Why do I need a functional shirt for women?
The most important reason why a functional underwear shirt belongs in every wardrobe is easy to name: long-sleeved functional shirts ensure optimal climate management. Because they allow you to fully concentrate on your activities, highly functional shirts help you to achieve your personal best.
When you move, you get warm and will probably start to sweat sooner or later. Conversely, your body temperature drops when a period of exertion is followed by a period of relief. To prevent your body from overheating or cooling down, regulatory processes are automatically triggered. This costs energy. And this is where functional shirts for women come into play. Thanks to thermoregulation, they help you maintain your optimal body temperature. If this is as constant as possible at 37°C, your power is fully available for your performance.
By the way: Are you familiar with Skinfit MODULARIO? Did you know that functional underwear shirts for women are an important part of our unique system for functional clothing?
Skinfit MODULARIO – The unique clothing system for the highest demands
From experience, we know: There's something in it. And that's why we've packed the onion principle into a system for functional clothing: Skinfit MODULARIO. The advantage for you: with just a few functional clothing items, you'll always be well equipped for a range of activities.
You'll find numerous modular items in the online shop. The modules CLIMATE, AERO, VENTO, CALDO and SCUDO are assigned to one of the three layers according to their main properties:
- Baselayer (regulation layer)
- Midlayer (insulation layer)
- Outlayer (protection layer)
If you combine various items of sports clothing in a clever way, you will be well equipped for all year round.
A highly functional long-sleeved shirt for women, which you wear as the first layer directly on your body, plays an important, if not the most important role in terms of your performance. It goes without saying that the second layer will not be able to do its job if the base layer does not work properly, if your functional underwear shirt soaks up sweat instead of wicking it away.
Although you can rely on the Skinfit base layer items to provide perfect thermoregulation, we will explain the special properties of the KLIMA functional shirts for women. This way, you will know exactly which awards to look for when choosing from the online shop so that you buy the right functional shirt for you.
The most important features of the women's thermal functional shirt
First-class sports underwear shirts are characterised by two aspects: comfort and function. You can recognise high-quality functional T-shirts for women, such as a long-sleeved functional T-shirt for women or a functional T-shirt for women for hiking, by the fact that they cling to your body like a second skin, i.e. they do not pinch, bite or rub. On the other hand, thanks to thermoregulation and breathability, your body will always be at the ideal temperature and stay dry.
When buying a long-sleeved ladies' functional shirt, consider these properties:
- Thermoregulation
- Breathability
- Moisture regulation
- Short drying time, i.e. quick-drying properties
- Odour neutrality
Since the plans, preferences and constitutions of female athletes differ, there is obviously no one best functional shirt for every woman. That is why our KLIMA collection is divided into the following lines:
- KLIMA Soft
- KLIMA Pro
- KLIMA Pro Plus
- KLIMA Pro Ultra
- KLIMA Calima
Depending on the line of our KLIMA collection, certain functions are more or less pronounced. As a popular all-rounder, we recommend a KLIMA Soft functional shirt for women. If you are looking for a functional undershirt that will keep you warm and dry at the summit, even in the coldest of temperatures and windiest of conditions, then a KLIMA Pro Plus or a KLIMA Pro Ultra functional shirt with an integrated wind-blocking and thermal zone in the chest area is probably the right choice.
Various highly functional fabrics promise different properties. In other words, the material itself and its structure determine the extent to which a functional shirt can contribute to an ideal body climate.
While some manufacturers rely on natural fibres such as merino wool, we use synthetic fibres throughout for our functional shirts in the KLIMA collection, as well as for all our other functional clothing. In our view, the advantages of synthetic fabrics in terms of climate management outweigh the disadvantages, among other things because it is possible to specifically adapt properties such as thermoregulation, moisture transport or breathability by making subtle changes to the fibre thickness and choice of synthetic fibre.
In principle, functional clothing Baselayer items are cut close to the body. To ensure the correct size and ideal fit, you should always remember that the functional shirt for women should fit snugly against your body. This is the only way to ensure that the properties are fully utilised. In addition, this will prevent chafing under a midlayer and outlayer. Nevertheless, the fit should feel free of movement – elastic structures ensure this in all our articles in the KLIMA range.
Further features and comfortable details of the functional ladies“ shirt
The Skinfit KLIMA collection not only promises the best thermoregulation. Thanks to their small pack size, the ultra-light and highly functional shirts are not heavy in your rucksack, for example if you pack a functional shirt for women in long sleeves as a change of clothes.
A zip in the chest area allows for flexible ventilation. In stormy weather and strong gusts, you will notice how comfortable a stand-up collar can be as a windbreak. The seam construction is also sophisticated, because flat seams have the least potential for chafing.
