About Our SCHEELS Outfitters Base Layers

Whether you’re hunting, snowshoeing, or ice fishing this winter, having the proper baselayer will keep you warm, dry, and comfortable. Our Hunting Experts at SCHEELS helped create a strategic layering system to keep you warm throughout the changing temperatures during the fall and winter seasons. Whether you’re spotting elk in September, flushing pheasants in October, hunting whitetails in November, or fishing for perch in December, the SCHEELS Outfitters base layers feature different options to keep you comfortable throughout it all.

Designed to be the foundation of your layering system, the SCHEELS Outfitters Baselayers offer three different weights to transition from brisk fall days to cold winter weather. No matter the weight, every baselayer features antimicrobial and moisture-wicking technology to prevent odor and absorb sweat. You can’t control the weather, but you can be prepared for it.

Lightweight Base Layer

Our SCHEELS Outfitters lightweight base layers are designed for high-exertion activities in cooler temperatures. Available as a baselayer top and bottoms, this lightweight option is a great first layer to wear during those first few hunts of the season. The mesh side panels allow for increased ventilation when temperatures start to rise throughout the day. Made with spandex, this lightweight baselayer moves in every direction for comfort while staying active. Easy to wear under any outerwear piece, our lightweight base layer is a perfect addition to any layering system.

When to Wear This Base Layer:

  • Cool temperatures

  • High-exertion activities

Midweight Base Layer

The SCHEELS Outfitters midweight base layer is an ideal layer for colder fall hunts. Made with a hybrid of synthetic fabrics, this midweight baselayer effectively manages your body temperature to keep you comfortable in a range of colder temperatures. Plus, the amount of spandex within the midweight base layer still allows for mobility in every direction. If you’re in between the fall and winter seasons, this midweight base layer is the perfect option to start your layering system.

When to Wear This Base Layer:

  • Moderate activity

  • Cold temperatures

Heavyweight Base Layer

When facing extreme cold or sitting still for long periods of time, look to our SCHEELS Outfitters Heavyweight Baselayers to keep you comfortable. To effectively trap and retain body heat, our control heavyweight base layers are made of polyester and the Churchill base layer is made from Merino wool. With this construction, you’ll enjoy a balance of warmth and breathability to stay comfortable throughout the day. Wearing one of the SCHEELS Outfitters heavyweight base layers as your first layers will help you make the most of intense winter conditions like sitting on a frozen lake or braving a cold winter day to hunt.

When to Wear This Base Layer:

  • Below freezing temperatures

  • Sitting or very little movement
