Product Information

Full details

The Dare 2b Lowline II Midlayer is designed for adult women seeking a versatile and eco-conscious mid-layer for outdoor activities. Its key benefit is providing lightweight warmth, breathability, and UV protection, making it ideal for hiking, running, or everyday wear. A potential caveat is its primary function as a mid-layer, meaning it may require additional outer layers in very cold or wet conditions. This sweater is crafted from recycled polyester and elastane, offering a stretchy, quick-drying, and odor-resistant experience, featuring a practical half-zip for adjustable ventilation.

FAQs

What activities is this midlayer best suited for?

It is ideal for moderate to high-intensity outdoor activities such as hiking, running, cycling, and general activewear, especially during transitional seasons or as a layering piece in colder weather.

How effective is the odour resistance?

The synthetic, chemical-free antibacterial treatment helps to reduce odour build-up during active use. While effective for typical wear, heavy or prolonged use may eventually reduce its efficacy, and proper washing is still essential.

Can I wear this as an outer layer in cold weather?

It is designed as a mid-layer, providing warmth and breathability. For very cold conditions, it is recommended to wear an additional insulated or waterproof outer layer over it.

How much recycled material is used?

The garment is made from 95% recycled polyester and 5% elastane, with the polyester component utilizing approximately 15 recycled plastic bottles per garment.

What does UPF 50+ mean?

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

Is the fit designed to be tight or loose?

The midlayer has a standard fit designed for comfort and layering. The stretch fabric allows for a close yet comfortable fit that doesn't restrict movement.

What is ILUS Stretch fabric?

ILUS Stretch is Dare 2b's proprietary fabric technology that combines polyester and elastane to create a material that is stretchy, lightweight, breathable, and quick-drying, suitable for active performance wear.

Troubleshooting

Garment feels damp after activity.

Ensure the garment is not too tight, allowing for air circulation. Check that the washing process did not involve fabric softeners, which can hinder wicking. Wash and dry thoroughly as per care instructions.

Odour persists after washing.

Use a small amount of specialized sports wash or vinegar in the wash cycle to help break down odor-causing bacteria. Ensure the garment is fully dried, as dampness can encourage odor.

Fabric feels less stretchy than before.

Avoid high heat during washing or drying, as this can degrade elasticity. Ensure no fabric softener was used, as it can coat fibers and reduce stretch.

Stitching appears to be coming undone.

Gently trim any loose threads with scissors. Avoid pulling on threads. If significant damage occurs, contact customer support for potential repair or replacement options.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This midlayer is designed for layering. It pairs effectively with base layers, active tops, and outerwear such as fleece jackets or waterproof shells. It is suitable for various outdoor pursuits like hiking, running, climbing, and general activewear.

Care Instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 30°C (86°F) with a mild liquid detergent.
  2. Bleaching: Do not use bleach.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry.
