FAQs

What activities is this baselayer best suited for?

This baselayer is ideal for fitness, walking, hiking, and other cold weather outdoor pursuits where maintaining core body warmth is important.

What is the fabric blend of this top?

The fabric is a blend of 65% polyester and 35% viscose, designed for thermal retention and comfort.

How do I adjust ventilation?

The top features a half-zip at the neck, which can be easily opened to allow for increased airflow and ventilation when you start to feel too warm.

Can I wear this baselayer on its own?

While it can be worn on its own in mild conditions, it is primarily designed as a baselayer to be worn under other garments for optimal warmth in colder weather.

How should I wash this garment?

Machine wash at a maximum of 40°C. Do not bleach, tumble dry on low heat, iron on a cool setting, and do not dry clean.

Does this top offer significant insulation for extreme cold?

This top provides good thermal insulation for moderate to cool conditions. For extreme cold, layering additional garments over this baselayer would be recommended.

Troubleshooting

Top feels too tight

Ensure you have selected the correct size. The top is designed for a close, athletic fit; consider if a larger size would be more comfortable for your intended use.

Reduced thermal performance over time

Follow the recommended washing instructions carefully. Over-washing with harsh detergents or high heat can degrade the fabric's thermal properties. Avoid fabric softeners, which can clog the fibers.

Zipper is stiff

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.
