The winter season is just around the corner and many of you are looking forward to a good skiing. Have you got your ski equipment ready yet? How about adding quality functional thermal clothing? Do you know what attributes should meet really good quality thermal clothing and how to choose such clothing correctly?
How to choose the right thermal underwear?
In the case of thermal clothing, it is important to reach for the right size. Functional thermal underwear should fit snugly against the skin so that it can perform its function properly. However, it is important to think that the clothing is not too tight and doesn't restrict our movement.
The outfit is perfect to layer. Layering in 3 steps is suitable:
Start with a layer that will be snug against the body.
It is in the first step that you choose a snug-fitting thermalwear that fulfills all the necessary functions, is comfortable and does not restrict us.
Humidity control
Clothing made of Prolene fibre acts directly as a second layer of skin. Unlike cotton, it does not absorb moisture, but wicks it away from the skin, thanks to the fibre, which is also antimicrobial and therefore reduces unpleasant odours, ensures hygienic freshness and prevents the growth of bacteria. Thanks to this benefit, you can enjoy winter skiing without feeling damp and sweat on your body.
Lightness
None of us wants to feel "overwhelmed" by a lot of thick and airless clothes during sports. Karpathia thermal wear is made of lightweight Prolen fiber, which is the lightest fiber in comparison with all kinds of fibers in the world. For comparison, it is 50% lighter than cotton. This benefit allows for better performance in sports as performance is not affected by the increased weight of the garment. In addition, it is easy to care for, quick drying and as it contains active silver ions, it is also antibacterial and protects you from trapping bacteria and viruses.
Thermal insulation
One of the important functions is thermal insulation. The latter should make us feel warm in winter without unnecessary sweating and is the key to real comfort in any movement. In all kinds of sports and in all weather, it ensures our body is at the ideal temperature and prevents high cold or heat from coming into contact with the skin. Thus, you will be adequately warm while skiing and you can enjoy the sport to the fullest without restrictions.
The second in order is the warm layer
Now it's the turn of the sweatshirt, sweater and appropriate socks. Many people like to wear a fleece sweatshirt or a wool sweater to keep us warm in the cold and cold. It is important to choose a material that is not too thick, but still has a warming function.
Keep your feet warm with quality socks. Reach for the solution that will bring you the most benefits. Karpathia socks have an antibacterial function in addition to their basic function to keep you warm. Thanks to their silver ion content, they are also suitable for those whose feet sweating causes discomfort.
A layer comes on top to protect
The last, but very important layer is the outerwear, which protects our body from various weather conditions. Choose a jacket that is waterproof and suitable for the wind. On the slopes, the weather may not always be ideal, so our choice should be tailored to be prepared for any conditions.
