FAQs
What is Powerstretch fabric?
Powerstretch is a type of fabric that combines a durable nylon or polyester outer face with a soft brushed polyester inner. It offers excellent four-way stretch, thermal properties, and breathability, making it ideal for activewear.
Is this suitable for very cold weather?
The Fusalp Mario Thermal Layer is designed as a warm mid-layer. For extremely cold conditions, it is intended to be worn in conjunction with an insulating base layer and a protective outer shell.
How do I determine the correct size?
The garment is designed to be true to size. If you are typically between sizes, it is recommended to choose the larger size for a comfortable fit as a mid-layer.
Can this be worn as a base layer?
While it offers thermal properties, its design as a mid-layer with specific stretch and insulation makes it best suited for wearing over a thinner base layer for optimal performance and comfort.
What does 'heritage-inspired style' mean?
This refers to the design elements, such as the contrasting stripes on the sleeves and the overall cut, that evoke classic or traditional athletic apparel styles.
How often should I wash this thermal layer?
Wash as needed based on usage. Frequent washing can wear down fabric over time, so follow care instructions carefully to maximize longevity.
Troubleshooting
Fabric feels stiff after washing
Ensure no fabric softener was used. Re-wash separately with a mild detergent if necessary, and air dry.
Reduced stretch or elasticity
Avoid using fabric softener and ensure the garment is not over-dried. The Powerstretch fabric may need time to regain its full elasticity after washing.
Pilling on the brushed surface
This can occur with friction. Ensure zippers are closed during washing and avoid rough contact with abrasive surfaces.
