FAQs

What is the primary material of this midlayer?

The primary material is polyester, known for its quick-drying and moisture-wicking properties.

Is this midlayer suitable for very cold weather?

This midlayer is designed for comfort and moisture management, making it ideal as a layering piece. For very cold weather, it would typically be worn under an insulated jacket or a warmer outer layer.

How do I determine my size?

Refer to the brand's sizing chart, typically available on the retailer's website, and compare your measurements to find the best fit. This garment has a slim fit.

Can the thumb loops be tucked away?

The thumb loops are integrated into the cuffs and are not designed to be tucked away. They are part of the garment's construction for added functionality.

Are the pockets secure?

Yes, the midlayer features zipped pockets, providing secure storage for small personal items.

What is the best way to wash this midlayer to maintain its performance?

Machine wash at 30°C with similar colors, use a mild detergent, and avoid bleach. Tumble dry on low or hang dry. Proper care helps maintain the fabric's quick-dry and stretch properties.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels damp after activity.

While the fabric is quick-drying, intense activity may produce more moisture than it can immediately wick away. Ensure the garment is not too tight, which can restrict airflow, and consider layering with a more breathable outer shell if needed. Wash according to care instructions to maintain fabric performance.

Sleeves feel restrictive.

The midlayer is designed with a slim fit. If you find the sleeves restrictive, ensure you have selected the correct size. The thumb loops are intended to keep sleeves in place; ensure they are not stretched or damaged.

Zippers are stiff.

Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. A small amount of graphite from a pencil or a tiny drop of silicone-based lubricant can help ease stiffness. Avoid forcing the zipper.
