FAQs

Is this base layer suitable for sports other than riding?

Yes, the technical fabric, breathability, and freedom of movement make it suitable for various active pursuits where temperature regulation and sun protection are beneficial.

How do I know if I've chosen the right size?

The base layer should fit snugly like a second skin to maximize its performance features. Refer to the size guide and ensure it allows for unrestricted movement without being too tight.

Can I wear this on its own in warm weather?

Yes, the UPF50+ protection and breathable fabric make it suitable for wearing on its own in warm, sunny conditions. The quarter zip allows for adjustable ventilation.

What does UPF50+ protection mean?

UPF50+ indicates that the fabric provides a very high level of protection against ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun, blocking over 98% of UV rays.

How often should I wash the base layer?

It's recommended to wash the base layer after each significant use to maintain hygiene and fabric performance. Follow the care instructions for best results.

Will this base layer be too hot for summer riding?

The technical fabric is designed for temperature regulation and includes vented underarms for airflow. While it offers protection, its lightweight nature and breathability aim to keep riders comfortable even in warmer conditions.

What is the benefit of the flatlock stitching?

Flatlock stitching creates a very low-profile seam that lies flat against the skin, significantly reducing the risk of chafing and irritation, especially during repetitive movements like riding.

Troubleshooting

Garment feels restrictive

Ensure you have selected the correct size. The 360 stretch fabric should offer freedom of movement.

Chafing occurs during wear

Verify the garment is worn correctly with seams lying flat against the skin. Ensure no undergarments are bunching up.

Fabric feels damp after activity

While the fabric is sweat-wicking, extreme exertion may lead to some dampness. Ensure adequate ventilation. Allow the garment to dry completely between wears.

Stitching appears to be coming undone

Check care label for correct washing instructions. Avoid harsh detergents or high heat drying which can damage seams.
