FAQs
What type of activities is this midlayer best suited for?
This midlayer is engineered for outdoor activities such as running, hiking, coastal training, and hybrid activities involving both land and water, thanks to its quick-dry, UV-protective, and durable properties.
How does the Quick-Dry & Fresh fabric work?
The fabric is a lightweight polyester/elastane blend that efficiently wicks moisture away from the skin, accelerating drying time and incorporating an antibacterial treatment to repel odour-causing bacteria.
Is the hood adjustable?
The hood is a grown-on elasticated design, providing a snug fit without external adjustment cords.
Can this be worn in saltwater?
Yes, it is specifically suitable for activities in seawater, designed for durability in such environments.
What is the UPF rating?
The garment offers UV protection with a UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) rating of 50+.
How should I wash this garment?
Machine wash cold with similar colors. Avoid bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or line dry. Do not iron or dry clean.
What does SEAMSMART technology mean?
SEAMSMART technology refers to the garment's construction designed for seamless integration, allowing for maximum freedom of movement and reducing potential chafing points.
Troubleshooting
Fabric feels sticky or retains odor after washing.
Ensure you are using a detergent free of fabric softeners, as these can clog fabric pores and reduce wicking ability. Wash in cold water and rinse thoroughly. Consider a vinegar rinse before the main wash cycle for stubborn odors.
Thumb loops feel restrictive.
The thumb loops are part of the design for a secure fit. If they feel restrictive, try a size up or ensure your hand movements are within the natural stretch of the fabric.
UV protection seems diminished.
UV protection is inherent to the fabric's construction. Regular washing according to care instructions will help maintain its effectiveness. Significant wear and tear may eventually impact this, but it is designed for durability.
