Dare 2b Women's Emerging III Stretch Midlayer - Blue

This midlayer is designed to provide warmth, breathability, and freedom of movement during outdoor activities like hiking, climbing, and trail running in cool to cold weather.

It uses a synthetic, chemical-free antibacterial treatment that inhibits the growth of odor-causing bacteria, keeping the garment fresher for longer.

As a midlayer, it's designed to be worn over a base layer and under a waterproof/windproof outer shell for maximum warmth. It provides significant warmth but may require additional layers in extreme cold.

The UPF 50+ rating means the fabric blocks over 98% of harmful UV radiation, offering excellent sun protection, which is important even on cloudy days or at higher altitudes.

Yes, in dry, cool weather, it can be worn as an outer layer. However, it is not waterproof and may not provide adequate wind protection in harsh conditions.

SEAMSMART technology refers to engineered, seamless construction which enhances comfort, prevents chafing, and allows for greater freedom of movement.

It is made from 94% polyester and 6% elastane stretch fabric with an oval fleece backing.

Ensure no fabric softener was used during washing. Rinse thoroughly and air dry.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free any obstructions. A small amount of graphite from a pencil can sometimes lubricate the teeth.

Ensure washing instructions are followed precisely. Persistent odors may indicate that the treatment is wearing off after extensive use.

Refer to the size chart for accurate measurements before purchasing. This midlayer is designed for an athletic fit; consider layering options for different fit preferences.
