Short sleeve baselayer tops lie directly against your skin and can be worn as a single layer in summer. When it gets colder, they work well under a long-sleeve top or jacket. To be used for sports, short-sleeved baselayers shouldn’t be made from cotton – instead tops made of synthetic fibres, merino wool or a material mix are best. These fibres offer properties needed for sports – such as breathability and moisture regulation. Synthetic fibres dry extremely quickly and are very robust, while merino wool is odour-inhibiting and warms more effectively. Short-sleeve baselayer tops are available from Addnature in various colours and shapes, from skin-tight with compression effects to more casual fits.
