Exceptional Base Layer
I have UA Base 2.0, 3.0, and 4.0 and they are truly amazing garments. If you've never owned a good base layer, you might not realize just how useful they are and why you would want different grades. In the winter (or if you're inclined to visit the snow for fun) these garments allow you to have a core layer of warmth that also wicks away sweat under active usage. The higher number, the more warmth retention (and the higher the price, for a reason that escapes me). I wear my 2.0 under normal jeans when the temp drops below 50, 3.0 for below 30, and the 4.0 below 10. Paired with a quality cordura shell, I wear just the UA Base and the shell in almost all snow sports conditions and I'm dry and comfortable in a way that cannot be obtained otherwise.Cautionaries:1) As with all wicking fabrics, these will "smell" quickly when you sweat (all non-silvered wicking fabrics do this) - washing with a capful of pre-diluted clorox makes them perfect, IMHO2) While the outer fabric layer doesn't naturally pill, it will if you rub it against something abrasive, such as rough belt or velcro... do not wash with anything bearing exposed "rough" velcro.3) Try them on first - they should feel like tights. Bagginess of any kind will reduce performance.4) It's socks over leg cuffs, pants over shirt tails for most warmth - enjoy!Ver másVer menos
