We started sketching the Tamarack Merino Crew on a wet April weekend when every layer we owned was either too warm or not warm enough. A next-to-skin crew that regulates on the climb and stays fresh through day three.

It is made from 190 g/m² merino wool jersey, chosen because it handles abrasion from pack straps and still softens after a few washes. The cut is relaxed through the shoulders with articulated elbows, so reaching for a handhold never pulls the hem up past your waist.

Seams are flat-felled where they meet your skin and taped where the weather comes in. We moved the side seams forward so a hip belt sits on fabric instead of stitching, which sounds small until mile nine.

The colors are dyed in small lots, so each run carries a slight variation in tone. We think that is part of the charm; your piece will fade along its own path as it collects sun and stories.

Pockets are placed where hands naturally fall, with one zippered stash big enough for a phone and a folded paper map. Every zipper pull is a looped cord you can grab with gloves on.

  • Articulated elbows for full reach
  • Two hand pockets plus one zip chest pocket
  • Reinforced shoulders where straps sit
  • Fabric certified by an independent mill audit
  • Repairable — spare buttons and patches included

Materials

190 g/m² merino wool jersey. Approximate weight of the selected variant: 1416 g.

Care

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Hang to dry. Do not use fabric softener, which clogs the weave and reduces breathability. Re-apply a wash-in water repellent once a season if water stops beading.

Shipping & returns

Free ground shipping on orders over $75.00; otherwise a flat $7.95. Returns within 60 days.

My new favorite

Sized up because of the reviews and it is roomy. Next time I would stay true to size. Wore this for four days on a coastal route and it never felt clammy. The cut leaves room for a base layer underneath.

Great gift

Sized up because of the reviews and it is roomy. Next time I would stay true to size. The stitching is tidy and the zipper runs smoothly. It has already survived a bramble patch that shredded my old one.

Purchased: Oat / L

Beautiful color

Pockets are well placed. I wish there were one more interior pocket but that is a minor complaint.

Disappointed with shipping

Color is richer than the photos. The fabric was stiff for the first week and then relaxed nicely. The stitching is tidy and the zipper runs smoothly. It has already survived a bramble patch that shredded my old one.
