Smekker 100% Merino Two-Tone Jacquard Legging
The Smekker legging from Kari Traa is a fitted, high-rise women's base-layer legging made from a 190 g lightweight, highly breathable 100% merino wool jacquard knit in a two-tone block pattern. The wool fabric is moisture-wicking, temperature-regulating and odour-resistant, and retains insulating power when wet; construction details include flat seams, a wide covered elastic waistband, contrast side panels, horizontal knee seams separating the upper stripe pattern from the lower jacquard motif, and an embroidered logo on the leg. It is intended as a next-to-skin thermal layer for cold-weather outdoor activities such as skiing, hiking and training, and pairs with a matching top sold separately (style 17011-25203); it holds a 5-out-of-5 average rating across three customer reviews.
