Layering like Mary Rand
When it comes to gearing up for mountain missions, Mary doesn’t mess around. She proudly calls herself the “underlayer quiver queen,” and for good reason. In the outdoor world, a quiver is a collection of gear designed for different conditions, like having a board for powder days, one for the park, and one for all mountain riding. For Mary, her quiver lives closest to her skin. It is a lineup of Smartwool base layers she rotates to match the day’s adventure. Her go to favorite is Smartwool Intraknit. Engineered for movement, breathability, and next to skin comfort, it keeps her warm without the bulk. It is her everyday essential for staying cozy and dialed in, no matter the conditions.
“You’ve got the best stuff right there next to skin. It’s what you feel all day long. You don’t smell. You stay dry. You stay warm. And you know you don’t have to do any laundry at night.”
From long days chasing lines to quiet mornings on the skin track, Mary trusts her base layers to perform so she can focus on the adventure ahead.
