Do I really need a functional T-shirt for women?
The fact that sports underwear should be worn during physical activity becomes clear at the latest when we recall the advantages of functional T-shirts for women or other sports underwear. If your ladies' sports shirt is breathable, quick-drying and thermoregulating, it will already provide the basis for the best temperature regulation and your optimal body climate. And if your body stays dry and at the ideal temperature, you can fully concentrate on the movement, whether you are cycling to work or climbing the summit on touring skis.
You are probably aware that thermoregulating properties counteract overheating, even when you are exerting yourself. Moisture-regulating functional T-shirts for women absorb sweat. Unlike cotton undershirts, for example, the fibres of our functional undershirts do not absorb moisture, but instead wick it away from the body. This means that you will always feel dry and will not freeze in wet, clammy clothing when your body temperature drops during a recovery phase. What's more, you don't have to use any energy for your body's own temperature regulation processes, because a suitable first layer T-shirt takes care of that for you.
By the way, do you know about our unique clothing system? Women's sports vests are part of our proven Skinfit MODULARIO concept.
Skinfit MODULARIO – the flexible clothing system for optimal climate management
Layer principle, layer look, onion principle, base layer, mid layer, shell layer, functional T-shirts, functional underwear, sports underwear, etc. We hear about it all the time, especially when it comes to the ideal body climate or temperature regulation and optimal body temperature. Depending on what you are planning to do and what the conditions are, you can flexibly combine suitable modular items from the different layers, for example baselayer functional T-shirts, midlayer shirts and outlayer jackets. With just a few MODULARIO functional clothing items, you are perfectly equipped for a wide range of activities.
You will find numerous Skinfit modular items in the online shop. In the Skinfit CLIMATE, AERO, VENTO, CALDO and SCUDO modules, you will find Skinfit functional clothing that is assigned to the following layers:
- baselayer (regulation layer)
- midlayer (insulation layer)
- shell layer (protection layer)
Accordingly, you can infer the main properties of the functional clothing from a module. For example, the CLIMATE collection belongs to the regulation layer, so you will find so-called women's baselayer items with temperature-regulating properties here.
With some Skinfit MODULARIO clothing you are well equipped for all seasons and for a wide range of activities if you combine the different layers skilfully.
Imagine it like this: Women's sports undershirts are worn as the first layer directly on the skin. In this respect, they already determine at the base whether temperature regulation and climate management of your entire sports outfit work. Of course, because how can a midlayer work if the base layer absorbs the moisture but does not pass it on to the next layer, the middle layer?

The right material for a functional T-shirt for women
The special properties of sports shirts for women are realised through the use of functional fabrics. This means that the choice of materials determines whether a women's sports shirt is breathable, cooling, warming and quick-drying.
Some manufacturers use women's functional T-shirts made of natural fibres such as merino wool, while other suppliers – like us – are convinced of the advantages of synthetic fibres. We consistently use synthetic materials in our KLIMA functional T-shirts for women, mainly because they allow the properties to be fine-tuned by making small adjustments to the fibre thickness and choice of synthetic fibre. By slightly varying the material composition and fibre thickness depending on the KLIMA line, you will find a wide range of sports underwear undershirts.

The right fit for functional underwear T-shirts for women
For maximum comfort and functionality, it is essential that your sports shirt for women fits snugly against your body, especially when it comes to functional underwear. That's why women's baselayers are cut to fit closely. When trying on, it's best to make sure that the sports undershirt fits snugly so that it doesn't pinch or rub you during movement. The athletic fit cut means that there are no chafing points when you put functional underwear T-shirts under a midlayer or shell layer. The onion principle is very important! Despite the tight fit, functional underwear such as sports undershirts for women should not restrict movement; you should always feel free and not restricted. The close fit is also important in terms of functionality, because breathability and thermoregulation are best when a sports shirt is worn directly on the skin.
