FAQs

What is the main benefit of the UV50+ protection?

The UV50+ protection significantly shields the wearer's skin from harmful ultraviolet radiation, reducing the risk of sunburn during extended periods outdoors.

How does the technical fabric help with comfort?

The technical fabric is designed to regulate body temperature by wicking sweat away from the skin and allowing for breathability, especially with the vented underarms, keeping the wearer dry and comfortable.

Can this base layer be worn in cold weather?

This is a short-sleeve base layer. While its technical fabric helps manage temperature, it is best suited for moderate weather or as a base layer under warmer clothing (like fleeces or jackets) in colder conditions.

Is the fabric suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, the fabric is described as silky-smooth with ultra-soft seams and flatlock stitching to help prevent chafing and reduce bulk, making it comfortable even for sensitive skin.

How should I wash the base layer?

The base layer is machine washable at 30°C. It should be washed with similar colours, and care should be taken not to bleach or tumble dry it. Iron on a low heat setting if necessary.

Does the base layer have any odor-control properties?

Yes, the base layer features anti-microbial properties, which help to inhibit the growth of odor-causing bacteria, keeping the garment fresher for longer.

What does 360° stretch mean for the wearer?

360° stretch means the fabric can stretch in all directions, providing complete freedom of movement without feeling restrictive, which is ideal for active sports and play.

Troubleshooting

Garment feels restrictive.

Ensure the correct size has been selected. The 360° stretch fabric is designed for freedom of movement, so a restrictive feel may indicate the size is too small.

Skin irritation or chafing.

Confirm the seams are lying flat. The ultra-soft seams and flatlock stitching are designed to prevent this, but ensure the garment is worn correctly and not inside out if that causes irritation.

Base layer feels too warm.

This is a technical base layer designed for temperature regulation. If it feels too warm, consider wearing it in cooler conditions or in situations where significant activity is expected to allow the ventilation to work effectively.
