At Dismount, we love to have fun outside all year long! We've learned that with the right clothing, enjoying colder temperatures doesn't have to be so scary.

A good start to layering up is to start with what you wear directly against your skin - baselayers! Nothing is worse than freezing or overheating and baselayers play a key role in keeping your body temperature regulated so this doesn't happen. Made with materials designed to both insulate and ventilate, we offer both merino wool and synthetic fabrics from icebreaker & Patagonia.

The best part is how versatile they are - you can wear them fat biking, downhill or crosscountry skiing, commuting, snow shoeing - they are the perfect way to layer no matter how you like to get outside and we're here to help you find the one that's right for you!
