A year-round, cold-conditions baselayer that manages moisture during high-output pursuits on foot, skis or two wheels, the Women's Basis Power Wool™ Crew features a highly breathable, layered construction that offers the benefits of both natural and synthetic fibers. Made in the US with Polartec® Power Wool™ fabric, the Basis features soft, ultra-fine merino wool next-to-skin to wick moisture, and a quick-drying polyester outer that adds strength and durability. The fabric also features a high-efficiency grid backer, which traps warm air, aids in moisture transfer and makes for faster drying. Flatlock seams make for chafe-free comfort when you’re moving fast.
Polartec® Power Wool™ fabric keeps you warm and dry during year round aerobic activities with an innovative bi-component knit that combines the distinct advantages of natural and synthetic fibers. An isolated merino wool interior and a synthetic fiber exterior create a hybrid construction that optimizes wicking, breathability, dry times, odor resistance and durability. The comfy wool interior provides warmth even when wet and is highly breathable, while hydrophobic polyester reduces dry times and offers durability, resulting in a textile that performs under any conditions, all year long.
As caretakers of the mountain life, we recognize our responsibility to support organizations and people who share our vision to drive positive change for people and the planet. We’re proud to partner with some tremendous organizations in their missions to responsibly advance outdoor recreation and protect our wild surroundings.
We are committed to building garments that are durable, timeless and continue to perform season after season. Over 50% of our product line incorporates preferred materials, which include organic cotton, recycled materials and responsibly-sourced down. We are committed to growing our preferred materials usage to 75% by 2025 and to completely eliminating PFAS from our garments by 2025.
Our apparel is built to last. As a part of our efforts to reduce waste and keep more gear in the mountains where it belongs, our home-grown gear renewal program allows previously-used items to be traded in, cleaned, repaired and circulated back into use.
Make Your Own Mountain Music
Every Stio Mountain Studio dedicates a spot in the corner to a certain guitar—not just any old six-string, but one created by the talented artisans at Taylor Guitars. It’s a tribute both to our founder Sulli’s passion for plucking the strings, and to all the times when music has forged connections across campgrounds and tailgates with friends and strangers alike. Read on to meet each artist and delve into the elements of the local landscapes that inspired their art.Pinecone, Acorn—Or Urban Legend?
Stio's logo has often been a topic for debate, so we took to the streets and slopes with our friends at the Whitebark Pine Ecosystem Foundation to set the record straight. Our logo? It's a Whitebark Pinecone. Check out the deeper story of this humble seed that’s the key to holding together an entire ecosystem.Of Food, Fishing And Freedom
Chef, fly angler and Stio Ambassador Ranga Perera takes us to a few of his favorite moments while filming Flavor On The Fly, from frying up fresh perch on the shores of Lake Champlain, to being guided for the first time by a fellow Person Of Color while fishing in Central Park. It’s a reflection on the ways fishing and food nourish our roots and bring us all together at the same table.
