FAQs

What is Optivent technology?

Optivent technology is specifically engineered to maximize airflow and provide superior breathability, effectively wicking moisture away from your skin to keep you cool and dry during physical activity.

Can I wear this base layer on its own?

While designed primarily as a base layer for optimal performance and comfort, it can be worn on its own depending on the activity and ambient temperature. However, it may not provide sufficient warmth in very cold conditions without additional outer layers.

How should I wash my Sondico Core Base Long Sleeve?

This base layer is machine washable at 40 degrees Celsius. For best results and to preserve its performance features, wash with similar colors on a gentle cycle. Avoid using bleach, harsh detergents, and high heat during drying.

What does the LYCRA® fibre do?

LYCRA® fibre is incorporated to provide exceptional elasticity, stretch, and shape retention. This ensures long-lasting comfort and full freedom of movement, allowing the garment to adapt dynamically to your body's movements without restriction.

Is this product suitable for all sports?

Yes, its moisture-wicking, highly breathable, and flexible properties make it well-suited for a wide array of sports and physical activities, including running, cycling, football, gym workouts, and various outdoor training sessions.

Why does it have a rubberised grip hem?

The rubberised grip hem is strategically placed to keep the base layer securely in position around your waist. This prevents it from riding up or shifting during dynamic movements, ensuring a distraction-free and comfortable experience.

What materials is it made from?

The shell composition is 92% Polyester and 8% Lycra (for the Black variant; Grey Marl is 90% Polyester / 10% Lycra). The mesh panels are made from 82% Polyester and 18% Elastane, providing targeted ventilation and flexibility.

Is there any special safety advice for this product?

Yes, due to its synthetic material composition, it is crucial to keep the garment away from fire or extreme heat sources. Always adhere to the washing instructions to prevent material degradation.

Troubleshooting

Base layer rides up during activity.

Ensure the garment is correctly sized for a snug fit. The rubberised grip hem is designed to prevent this; if it still occurs, check if the fit is too loose, or if worn over incompatible fabrics that reduce grip. Consider sizing down if between sizes.

Feeling too warm or not breathing effectively.

Verify that no other layers are obstructing the Optivent technology. Ensure the garment is clean, as clogged fibers can reduce breathability. For intense workouts, consider pairing with highly breathable outer layers or adjusting the layers above.

Fabric seems less elastic or stretched out over time.

Ensure you are washing at the recommended 40 degrees Celsius. Exposure to higher temperatures during washing or drying can damage the LYCRA® fibres, reducing elasticity. Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, or excessive stretching during wear or storage.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional breathability through Optivent technology for a dry feel.
  • Optimal freedom of movement and lasting comfort thanks to LYCRA® fibre.
  • Secure fit that stays in place during activity due to the rubberised grip hem.
  • Durable and resilient material blend suitable for frequent use.
  • Easy care with machine washability at 40 degrees Celsius.

Cons

  • Requires adherence to specific washing temperature (40°C) to maintain integrity.
  • Predominantly synthetic material composition may not suit all preferences.
  • Designed primarily as a base layer, may need additional layers for sufficient warmth in very cold conditions.
  • Must be kept away from fire due to synthetic fabric properties.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Using your Sondico Core Base Long Sleeve is straightforward. Simply put it on as your first layer of clothing, directly against your skin. Ensure it fits snugly but comfortably to maximize its moisture-wicking and supportive properties. The rubberised grip hem should sit firmly around your waist.

Compatibility

This base layer is designed for adult males and is highly versatile. It can be worn under various athletic attire such as:

  • Team jerseys and kits: Provides an extra layer of comfort and performance.
  • Running jackets and vests: Enhances thermal regulation and moisture management.
  • Cycling tops: Reduces chafing and improves aerodynamics.
  • General workout clothes: Adds a performance edge to gym sessions or training.

Its form-fitting nature makes it compatible with almost any outer layer without adding bulk.

Care Instructions

Proper care is essential to maintain the performance and longevity of your base layer:

  1. Washing: Machine washable at 40 Degrees Celsius. Use a gentle cycle with similar colours. Avoid using bleach or harsh detergents, as these can degrade the fabric's properties.
  2. Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If using a dryer, select a low heat setting to prevent damage to the LYCRA® fibres. High heat can reduce elasticity and the garment's lifespan.
  3. Ironing: Not recommended. If necessary, use a very low heat setting and iron inside out.
  4. Safety Warning: Keep away from fire. As with most synthetic performance fabrics, exposure to open flames or extreme heat can cause the material to melt or ignite.
