Simple, long, warm - MAMMUT hits the mark with the Trift longsleeve

Baselayer shirts are like avalanche shovels: you rarely talk about them enthusiastically, but if they don't work, the day is over. This makes it all the more important to have a piece you can rely on - one that you can pull out of the wardrobe in the morning without thinking. The MAMMUT Trift longsleeve has taken on precisely this role over the past few weeks, when temperatures have rarely gone above zero. As a go-to shirt for skiing, ski touring or hike & fly, it has proven itself very well so far. It does its job - and does it quite inconspicuously well. And that's a great compliment for a base layer.

The length of the shirt is striking - at a height of 167 cm, I wear a women's size M, yet the longsleeve easily reaches over my bottom and hands. As a base layer, this is worth its weight in gold, as the shirt can be easily tucked into your trousers and cold air stays where it belongs - outside. Anyone who has ever had an icy draught on their lower back in sub-zero temperatures will appreciate this. The material is also very elastic and adapts well to any body shape.

The material - it's all in the mix

The shirt is made from 59% polyamide, 39% merino wool and 2% elastane. Thanks to the successful blend of materials, it offers a perfect balance of warmth, breathability and robustness. The merino wool/polyamide blend combines the familiar advantages: pleasantly warm, even when standing, yet breathable when climbing.

Unfortunately, a longsleeve alone is not enough when it's snowing.

The shirt is particularly impressive on ski tours thanks to its quick drying time. Even if you arrive at the top drenched in sweat, it dries again quickly. So there's no clammy feeling or shivering and you can concentrate fully on the most important part: the descent.

A breeze at the back? Not with this shirt.

The effective odor management is also a positive feature. Thanks to the high wool content, odor development remains very low even after several days. The shirt also features sustainable merino wool from responsible animal husbandry and is produced in Europe.

Conclusion

The MAMMUT Trift Longsleeve Women is not a cool, flashy piece - but a reliable companion for anything that can get cold, sweaty and long outside. Overall, the Trift Longsleeve Women is a high-quality, durable functional shirt that is ideal for outdoor activities in cooler temperatures.
