Short-Sleeve Merino Top

A base layer that works as hard in the heat as it does in the cold is worth paying attention to. A Nuyarn® Merino short sleeve base layer top built for all conditions — warmer when it's cold, cooler when it's warm and warm enough to hold its own even when wet. The short sleeve cut makes it as useful on a warm day in the hills as it is under a mid layer when the temperature drops. 35% more thermal retention, 50% more durability and 53% more wind resistance than conventional Merino, with 35% more elasticity that moves with you and snaps back without losing its shape.

Moisture-wicking, odour resistant and made from a highly sustainable product. Built for the days when the weather can't make up its mind.

This was by far my best purchase for keeping warm during my 1st Wapiti trip

Awesome quality and material next to skin and a great fit.

Best to date

I found the shirt comfortable, warm when wet and reasonably quick drying on a recent West Coast adventure. The only complaint is I should have bought a smaller size.

Great base layer

Awesome base layer garment that keeps you warm but also breaths extremely well during strenuous climbs. Love the lack of smell with merino clothing after extended time in the hills too.

FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

Do you have Swazi retail stores?

We do have a Swazi shop right next door to Swazi HQ here in Levin, New Zealand.

We only sell our products through the very best retailers - we're very selective about who we have representing our gear! Find out where your nearest store is by clicking on the Swazi Stockists section or click here for the quick link.

What is the Swazi Warranty?

All Swazi garments are unconditionally warranted against faulty fabric and workmanship. We reserve the right to repair or replace at our discretion. We have a specific page for more details on our warranty and repairs and returns policies here.

Will I have to pay customs on an international order?

International customers are solely responsible for payment of all duties, import taxes and customs fees.

These fees are not included in the cost of shipping and we are unable to provide estimates of what this will cost as it will depend entirely on the garment and what charges your own government imposes.

Please check with your local customs agent for more details.

Can I change or cancel my order?

We process orders very quickly, which means in most cases, we can't make changes after an order has been placed. We definitely cannot make changes after we have sent a shipping confirmation email with a tracking link.

In saying that, if you have already placed an order and would like to cancel or change it, please email us service@swazi.co.nz or call 64 6 368 4822 within 2 hours of placing your order. We will do the best we can.

How do I know what size I need?

Every individual product page has a link to our size chart.
