MicroSense
You train all year and want a light, quick-drying, odour-resistant base layer.
Comparison of Base Layers
Four base layers, four jobs. Compare fabric, fit and warmth, and pick the one that suits your training.
Base layers
Side by side
All four dry quickly and are made for paddling. The difference is in the fabric, the fit and the weather they're made for – from summer sun to winter cold.
