I learned about mesh baselayers from a recent video from @TheBearEssentials He does a much better job at explaining how and why mesh base layers work, so make sure to check out his video over here: [ Ссылка ]

Two other good videos about mesh base layers by @MidwestBackpacker and @GruntProof :

Here is the Brynje Mesh Base Layer that I'm using (affiliate link) ➜ [ Ссылка ]

In this video, I finally test my new mesh base layer. I've been testing it on and off since the end of November 2023, but in this video, I do a comprehensive test to compare it with synthetic and merino wool base layers. Not to spoil anything, but it turns out that mesh base layers actually are that good. I wonder why we aren't talking more about them?

Also, one point that I forgot to mention in the video, is that you should always wear them underneath another layer. So for example, if you wear a mesh layer underneath a merino wool one, you'll be able to deal with the lowest of temperatures.
