I recently bought one of Paramo's Taiga fleece jackets and as it's getting "slightly" warmer I'd like something other than the usual shirt/jumper under the fleece.

It's still a bit to cold for just a T shirt, was wondering if anyone had any suggestions or recommendations?

Merino wool works well I find. Long sleeve /zip neck version.
You might also consider a Norwegian army shirt, similar configuration
but different material.

Base Layers - long sleeve top and long johns. Merino Wool is the best and the most expensive. I did notice when i was in Millets yesterday that they had Peter Storm Base Layers at half price about £9 each. I use peter storm for walking and they are very good in the cold weather.

How about some climate control vests or Tshirts or tops.

They keep you cool when you are too hot and warms you up when you are cold. Marks and Spencer do a range of them. Never tried the clothes but the range of tights they did in this are great.

At work we got issued with Coolmax tops which did the same thing and they did work.

I wear short sleeved Helly Hanson a lot, then an ordinary teeshirt/shirt/jumper as necessary, then a fleece (Arc'teryx are nice). Larger bike shops also sell this type of clothing.

It's got to be something from 'wolfskin' under a 'fleece', surely?
