The Long John with Fly is a nice base layer with long legs and a fly. The trousers/long johns offer thermal protection and, thanks to their material, have good breathability. The Long John is made with a minimal number of seams to prevent chafing during intensive activities. The supple and soft material makes the Long John suitable to wear directly on the skin, but it is also possible to wear normal underwear underneath. Thanks to the merino wool, the trousers absorb unpleasant odors to a minimum, ideal for long distance walks or winter sports.

Merino wool comes from merino sheep and is generally known for its high quality. Merino sheep have much more hair than other sheep. Approximately ten times as many hairs grow per square meter as an average sheep. The wool is therefore thinner and longer, feels very soft and does not itch. Merino sheep live in areas with large temperature fluctuations from -20 ºC to over 35 ºC . Their fur regulates heat. As a result, merino wool keeps you warm in the cold, but it breathes well. In addition, merino wool has an excellent moisture-regulating and self-cleaning effect, so you will not easily suffer from perspiration spots and odors on your clothing.
Polyamide, also called nylon, is a synthetic material made from petroleum. Polyamide is a strong fabric that does not tear or crease easily. It is light, elastic, easy to fold and dries quickly. A disadvantage of polyamide is that it does not absorb moisture well.
Elastane is a synthetic fiber that is exceptionally elastic. Due to its great stretchability, but at the same time its firmness, it distinguishes itself from other synthetic fabrics. For example, it is stronger and more durable than rubber, but also much lighter. Elastane is very lightweight and is therefore very suitable when you are going to do activities. Elastane also offers a lot of room to move because it is so elastic, without losing the fit.
