Have been trying my thinnish (thinner than the Aldi version) merino T shirt (weighs 160 gms for a smallish large-really a medium) not sure what weight it is per m2.
Love no lack of smell but the *&%$#! thing stays wet too long when I stop. Usual spots -under arms and back.
In comparison my Patagonia Capilene LW T shirt weighs 85 gms in and is nearly as warm, wets less and dries when I stop in about one to two minutes but the smell builds eventually.
I am a fairly quick/active walker and wear just enough to keep warm, minimising perspiration, but of course with a rucksack you are going to get sweaty.
Is there something I might try that is thinner-I know it will likely be more fragile-than the one I referred to above.
If I could afford it I may give it a go.
As I said not after Aldi stuff-tried it, it's too heavy (hot) my current merino Tshirt is a Torpedo7 one from a couple of years ago. It is thinner than the Adli version of the Tshirt of which I have three for travelling.
Not after a grid fleece or any other layers-just a thinnish merino baselayer. I've seen Brynje, Brubeck mentioned.I think some time back NBNW mentioned one company's merino?
Please throw any merino thin baselayers at me and I'll have a look at them. Would probably be alright were there a small amount nylon in there.
I will not criticise anyone's suggestions-but if it's alright I may ask some Qs of you.
Ta very much for any suggestions.
