A year-round high-performance base layer that perfects the best of wool and synthetics
The comfort of natural wool with the quick-drying speed of synthetics. The ideal hybrid piece for playing in the mountains all year round.
A women's long-sleeve shirt in Teton Bros.' own tuned hybrid-wool fabric, "Axio Lite."
Wear it on its own as active layer that blocks the sun high in the mountains in summer; use it as a mid-layer or base layer in the cooler temperatures of autumn and winter. It has wool's soft hand, moisture regulation, and natural odor control, paired with polyester's strengths of remarkable quick-drying and durability. From trail running to hiking and multi-day traverses, it's a versatile piece worth having in any environment.
Functional details that connect straight to your activity
Designed to prevent pack rub and free up your arm swing
Built with long treks and runs in mind, the shoulder seams are offset toward the front. This keeps the seams from overlapping with a pack's shoulder harness, effectively reducing rub and pain from the load. Dedicated panels at both sides widen the range of motion, so it flexes smoothly with a dynamic arm swing or climbing moves.
"M-stitching" that minimizes stress on the skin
Because a base layer sits right against the skin, the stitching gets thorough attention. It uses a special "M-stitch" also found in underwear, with low-bulk seams that lie flat—so even in long wear while sweating, it curbs the discomfort and skin damage that come from rubbing.
An in-house hybrid material
The secret of Teton Bros.' original "Axio Lite"
The base yarn, "Axio," is a special thread born in Bishu, a world-renowned wool-producing region. By wrapping wool fibers around a shaped-cross-section polyester core, the surface keeps the full hand of wool along with moisture regulation, warmth, and odor control, while the polyester core wicks sweat up quickly and spreads it out.
The "Axio Lite" used here is a fabric that alternately knits this original Axio yarn and polyester yarn in stripes. This gives it even higher moisture dispersion and stretch than a single material. The texture of the stripes also refracts light, so despite being lightweight it resists see-through even for women, combining high breathability with anti-pilling performance.

Care
To keep wool performing at its best for a long time, please take care with washing.
- Hand wash recommended: Use a neutral detergent in water below 30°C, and hand wash by gently pressing the whole garment—do not knead or scrub hard. Water above 30°C can cause shrinkage and damage.
- Keep it short: Aim to finish washing and rinsing within 3–5 minutes total. Soaking for long periods causes the fibers to mat and felt.
- Do not: Never use fabric softener or bleach, tumble dry, or dry clean.
- Spin-dry and drying: After washing, wrap in a towel to gently remove water, reshape, and dry flat in the shade in a well-ventilated place. Do not leave it wet with water or sweat for long periods.
