One of the more interesting things we saw at the recent Outdoor Retailer Winter Market was the Ninja Suit. Available in a variety of materials and configurations, Ninja Suits can be had in Merino Wool, which is offered in Black and Charcoal in addition to Red, if you are into the retro look of Red long johns. Considering the inherent FR and anti-microbial properties of Merino and the fact that the Ninja Suit has an integral 7-panel hood, it looks to make a case for a base layer for those who spend a lot of time in cold, wet conditions. Outer layers can be shed and the suit worn by itself to dry out in more secure conditions and you always have full coverage in the event of an emergency. You don’t have to take it off even to relieve yourself as it has a full horizontal zip around the waist along with drawstring as well as a front fly and chest zip. It also features thumb loops at the wrist.
