FAQs

What activities is this baselayer best suited for?

It is recommended for activities such as fitness, walking, hiking, skiing, and trail running, providing warmth in cold weather conditions.

What is the fabric composition?

The fabric is made from 65% polyester and 35% viscose.

How does the 'close fit' impact comfort?

The close fit is designed to maximize heat retention and minimize bulk for effective layering. If you prefer a looser fit, consider sizing up.

Can I wear this as an outer layer?

While it can be worn on its own in mild conditions, it is primarily designed as a base layer to be worn under other garments for optimal warmth.

How do I adjust ventilation?

You can adjust ventilation by zipping or unzipping the half-zip neck according to your comfort level and activity intensity.

Is this suitable for very cold winter conditions?

Yes, its thermal construction makes it effective for cold weather. For extreme cold, it is best used as part of a layering system.

Troubleshooting

Top feels too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If between sizes, consider sizing up for a slightly looser fit, though this may slightly reduce thermal efficiency.

Zipper is stiff

Gently work the zipper up and down a few times. If still stiff, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the zipper teeth.

Loss of thermal properties over time

Ensure proper washing and drying as per care instructions. Avoid harsh detergents or high heat, which can degrade fabric fibers.
