Tufte Base layers
TUFTE BASELAYERS
Tufte has a wide collection of baselayers for different uses and with different properties: Bambull®, Bambull® Switch and Frost. Our baselayers are divided into varying degrees of heat based on the garment's function and ability to retain heat, and range from Warm to Warmer and Warmest.
BAMBULL® – WARM
We made Bambull® to make winter and cold outdoor activities more tempting. The word Bambull® comes from the word bamboo and wool, and plays directly on the composition of the garment. The Bambull® products have a two-layer construction for unbeatable comfort and good warmth, with an inner layer in bamboo viscose and an outer layer in super-fine merino wool. This guarantees fantastic softness and warmth without itching like ordinary wool can do. The products are designed so that the skin never comes into direct contact with wool, so that even people with sensitive skin can enjoy warm wool-based garments and the fresh winter.
BAMBULL® SWITCH - WARMER
Bambull® Switch is a reversible baselayer garment with a two-layer construction. Bamboo viscose on the one hand ensures incredibly scratch-free softness against the skin, and super-fine merino wool on the other hand gives you good warmth. Turn the garment as needed, and experience the double comfort! This garment is categorized as warmer than our classic Bambull®, as the ability to turn the garment and get the merino wool towards the body leads to better warming properties. How to use the Bambull® Switch: The bamboo viscose is super soft and comfortable against the skin, and is scratch-free and thus hypoallergenic. It is perfect for easy trips in mild to cool temperatures. The bamboo viscose is very moisture-absorbing and draws sweat away from the body and into the garment. When you stand still, the garment can thus be experienced as cooling. If it gets too cool or cold, the garment can be turned so that you get the merino wool towards the body, and the garment will keep you good and warm and can be used at even colder temperatures. The properties of merino wool keep you warm even when you get wet, and have a temperature-regulating effect. The wool is 18.5 microns super fine and soft merino wool, and for most people the garment will not itch against the skin. To indicate which side is merino wool, we have placed a small merino sheep at the bottom of the sleeve / leg. You will also be able to identify the merino wool as this side of the garment has a pattern.
