FAQs
Is this garment waterproof?
No, the Lowline Core Stretch Midlayer is designed for warmth and breathability, not as a waterproof outer shell.
Can I wear this as a standalone jacket?
It can be worn as an outer layer in mild, dry conditions, but it is primarily engineered as a midlayer for cold-weather activities.
How should I wash the antibacterial fabric?
Use a gentle, non-biological detergent and avoid fabric softeners, which can coat the fibers and interfere with the antibacterial finish.
Does this midlayer run true to size?
Yes, it is designed with a performance-oriented slim fit. If you prefer a looser feel for layering heavy items underneath, consider sizing up.
Is the fabric heavy?
No, the polyester construction is designed to be lightweight and efficient, providing warmth without the bulk of traditional heavy fleeces.
Troubleshooting
Garment feels damp during high-intensity activity
Ensure you are using a moisture-wicking base layer underneath, as the midlayer is designed to move sweat away from the body rather than absorb it.
Visible lint or pilling on the fabric
Avoid washing with abrasive fabrics like denim or garments with hook-and-loop fasteners; use a delicate wash bag if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Dare 2b midlayer, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can degrade the technical moisture-wicking and antibacterial finish of the polyester.
- Drying: Air drying is recommended. If using a dryer, select the lowest heat setting to prevent fiber damage and shrinking.
- Layering: This garment is compatible with standard shell jackets and base layers. Because it has a technical, slim fit, it works best when placed over a moisture-wicking base layer and under a waterproof shell.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the fabric's integrity.
