FAQs
Can this be worn as a standalone shirt?
While intended as a base layer, its classic design allows it to be worn as a standalone long-sleeve top in moderate weather.
Is this suitable for summer use?
This item is designed specifically for cooler weather to provide warmth, though the moisture-wicking properties are useful year-round.
Does the size 2-3 fit true to age?
It is designed to fit average children within the 2-3 year age range, but fits are intended to be snug to work effectively as a base layer.
How should I wash this garment?
Machine wash in cold water on a gentle cycle. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners.
Will it shrink in the wash?
Because it is made from polyester, it is highly resistant to shrinking provided it is not exposed to extreme heat during drying.
Troubleshooting
Garment feels damp after intense activity
Ensure the base layer is worn directly against the skin; wearing it over another shirt will prevent the wicking process.
Fabric holds onto static electricity
Avoid over-drying in the machine; air drying is recommended to prevent static buildup.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the moisture-wicking and anti-odour properties, avoid using fabric softeners during the laundry cycle, as these can coat the fibers and inhibit their performance. Wash the garment in cold water on a gentle cycle and hang it to dry rather than using a high-heat tumble dryer. This top is highly compatible with fleece mid-layers and waterproof outer shells, creating a modular clothing system that can be adjusted based on the external temperature.
