Thermal Undershirts

Physical activity is welcome in winter and you do not have to give it up even when outdoor temperatures are pushing minus records, but besides the terrain, you must under no circumstances underestimate the appropriate clothing. There are several reasons for this.

In freezing weather the body expends far more energy, and fatigue generally sets in much faster too. The cold affects not only the respiratory system but also the joints and muscles, so prolonged exposure to cold can dramatically increase the risk of injury.

On the contrary, warm and functional clothing creates a feeling of pleasant warmth and well-being in all conditions. From this perspective, thermal underwear takes on particular importance, including thermal undershirts.

Thermal Undershirts as Part of Layering

Alongside a quality winter jacket, suitable footwear or thermal socks, thermal undershirts should be reached for in winter outdoor activities — within the recommended clothing layering system they are able to ensure optimal thermoregulation.

Thermal undershirts together with thermal bottoms wick moisture away from the body towards further clothing layers, keeping you dry and warm. For undershirts to not miss their thermoinsulating effect, however, they must, like thermal bottoms, follow the contours of your body as closely as possible. When choosing the right undershirt, therefore select from sizes XS, S, M, L, XL or XXL.

The Material Will Suit You

Thermal undershirts made from polyester fibres will ensure perfect comfort. They are pleasant to the touch and cause no uncomfortable itching sensations. At the same time you can expect adequate breathability, perfect moisture-wicking and excellent fit to the body. Thermal undershirts can therefore be worn not only during winter outdoor activities, but also to work.

If you are a true outdoor enthusiast or for some reason must spend extended time in the field even in extreme frost, consider thermal underwear from HELIKON – TEX.
