The model for these boxer shorts has been inspired by the Finnish Defence Forces' Coolmax underpants. It is not a pretty sight, but who cares when it works this good! The long legs keep your inner thighs safe from abrasions and the tight fit makes sure they won't end up bunched in your crotch. So maybe not the greatest choice for a date night but absolutely the best one for hiking and military use.

Merino wool is a fantastic choice for next-to-skin wear; most notably it feels good against the skin and retains it´s insulating properties even when soaking wet. So it's like regular wool, but better. Oh, and did we already mention how nice it feels?

L1 - Base Layer

The first layer of the Varusteleka clothing system, tasked with moisture management. A good next-to-skin base layer keeps you feeling comfortable in any conditions to do this it needs to be lightweight and effectively moisture wicking. We use a lightweight merino wool blend for our base layers, natural and very functional material for this purpose.
