, which is a must for me.
Terramar has worked hard to develop certain technologies to add to the performance of their base layers. The Kashmir uses the Heat Generating (HG) technology which means that the “hollow spaces between fibers captures the body heat and prevents the warmth from escaping.” While it keeps you warm, it also allows for breathability and dries fast.
I’ve only worn this top skiing so far, but can definitely see myself using it for hiking and biking in the summer and fall. The 25+ UPF rating makes this an ideal top for all of your outdoor activities.
Also, I know it sounds gross, but I literally haven’t washed this top since I’ve gotten it. Terramar has kindly kept in mind the ski bums that wear base layers and have added anti-microbials that “inhibit growth of bacteria that cause odors.”
The Kashmir V-Neck has easily won my favorite base layer of the year award! This form fitting and sexy base layer top will keep you looking good under your jacket and you will be the talk of the town when you’re enjoying après ski in your base layers. Just be aware… you won’t want to take this off for anything!
