Full details

FAQs
Is this base layer suitable for very cold weather?
No, the Aubrion React Sleeveless Base Layer is specifically designed for comfort in warmer weather. Its lightweight construction and moisture-wicking properties are optimized for heat.
What does 'body fit' mean?
Body fit refers to a close-fitting design that contours to the body's shape, offering a second-skin feel for minimal restriction and optimal performance.
How do I know if I need a size larger?
If you prefer a less snug fit or are between sizes, consider ordering one size up. However, the design intends for a close fit to enhance its performance features.
Can I wear this for activities other than riding?
Yes, the performance features such as moisture management and 4-way stretch make it suitable for various athletic activities in warm weather, like running, gym workouts, or hiking.
Does the UPF50+ protection wash out over time?
UPF protection in modern fabrics is generally durable and designed to last the lifetime of the garment, provided the care instructions are followed correctly.
What is the benefit of the chin guard?
The chin guard on the 1/4 zip prevents the zipper pull from irritating or chafing the skin on your neck, especially during movement.
Troubleshooting
Base layer feels too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size by consulting the brand's sizing chart. The 'body fit' is designed to be close-fitting; consider if a different fit type might be preferable.
Moisture-wicking seems less effective
Check that the garment is clean. Fabric softeners or residues from harsh detergents can impede moisture-wicking performance. Wash with a mild detergent as per care instructions.
Zipper is stiff or catching
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Ensure there are no fabric threads caught in the mechanism. A small amount of lubricant (like graphite from a pencil) on the zipper teeth can sometimes help.
