Armada Contra Baselayer Men's Bottoms

A practical and no nonsense wicking synthetic baselayer, the Armada Contra Men's Baselayer Pant has a higher ankle cut for pairing with ski socks and custom fit boots. A polyester and elastane fabric with four-way stretch, chafe-free flat seams and UPF 50+ sun protection for wearing under shorts for those early season bike rides and canoe paddles to prevent those spring sunburns. A smooth and stretchy layer that moves moisture away from your skin for a comfortable microclimate without that sticky, clammy, feeling that leaves us out in the cold. For shell pant enthusiasts this pairs with quilted thermal shorts on the bitter days, glides under a pair of 200 weight wool leggings for a normal winter day, and is ready to rock the hot climbs or just below freezing all on its own. Easy care, wash and line dry for longevity, the slightly above ankle cut of this baselayer means you’re not struggling to keep them out of your boots, nor tugging to get them down far enough to meet your ski socks. The right length, the right layer, and the right fabric for a flexible synthetic baselayer that’s quick dry and moves moisture fast so you can stay comfortable from midseason to mid-spring. A basic that’s more than enough to meet even the most exacting requirements, with a unique leg length that’s surprisingly perfect.
