About Patagonia Capilene® Polyester Baselayers:
Patagonia’s multifunctional, durable and easy-layering Capilene® polyester baselayers wick moisture away from your skin, breathe efficiently and dry fast to provide a foundation of comfort and temperature regulation for any pursuit. They also feature Polygiene® permanent odor control that stops the growth of odor-causing bacteria on fabrics, so you can wear more and wash less. Exclusive, recycled-content fabrics highlight the environmental position of the Capilene line, and all of Patagonia’s baselayers are recycleable through their Common Threads Recycling Program. All fabrics are also bluesign® approved, ensuring the highest level of consumer safety by employing methods and materials in their manufacture that conserve resources and minimize impacts on people and the environment.
Capilene baselayers are made in three weights for different levels of exertion and temperatures:
- Capilene® Thermal Weight (TW) is the warmest, most breathable polyester baselayer with minimal bulk. The Polartec® Power Grid™ fabric has a smooth face for easy layering and contains 30-92% recycled polyester.
- Capilene® Midweight (MW) is the most versatile baselayer with the greatest comfort range. It hits the sweet spot of weight, breathability and wicking that, worn alone or with additional layers, is the essence of versatility. Constructed with a Polartec Power Grid fabric with 93% recycled polyester content, it has a smooth face for easy layering and a brushed-back grid that aids in wicking as well as warmth.
- Capilene® Lightweight (LW) is the lightest-weight, fastest-drying and best-wicking baselayer. The 100% recycled polyester fabric has a subtle grid pattern that sits lightly and comfortably on the skin, and a smooth outer face that glides easily in any layering system.
