Product Information

Full details

This Aubrion React long sleeve base layer is designed for active young riders seeking comfort, coverage, and performance. Its key benefit is effective climate control and moisture management, keeping the rider dry and comfortable during activities. A minor caveat is its very fitted 'second-skin' feel, which might not suit everyone. This base layer features a body fit for unrestricted movement, rapid-dry technology, and UPF50+ protection.

FAQs

What is the main purpose of the Aubrion React base layer?

The primary purpose is to provide comfort, coverage, and performance support for active riders through climate control and moisture management.

Is this base layer suitable for all types of weather?

It is ideal for moderate to cool weather conditions, or as a performance layer in warmer weather due to its moisture-wicking properties. It's not designed as an outer layer for extreme cold or heat.

How do I ensure I pick the right size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by the retailer. The base layer is designed for a body-fit, 'second-skin' feel, so it should be snug but not uncomfortably tight.

Can I wear this base layer for activities other than riding?

Yes, its moisture-wicking and stretchy properties make it suitable for other sports and outdoor activities where comfort and performance are key.

What does UPF50+ mean?

UPF50+ stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor 50+. It indicates that the fabric blocks at least 98% of the sun's harmful UV rays, providing excellent sun protection.

How often should I wash this base layer?

It's best to wash the base layer after each significant use, especially if it has become sweaty, to maintain its performance and hygiene. Follow the care instructions for best results.

Will this base layer keep me warm in cold weather?

This base layer is designed for climate control and moisture management, providing a comfortable microclimate. For very cold weather, it should be layered with insulating mid-layers and an outer shell for warmth.

Troubleshooting

Base layer feels restrictive

Ensure you have selected the correct size. The body-fit design is intentional for a 'second-skin' feel; however, if it consistently feels too tight, consider if a larger size might be more comfortable for your preference.

Moisture not wicking effectively

Check that the garment is clean and free from residue. Fabric softeners or excessive detergent can reduce performance. Wash according to care instructions using a mild detergent without fabric softener.

Chafing at the neck

Ensure the 1/4 zip is fully down or secured properly. The chin guard should help prevent direct zipper contact with the skin. If irritation persists, try a different neckline base layer.
