Forge Long-Sleeved Tee, Rab, £50, rab.equipment

-

Ideal for winter hill hiking or multi-day use on long-distance trails during the colder months. The 47% merino wool fabric will keep you warm or cool as needed and wick away sweat; the wool’s natural antimicrob­ial attributes mean you can wear it multiple times without causing a stink. For its part, the polyester yarns also woven into the fabric help the garment stay in shape, and it will absorb next-to-no water even during a drenching, so it will dry quickly and still keep you warm. There are no thumb loops, which is a shame, but the garment offers exceptiona­l next-to-skin comfort levels. VERDICT 7/10
