Layering for hiking means base, mid, and shell—adjust pieces as you warm up to stay dry, warm, and protected.

For cold hikes, use a wicking base, breathable insulation, and a wind-blocking shell on your legs, then adjust layers as you heat up or cool down.

For hiking clothes, use a wicking base, a warm mid layer, and a weatherproof shell, then add or vent pieces to stay dry and comfortable.

Hiking layers work as a three-part system—base, mid, and shell—to keep you dry, warm, and protected across changing conditions.

Dress in three smart layers—wicking base, warming mid, weather-blocking shell—to stay dry, warm, and safe on winter hikes.

Cold-weather hiking layers work best as a breathable base, a heat-holding mid, and a wind-stopping shell you can open or close fast.

For fall hiking layering, wear a wicking base, warm mid layer, and wind-rain shell, adjusting pieces as conditions change.

To stay comfy on a hike, stack a wicking base, a warm mid layer, and a weather-proof shell, then adjust pieces as you move and conditions shift.

Use a wicking base, warm mid, and weatherproof shell so hiking layers handle sweat, wind, and stops without chills.

For hiking boots, use heel lock, surgeon’s knots, and window lacing to stop heel slip and toe pain.
