Dare 2b Venture Stretch Midlayer - L

It's engineered for high-output activities like intense hiking, climbing, and mountain routes where warmth, breathability, and freedom of movement are crucial.

While it offers wind resistance, it is primarily designed as a midlayer. For very mild, calm conditions, it might function as an outer layer, but for optimal performance in varied weather, layering is recommended.

The fabric is treated or constructed with properties that inhibit the growth of odour-causing bacteria, helping to keep the garment fresh during extended wear.

ILUS Stretch is an advanced thermal fabric developed by Dare 2b, offering a combination of warmth, flexibility, and breathability, designed for active performance.

Refer to the brand's sizing chart and measure your chest, waist, and sleeve length accurately. Consider how you plan to layer underneath when selecting your size.

No, this midlayer is wind resistant and water repellent to a degree, but it is not waterproof. For protection against heavy rain, an appropriate waterproof outer shell is required.

Ensure the garment is clean. Dirt and residue can clog the fabric's pores. Check that you are not wearing overly insulating base layers that could trap heat.

Ensure you followed the care instructions, especially regarding fabric softener (which should not be used) and the drying temperature. Try tumble drying on low heat as recommended.

Check the garment for any damage to the fabric or seams. Ensure zippers are fully closed. The wind resistance is inherent to the fabric technology and should not diminish with proper care.
