High Angle Solutions – Armadillo Merino; No Melt – No Drip and So Comfortable

Thursday, February 15th, 2018

Armadillo Merino’s latest next-to-skin gear

Armadillo Merino® focuses on enhancing the critical first layer and they believe that 100% merino wool worn next-to-skin is vital. We are seeing more and more brands blending merino wool with nylon in the market which may be wearable for some sports but nylon has no place in combat zones in your next-to-skin garments. Besides the fact that these synthetic base layers smell when you wear and they melt and drip at the surprising low temperature of 300F.

Your next to skin garment is your last line of defense against extreme heat and flames, so if your situation comes to this, then you require the best protection you can get. Why take the risk with a synthetic blend base layer by adding something that can melt and inflict life changing injuries.

Armadillo Merino® next-to-skin garments will not melt or drip. They have natural flame resistance up to 1100F, and will not melt or drip when exposed to heat. This is a natural and inherent FR barrier and has been very well documented. The garments don’t smell as they have natural anti-microbial properties. You can wear the Armadillo tops for days on end without odor. No more smelly base layer.

Falcon Long Sleeve Top

• Fabric weight: 195g/m2 = 8.2oz/yd2

• Fabric: 100% Merino Wool, Rib Knit

• Micron: 18.5 micron itch free merino

• Designed for: Figure hugging fit for wearing under your uniform

The Falcon Long Sleeve Top is now available. The RRP in the UK is set at £80 inc VAT. Information and technical specifications are available from tribe@brigantes.com. Download the catalog from armadillomerino.com

High Angle Solutions is a weekly series of articles focusing on military mountaineering solutions. It’s brought to you by UK-based Brigantes Consulting, in conjunction with several other brands, both here in the US and abroad. This week, it’s Armadillo Merino

The G4 Combat Shirt, features a set-in shoulder pocket with internal expansion, set-in loop with a low profile pen pocket. Cuffs have VELCRO® tab closures, hem shape is longer in the back and the flatlocked seam construction at the side panels helps minimize bulk. Enhanced fit and function are the top priorities. Underarm panels are shaped for enhanced mobility, sleeves are darted for an ergonomic fit, and the internal elbow pad pocket is minimal and lightweight. Torso fabric for the MultiCam Combat Shirt is available in both solid colors and printed Multicam versions.
