Technical base layer for cold weather

The ultimate cold weather base layer. Soft next to the skin, high yak wool content helps to trap warmth whilst wool's natural properties will allow your skin to breathe. Reinforced panels add durability where it's needed most.

Giving back to the Himalayan nomads

kora was founded with the aim of supporting the communities of the Kegawa Herders' Cooperative, by buying their yak wool directly to create our layers.

A collective of more than 90 families in the Yushu Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, our friends live all year around at 4,500m.

We buy this wool at a set mid-market rate throughout the buying season in order to offer price certainty, and in addition we pay a 10% stipend.

Great

Live this more than I thought I would

I never give 5 ⭐️, let me start with that. I have multiple merino wool shirts, from various brands. The Yushu is more comfortable and has a better fit than any others I have. Faced with all couple of well worn pieces I looked at their new versions, and they’ve changed. The Yushu is my new go to. I’ll consider the Yardang when you introduce charcoal grey or black.

So warm, but smallish

This shirt arrived during a heatwave so I haven't been able to test it out, but it is nice and feels light but warm. I am typically a small, bought a medium, and it barely fits over a t-shirt. I look forward to testing it out more when the weather cools this fall.

Nice and warm

I love the fabric and construction of this shirt. My only complaint is that it is a bit more scratchy feeling than I had hoped. Other than that, it is very warm. It seems to take a few minutes for the fabric to trap the warm air but, once it does, it performs well..especially for highly aerobic activities. It it form-fitting and I love the styling. I would definitely buy another.

Best garment for winter hiking

I love my warm top. The cut is excellent! I have recommended it to my friends to wear on cold icy days when hiking in the mountains of central Virginia.

Warm and lightweight

Kora comes through yet again!

I own and love several Kora products. When I saw this go on sale, I literally jumped at it...and man oh man, let me tell you...I sure am happy I did.

The look and feel is just awesome. Seriously, it looks and feels like nothing else I own, and the vast majority of my ski gear is very high end stuff, like Arc'teryx, Voormi, Mountain Hardwear, and Patagonia. This thing is so soft, it's rather crazy. The feel is so luxurious. Even the navy blue color looks so rich.

I'm a big guy and not in great shape right now. I wear XXL and sometimes, some brands are actually a bit too snug. This fits me great for a midlayer with a thin baselayer underneath. I'll need to lose a few pounds for it to truly fit and look like it should, but I can easily do that.

I'll be in Steamboat Springs ripping up the POW all next week, and I can already guarantee you that my new Stratam Sweater will be proudly shown off to friends...and maybe even some new friends. HA!

Thanks, Kora! Another great product. I just wish this came in a few other colors, so I could buy them wear it no matter what color jacket I'm sporting.

JUST BUY IT ALREADY!

I’m 24 YO
5’ 8” 135 Lbs Physically, athletically fit
Bought size Sm
I purchased this item in 2 different colors along with the YUSHU BASELAYER BOTTOMS
These are perfect for when I’m physically moving in 0-10 degrees ( F) and 10 MPH winds From my experience I love these.
They are slightly itchy on the first wear but afterwards extremely comfortable. Super lightweight, moisture wicking, easy to pack, easy to care for washing, drying etc. you won’t regret it. Super great fit.
I don’t even feel cold after working out in these.
I wear a polyester windproof jacket over this shirt and I’m good to go.
Shipping takes about 2 weeks to Chicago, IL

Absolutely wonderful

Hey everyone I’m from Chicago Illinois and it gets COLD up here.

Currently it’s been around ( - 5 to 10 F ) avg 10-15 mph wind occasional 30 mph GUSTS and I’ve been wearing this non stop it keeps me completely warm.
It’s soft, easy to care for, wash dry etc, very good insulation, comfortable, lightweight, easy to pack. Overall great bang for your buck.
When you’re inside you don’t feel it overheating and it isn’t overbearing you because it regulates your temperature amazingly well.
If I’m outside for long periods
ex 1hr hrs and I’m talking, it begins to frost near my mouth, due to the heat— vapor—and the cold immediately freezing it — thats the only drawback. (Even so it still is warm)
Other than that, it’s amazing.

Healthy and physically fit I recommend this product!
