The main function of a ski base layer is to retain body heat without making you feel like you are in a sauna, especially when doing intense sporting activities. The fabric of the thermal base layers must therefore be breathable, i.e. any excess heat, and sweat in particular, is quickly eliminated. Here is our advice for choosing the right ski base layer.

If you are going to the mountains and you are going to practice winter sports like skiing, sledging or hiking, it is important to be well wrapped up. This means feeling warm when it's cold, and feeling fine when it's hot. The mesh of thermal base layers should retain body heat, but should let sweat through. In this way, neither the body nor the clothes will be wet, so you don't feel cold. It is when the sweat soaks the fabric and the humidity cools down that you start to feel cold. The technology behind the ski base layer has developed a lot in recent decades. The tops can have crewnecks or turtlenecks, and can have a more or less loose fit.

The trousers are also thermal base layers that protect the whole leg. They have the same insulating and breathable properties. In this case, the fabric must have stretch properties so that the sportsman or woman can move freely during all their activities. However, thermal base layers are just one of several items of clothing needed to protect your body. The ski jumpers and jackets that complement your outfit, should not be overlooked. Each one plays a key role in protecting you against the cold. The jumper provides insulation while the ski jacket is windproof and waterproof. We offer a wide range of men's thermal base layers, women's thermal base layers and children's thermal base layers.
