Product Information

Full details

This women's midlayer from Dare 2b is designed for adult females seeking warmth and breathability during outdoor activities like frosty trail starts and tough ascents. Its key benefit is advanced stretch ILUS fabric with a thermal fleece backing that moves with you, while fighting windchill and odor. A potential caveat is that while it offers UV shielding, it is not a primary protection against heavy rain. Key features include thermal insulation, moisture-wicking properties, and convenient zipped pockets.

FAQs

What type of outdoor activities is this midlayer best suited for?

It is ideal for activities like hiking, trekking, trail running, and climbing in cool to cold weather, especially when movement and breathability are key.

Can this midlayer be worn as an outer layer?

It can function as an outer layer in dry, cool conditions. However, it is not waterproof and offers limited wind protection compared to a dedicated shell, so layering is recommended for wet or very windy weather.

How effective is the odour control treatment?

The synthetic antibacterial treatment helps to inhibit the growth of odor-causing bacteria, allowing for extended wear between washes. It is effective for typical outdoor activity durations.

What does UPF 50+ mean?

UPF 50+ indicates that the fabric blocks at least 98% of the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays, providing excellent sun protection for exposed skin.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Refer to the Dare 2b sizing chart for women. Ensure the garment fits comfortably without being too tight or too loose, allowing for layering underneath and full range of motion.

Is this garment suitable for very cold winter conditions?

As a midlayer, it provides good insulation. For very cold winter conditions, it is best worn as part of a layering system with a warm base layer underneath and a protective outer shell on top.

Can the zipped chest pocket hold a smartphone?

The invisible zip chest pocket is suitable for small essentials. The exact dimensions may vary, but it is generally intended for items like keys, cards, or a small MP3 player, rather than larger smartphones.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels less breathable than expected.

Ensure the garment is clean and free of detergent residue. Over time, dirt and oils can reduce breathability. Follow care instructions for optimal performance.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. If it persists, check for any fabric caught in the teeth. A small amount of graphite from a pencil can sometimes lubricate the zipper.

Garment has developed an odor despite the treatment.

While the treatment reduces odor, intense activity can still lead to smells. Ensure proper washing as per care instructions. Consider an extra rinse cycle.
