FAQs

Is this shirt suitable for summer use?

Yes, the lightweight 120g/m2 grid fabric is highly breathable and excellent for moisture management in milder mountain conditions.

How often do I need to wash it?

Thanks to the Polygiene StayFresh technology, the garment resists odor build-up, meaning it can be worn for several days of activity before needing a wash.

Can I wear this as a mid-layer?

While intended primarily as a base layer, its construction allows it to be worn as a light mid-layer over a thinner tee in cool conditions.

What is the primary benefit of the grid fabric?

The grid structure increases the surface area for evaporation, allowing the fabric to wick moisture faster and dry more quickly than flat-knit alternatives.

Will the zipper cause chafing against my neck?

The collar is low-profile and features a bonded zip specifically designed to reduce irritation in that area.

How does the slim fit affect sizing?

The slim fit is designed for high-output activities. If you are between sizes or prefer more room for movement, you may want to consider sizing up.

Troubleshooting

Garment feels too restrictive around the chest or shoulders

The Ignis has a slim-fit design intended for efficiency. If discomfort persists, consider that this model is not designed for a loose, casual fit.

Visible signs of wear at seam points

Ensure that your pack straps are adjusted correctly; even flatlocked seams can experience abrasion under extreme, repetitive friction from heavy gear.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent moisture management in varied conditions
  • Fast-drying grid fabric enhances breathability
  • Anti-microbial treatment reduces need for frequent washing
  • Comfortable flatlocked seams prevent chafing
  • Effective ventilation via deep front zipper

Cons

  • Slim fit may feel too tight for some users
  • Limited to specific performance-focused activities
  • Requires careful sizing due to athletic cut

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because the Ignis features a slim fit, it is compatible with most standard technical layering systems. For best results, pair it directly against the skin under a fleece mid-layer. Regarding care, the garment should be machine washed in cold water. To preserve the effectiveness of the Polygiene odor control and the integrity of the synthetic fibers, avoid using heavy fabric softeners or bleach. Always hang dry or tumble dry on the lowest setting to prevent heat damage to the technical grid fabric.
