FAQs
What makes the fabric breathable?
The blend of bamboo, Tencel, and spandex creates a fabric that allows air to pass through while efficiently wicking moisture away from the skin, preventing a clammy feeling.
Can I wear these for high-intensity activities?
Yes, the breathable and moisture-wicking properties make them suitable for activities that involve physical exertion, helping to regulate body temperature.
Are these suitable for women?
While designed for a male fit, some women may find them suitable depending on their body shape and preferred fit, but a dedicated women's baselayer might offer a more tailored fit.
How do I ensure the best fit?
Refer to the Dickies sizing chart for men's waist and inseam measurements to select the appropriate size. The elasticated waist and ribbed ankles contribute to a flexible fit.
What is the gsm of the fabric?
The fabric has a weight of 180 grams per square meter (gsm), indicating a substantial yet not overly heavy thermal layer.
How often should I wash these?
Wash as needed based on usage. Following the care instructions will help maintain the integrity and performance of the fabric over time.
Troubleshooting
Long Johns feel too warm indoors
These are designed for thermal insulation and may be too warm for indoor or mild conditions. Consider wearing them only when significant warmth is needed.
Elasticated waist is too tight or loose
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Check the product sizing guide for accurate measurements. The elastic is designed to be snug but not restrictive.
Fabric feels less breathable after washing
Avoid using fabric softeners during washing, as they can clog the fibers and reduce breathability. Follow the recommended care instructions precisely.
