Merino Blend Midweight Base Layer Pants

The Burton Merino Blend Midweight Base Layer Pants are built for riders and outdoor enthusiasts who need reliable warmth without bulk. Designed as a foundational layer under snow pants or hiking gear, they deliver natural temperature regulation from the mountain to the trail — and anywhere in between.

These pants use a midweight merino and TENCEL™ blend that outperforms synthetics of similar weight for warmth, while adding four-way stretch, natural breathability, and inherent odor resistance. The slim performance fit keeps everything low-profile for clean layering, and a left-side drop-in thigh pocket offers a practical spot for small essentials.

These pants are ideal for cold-weather riders who want a base layer that pulls double duty on the hill and off — commuting, hiking, or just staying warm on a long day out. If you run cold or push hard in variable conditions, the merino blend's natural temp regulation means fewer adjustments and more time moving. They're also a smart pick for anyone sensitive to synthetic fabrics, given the softness of the wool-TENCEL™ mix.

• How warm are these compared to other Burton base layers? Burton positions this merino blend as their warmest base layer option, offering more insulation than synthetic midweights of equivalent thickness.
• Can these be worn as a standalone pant for low-output activities? Yes — the slim fit and soft hand feel make them comfortable on their own for light activity or casual wear in cold temperatures.
