Sondico Core Baselayer Tights - Red - 5-6 Years

A baselayer is the first layer of clothing worn directly against the skin. Its primary function is to manage moisture (wick sweat away from the body) and provide thermal insulation, helping to regulate body temperature during physical activity.

Yes, they can be worn on their own for activities like gym sessions or indoor sports. However, they are primarily designed to be a comfortable and supportive base layer, often worn under shorts or trousers for outdoor activities or in colder weather.

While they wick moisture, the compression fit and warmth-retaining properties make them more suitable for cool to cold weather. For warm weather activities, lighter, non-compression options are generally more comfortable.

These tights are sized by age group (e.g., 5-6 Years). It's best to choose based on the child's typical clothing size, keeping in mind the compression fit which is designed to be snug.

LYCRA® fibre is a brand of spandex or elastane, known for its exceptional elasticity and ability to stretch many times its original length and then return to its original shape. This provides comfort, fit, shape retention, and excellent freedom of movement.

Yes, they can be tumble dried on a low heat setting. However, air drying is recommended to extend the lifespan of the garment and maintain the integrity of the LYCRA® fibres and overall elasticity.

> Info needed: Specific UV protection information is not provided. While many synthetic fabrics offer some level of UV protection, this is not a stated feature for this product.

Yes, the Sondico Core Baselayer Tights are available in various colours and sizes. Please check the product page or retailer for other available variants to find the best fit for your child.

The Sondico Core Baselayer Tights feature a compression fit, which is designed to be snug. If the discomfort is significant, double-check the size against the child's measurements. Ensure they are worn correctly without bunching.

While flat lock seams are designed to minimise irritation, ensure the tights are clean and dry before wear. If irritation persists, consider the fit or if there's any sensitivity to the fabric blend.

These tights provide warmth as a baselayer. For very cold conditions, ensure they are paired with appropriate outer layers (e.g., insulated trousers). The effectiveness of a baselayer is also enhanced when dry.

Pilling can occur with synthetic fabrics due to friction. To minimise this, wash the tights inside out on a gentle cycle and avoid abrasive surfaces during wear and washing. Using a fabric shaver can help remove existing pills.
