Men’s Hiking Base Layers

Below you will find our suggestions for the best hiking base layers for men in various categories (long- and short-sleeved shirts, underwear). A base layer is a garment that is worn next to the skin, with or without other layers over, depending on the weather (temperature, precipitation, wind). It should wick any moisture away from the skin, and be breathable and comfortable to wear.
