What do I need a sports vest for women for?
Ideal body climate, temperature regulation, sweat absorption - terms that are on everyone's lips. And rightly so, because climate management determines your well-being during sport. And your performance depends on it.
Optimal climate management is based on two pillars: Function and comfort. And this is exactly why you need baselayers such as functional underwear tops for women that really work. With thermo-regulating, i.e. cooling and warming properties, our functional sports underwear tops have a temperature-regulating effect. Excellent breathability and a short drying time of the functional underwear top also make a decisive contribution to the ideal body climate. With a constant body temperature of 37°C, you can concentrate fully on your movement, whether you're cycling to work or climbing the next summit on touring skis.
By the way, are you familiar with Skinfit MODULARIO? With our unique clothing system, we are pursuing precisely this goal - 37°C, your optimum operating temperature. The best thing about the MODULARIO system: you only need a few functional clothing items and you are perfectly equipped for many situations - see for yourself!
Skinfit MODULARIO - with the layering principle for optimum climate management
The onion principle, layered look, layered clothing. The layering principle has long been tried and tested when it comes to perfect climate regulation, both in sports and in everyday life. Depending on your plans and ambitions and, of course, your physical constitution and the external conditions, you can combine temperature-regulating functional underwear with mid-layer sports shirts, functional trousers and outlayer jackets. All you need is a few items in each layer, skilfully combined, and you'll be perfectly equipped for countless situations all year round.
You can find our range of modular items in the online shop. There are five modules: KLIMA, AERO, VENTO, CALDO and SCUDO, which assign baselayers, midlayers and outlayers to the three layers:
- Regulation layer
- Insulation layer
- Protection layer
Our KLIMA functional underwear collection with corresponding sports tops for women is part of the first layer with its thermo-regulating properties. As you can see, you can easily deduce the main properties of our sportswear from the respective module.
What features should a good sports vest for women have?
A women's functional underwear top from our KLIMA collection is characterised by the fact that it keeps you dry and at the ideal temperature. And it does this both during strenuous activities and at lower intensities, for example when a period of exertion is followed by a recovery phase.
In general, all functional underwear tops for women that you can buy online are temperature-regulating, breathable, quick-drying and have a bacteriostatic effect.
When choosing your baselayer tank top, look out for the following awards in the product descriptions:
- Thermoregulation
- Breathability
- Sweat absorption and transfer or moisture regulation
- Short drying time, i.e. quick-drying properties
- Neutral odour and antibacterial properties
In order for a women's functional underwear sports top to provide you with the best possible support, it is important that the features are tailored precisely to you and your plans. That's why the KLIMA collection is finely customised and divided into lines. You can find sports vests for women at:
- KLIMA Light
- KLIMA Soft
- KLIMA Pro
- KLIMA Calima
KLIMA Light functional tops for women are functional vests for hot days. They impress with their cooling properties by quickly absorbing perspiration and releasing it to the outside, where it is distributed over a large area and evaporates, creating a pleasant cooling effect.
KLIMA Soft underwear sports tops are particularly soft and popular as a comfortable all-rounder for sports, under a blouse at work and in your free time.
A KLIMA Pro functional top for women is the right choice for intensive sessions even in cooler temperatures, as the large air pocket ensures perfect warmth and a dry feeling on the skin.
KLIMA Calima Sport Tops are popular as functional underwear for intensive, particularly sweat-inducing sessions because the combination of two functional fabrics has a thermo-regulating and temperature-regulating, bacteriostatic and quick-drying effect thanks to micro-perforation and embedded carbon fibre.
What is the best material for a women's sports top?
When not all athletes are the same and ambitions and plans differ, there can't be one best material for sports vests for every woman. Because one thing is certain: the materials determine whether and to what extent a women's functional underwear top is temperature-regulating, breathable, quick-drying and odour-neutralising.
First of all, we differentiate between women's underwear sports tops made from natural fibres and sports vests made from synthetic fibres. At Skinfit, we only use synthetic materials because we believe their advantages outweigh the disadvantages. For example, we can specifically vary the properties of synthetic fabrics by adjusting the fibre thickness and choosing different synthetic fibres.
When synthetic fibres - unlike certain natural materials - are not antibacterial and an odour-neutralising effect is not achieved through a special structure, we integrate carbon fibres or silver ions for the bacteriostatic effect. Special fabric structures create additional advantages. For example, micro-perforations can be used to improve ventilation in key areas.
The right fit of functional underwear tops for women
You will hardly find a base layer that works perfectly and fits loosely. This is because the close-fitting cut determines the extent to which temperature-regulating and breathable properties are utilised. Logically, how is a loose-fitting women's sports undershirt supposed to fully absorb sweat if it only occasionally touches the body? A loose-fitting sports vest can hardly provide any warmth by trapping air, as it has to fit close to the body. In addition to functionality, athletic fit cuts also determine the comfort of a functional vest for women. Think of it like this: The close fit prevents chafing when you wear your baselayer under a midlayer or outlayer. At the same time, you should make sure that your sports underwear top doesn't make you feel constricted because it's too tight. So make sure you have enough freedom of movement despite the close-fitting cut.
Clever details for extra comfort in a women's sports top
Skinfit KLIMA functional underwear tops not only keep you dry and at the ideal temperature. Thanks to their small pack size and low weight, they are barely noticeable when stowed in your rucksack. Functional underwear tops are therefore perfect for taking with you as a change of clothing. Soft fabrics and flat seams also increase your comfort.
You have probably already discovered the right sports top for women in the online shop. By now at the latest, choosing your sports top should be easy for you. Of course, we will also be happy to advise you in person. We look forward to seeing you in your local Skinfit shop.
