FAQs

What is a base layer used for?

A base layer is designed to be worn directly against the skin to regulate body temperature. It wicks moisture away, keeping you dry and comfortable, whether you're performing in cold or warm conditions.

How should this base layer fit?

It should fit snugly against the body, almost like a second skin, but without feeling restrictive. This close fit is essential for its moisture-wicking and thermal regulation properties to work effectively.

Can this be worn as an outer layer?

While it can be worn alone in mild conditions or indoors, it is primarily designed as an undergarment. It does not offer significant insulation on its own for very cold weather, nor does it provide weather protection like wind or rain resistance.

Is this base layer suitable for all sports?

Yes, its design focusing on moisture-wicking, breathability, and freedom of movement makes it suitable for a wide range of active sports and training activities where temperature and sweat management are important.

What materials is this base layer made from?

The shell is 92% Polyester and 8% Lycra (for Black and other colors; Grey Marl is 90% Polyester / 10% Lycra). The mesh panels are 82% Polyester and 18% Elastane.

How do I choose the correct size for my child?

Refer to the product's sizing chart. As a general guide, select the size that corresponds to your child's age group and typical clothing size for a snug, comfortable fit.

Troubleshooting

Base layer feels uncomfortable or restricts movement.

Ensure the correct size has been chosen. A base layer should be snug, but not constricting. Check that it is worn smoothly without any bunching or twisting underneath outer layers.

Child feels too hot or sweaty despite Optivent technology.

Ensure outer layers are also breathable and not trapping heat. In very high temperatures or intense activity, any garment can feel warm. Consider pairing with lighter outer layers or using it in cooler conditions.

Base layer retains odor after washing.

Wash immediately after use. Use a sports-specific detergent designed to tackle athletic odors. Avoid using too much detergent, as residue can trap odors. An occasional soak in white vinegar (diluted with water) before washing can also help.

Fabric appears to be losing elasticity or fit.

Review care instructions. Exposure to high heat during washing or drying can damage LYCRA® fibres. Ensure cold or warm water is used for washing and air drying or low tumble dry is practiced.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Simply put the base layer on as the first layer of clothing, directly against the skin, before any other sports attire. Ensure it fits snugly but comfortably to maximize its moisture-wicking and thermal regulation properties.

Compatibility:

This base layer is designed to be worn under sports jerseys, training tops, or other athletic apparel. It pairs well with shorts, track pants, and other sportswear, providing an essential foundation for any athletic outfit. It is suitable for a wide range of sports including football, rugby, running, and general training.

Care:

Proper care is essential to maintain the performance and longevity of your Sondico base layer. Always refer to the care label inside the garment for specific instructions.

  • Washing: Machine washable. Use a gentle cycle with cold or warm water.
  • Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach, as these can damage the fabric's integrity and wicking properties.
  • Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If using a dryer, tumble dry on low heat. High heat can damage the LYCRA® fibres and affect the garment's elasticity.
  • Ironing: Not recommended.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Keep away from fire.
