The Kryptek Hoplite 2 Merino Long Sleeve Hunting Shirt is the most versatile base layer in the Kryptek lineup — built for hunters who need a single layer that performs from the truck to the summit and back. 100% merino wool delivers natural scent control, moisture-wicking, and temperature regulation that no synthetic can match, all wrapped in Kryptek's Highlander camo pattern.
Why Merino Wool is the Best Hunting Base Layer
- Naturally antimicrobial — merino wool resists odor buildup without chemical treatments
- Superior moisture-wicking — pulls sweat off the skin and dries faster than cotton
- Temperature regulating — warm when cold, cool when hot — ideal for all-day hunts
- 50 UV protection — sun protection built into the fabric
- Wrinkle-free — pack it, wear it, look sharp at camp
- Articulated (athletic) fit — moves with you on steep terrain
- Does not melt below 560°C — safer around campfires than synthetics
- Sizing: See Kryptek Size Chart
Kryptek Hoplite 2 – Best For
