Introduction The Merino Basic Long Sleeve Shirt is part of RIDGE MOUNTAIN GEAR’s “Basic” line, created by taking their classic Basic Long Sleeve Shirt and making it entirely with merino wool. The brand follows the concept of “no separation between daily life and the mountains,” aiming for clothing that works seamlessly in both settings.
The designer—who dislikes keeping separate wardrobes for everyday wear and outdoor gear—wanted a shirt that reduces that burden: something you enjoy wearing daily and can also take directly into the mountains. This merino version fully embodies that intention.
Within RIDGE MOUNTAIN GEAR, the “Basic” series is built on removing unnecessary details and focusing only on essential functions. These items are simple, intuitive, versatile, and suited for both everyday use and outdoor activity. Their timeless design avoids trends and is made to last, becoming more familiar and comfortable the longer you use it.
The Merino Basic Long Sleeve Shirt is meant to be one of those universal “Basics” that naturally fit into anyone’s wardrobe and lifestyle.
Material This product uses traceable wool sourced from carefully selected sheep in the Grampians region of Australia. Through an ozone finishing process, the wool retains its natural softness while becoming machine-washable.
2/60 Wool Yarn A two-ply yarn made by twisting together two fine 60-count threads. This results in a smooth, soft yarn that produces a dense, durable fabric resistant to deformation.
Tropical Wool A loosely woven, highly breathable wool that promotes airflow for effective temperature regulation. It is lightweight, comfortable in warm weather, and naturally wrinkle-resistant—ideal for travel and outdoor use.
Merino Wool Advantages Merino wool provides exceptional softness with no itchiness, excellent thermoregulation, high moisture absorption with fast drying, and natural antibacterial and odor-resistant properties.
Durability
Tear strength (JIS L 1096 D): Warp 15.9 N / Weft 12.2 N
Pilling resistance (JIS L 1076 B): Grade 5 after 10 hours
Environmental Consideration Merino wool is a natural, biodegradable, and often sustainably produced material, making it an eco-friendly choice.
Design This shirt is designed with a clean, everyday-friendly look and a relaxed silhouette that doesn’t cling to the body. While simple in appearance, the details are carefully refined.
Rounded Edges Areas prone to abrasion are intentionally rounded to avoid sharp points and reduce wear.
Collar Tips The upper collar is shaped to allow it to be worn standing up. Rounding the tips helps prevent abrasion and reduces discomfort against the neck.
Cuffs, Chest Pocket & Flap These parts are also finished with small rounded corners. Although difficult to sew—requiring fine stitching and precise control—this design helps prevent fraying over time.
Smaller Collar Design The shirt uses a stand-collar construction that fits neatly around the neck. Both the stand and top collar are kept small and low, reducing flapping in the wind. When the collar is raised, it follows the neck line smoothly.
Sleeves with Extra Mobility A larger armhole and added room under the arms improve mobility, especially when lifting the arms.
Felled Seams All seams use felled construction, hiding raw edges for a clean finish and enhanced durability compared with overlock seams, which can snag and unravel.
Snap Buttons All buttons are YKK PLANCER® resin snaps, preventing issues like thread breakage and lost buttons.
Hanger Loop A traditional hanger loop is placed at the back of the collar—rarely used in daily life but very convenient during hiking.
