The invention of heat-resistant underwear was preceded by many centuries of trial and error. Our ancestors wore unique vests under their outer clothing, woven from dry grass and fibrous materials. Spinning flax and wool contributed to the emergence underwear, vaguely reminiscent of the modern one. But only the development of organic chemistry made it possible to create high-quality thermal underwear of the first layer - clothing that reliably protects the body from hypothermia even in high humidity conditions. You can really buy good thermal underwear in Moscow at the Camouflage ru store!
High-quality thermal underwear removes moisture from the surface of the skin
By the end of the twentieth century, many natural and artificial materials were invented that effectively prevent the penetration of cold air into the body. However, for the title of real thermal underwear, the then sewing products for the most part, they did not apply: it was enough for the person wearing it to sweat in the cold, and inevitable hypothermia awaited him.
Cotton fabric, linen, and knitted wool, for all their advantages, have a serious drawback: they easily absorb moisture and very slowly, reluctantly evaporate it. Thermal underwear is characterized by excellent moisture absorption and a high rate of evaporation from the surface.
In combination with membrane tissue outerwear Cold weather thermal underwear removes sweat from the skin so effectively that the user does not even feel wet.

THERMAL UNDERWEAR CRAFT – FIRST LAYER
BASE LAYER: VENTILATING AND MOISTURE WICKING
Thermal underwear CRAFT is a functional underwear that can be worn on naked body. The main function of thermal underwear is to regulate body temperature by transporting moisture outward or to the next layer of clothing. This is achieved through special weaving of synthetic fibers that do not absorb moisture and are able to effectively evaporate it from its surface.
In order to receive best effect from using CRAFT thermal underwear, it must be combined with other layers of functional clothing. To ensure optimal performance and comfort, each layer complements the others and is equally important, regardless of weather conditions.
Many people believe that if you buy CRAFT thermal underwear, it will keep you warm. This is a wrong opinion! In fact, it can retain beneficial heat thanks to special weaving technologies, mixing fibers of different compositions, hollow threads and much more. But not right choice the second layer greatly reduces the functionality of thermal underwear.
It is the second layer of clothing (fleece, sweatshirts, pullovers) that performs the main function of warming the body (preserving useful heat). The third layer (jackets, pants) protects from rain and wind. Clothes of the second and third layers should be breathable and warm the body in cold weather. Only in this case will you get the maximum effect from using thermal underwear.
CRAFT thermal underwear is divided into 7 collections, which differ from each other in terms of application and functionality:
TEMPERATURE AND INTENSITY WHERE IT ALL STARTS
When creating CRAFT thermal underwear lines, we always start by determining the temperature and intensity at which it is used. these clothes. The special temperature scale and intensity level are combined and form the basis for continuing the modeling process. As a result, we offer CRAFT thermal underwear collections with their own unique characteristics, which together correspond to any weather and intensity. Refer to the chart to see which collection is best for which weather conditions.
The collection is summer functional underwear. Keeps your body fresh and comfortable when working out in the gym or on fresh air in summer and also ideal for everyday wear. Superior cooling effect and ergonomic fit for freedom of movement during warm to hot weather workouts.
The collection is probably the most versatile CRAFT thermal underwear on the market. It can be used for almost any physical activity in good and bad conditions. Cycling, running, cross-country skiing, football, horse riding, walking and rowing are just a few examples of activities for which CRAFT thermal underwear works great. The collection also includes Windstopper ® for windy conditions.
The collection is made of thin, light and elastic material, the channels of which are bonded into two high-tech polyester Hexa fibers, which enhance the transport of moisture and cool the body. On the outside, the hollow fiber provides insulation and also transports moisture to the next layer (insulating layer).
Collection - when it’s cold outside and you want to go for a walk, skiing, or go fishing, then wearing this CRAFT thermal underwear, you can be sure that it will not let you freeze. KEEP WARM - the warmest collection. WARM fabric is created using a three-dimensional weaving technique. Zones of different density and texture take into account temperature changes in different parts of the human body.
Underwear thermal underwear, layer concept, first layer
With the onset of morning frosts, all lovers of outdoor recreation need to take care of comfortable and warm clothes. Physical activity in the cold season with subsequent cooling can lead to very undesirable consequences, including pneumonia. Whether it’s a race for the zherlitsy or a forced march through loose snow, we once again expose ourselves to the danger of sweating and, as a result, getting a cold. To minimize such risks, experienced winter fishermen wear several layers membrane clothing. The first layer of thermal underwear removes moisture, the second accumulates it, and the third creates a barrier that prevents the penetration of cold air.
The most stringent requirements are imposed on body thermal underwear (the first thermal layer). It should be woven from twisted synthetic threads and have numerous cells designed to ensure the free drainage of sweat to the outside. Due to the fact that some fishermen do not attach importance to the layer-by-layer concept, dissatisfaction arises even with the best examples of thermal products, while most modern thermal underwear (including budget ones) copes with the task perfectly.
However, it is necessary to adhere to two mandatory rules: underwear must be 100% synthetic (cotton and wool will absorb perspiration) and must completely fit the body (like gymnasts).
To summarize:
- the first sublayer contains only synthetics
- Be sure to fit exactly to size ("second skin" effect)
- thin synthetic thermal clothing worn on the naked body
- Thermal socks are worn under thermal pants
- like regular linen, it requires regular washing, but not higher than 40 degrees. (rinsing is better)
- Under no circumstances should thermal underwear be ironed, otherwise it will lose its structure
- if you bought a thick or loose-fitting thermal jacket, then it can be used as a second layer
- base layer performs the function of removing moisture; accordingly, other layers are located behind it (absorbent, warming, windproof)
- in moderate frosts, three layers + a membrane suit are enough
- thermal underwear can be worn in summer
- TB should not rub or hinder movement
In the coming season, our assortment will consist entirely of thermal underwear from the Latvian company Norfin, as the most acceptable in terms of price-quality ratio and which won the most votes in our survey in the Group
Example of using a layered kit
First layer. Natelier kit. Worn on a naked body, combined with other layers. Designed to remove moisture. Usually choose one size smaller than the rest of the set
Second layer. A tighter suit. Put onon top of the first one. Designed for thermal insulation
Third layer. Suit with brushed fleece (micro-fleece). Worn under top layers or under overalls. Can be worn as outerwear in the off-season. The fleece creates an air layer to retain heat
Top layer. Breathable suit with maximum heat coefficient (-40° and more)
Even not the most welcoming winter weather is not a reason to give up long walks, active games and outdoor sports, contrary to popular belief. You just need to dress correctly. You can buy a jacket or down jacket yourself popular brand, which will definitely fit the child, but will not be able to warm him in cold weather. After all, it is worth remembering about clothing under the jacket - a warm, wind-resistant layer that also “breathes” and does not allow the child to sweat. What will please us with the high technologies that have found application in the field of children's clothing for cold weather?
Composition of thermal underwear
By first layer thermal underwear we mean “jacket with pants” sets, sweaters, turtlenecks, tights and socks. More precisely, the thermal underwear of the first layer is what is directly adjacent to the child’s body. It comes in several types, depending on the composition:
- 100% polyester or wool plus polyester;
- wool plus polyester plus cotton;
- 100% wool or cashmere plus silk.
Thermal underwear made of 100% polyester is designed mainly to remove moisture from the child's body. Such kits do not have any “warming” functions. Used for active sports such as skiing and skating. It is also suitable for active winter games, riding on a hill. It is good to wear for very active children; if your baby does not stand still for a minute, then thermal underwear brands such as Didrikson’s, Poivre Blanc, Huppa, Craft, Spyder will suit you perfectly. This type of underwear will prevent your child from sweating. Do not forget that it only works correctly when used with membrane kits winter clothes.
The most common type of thermal underwear is wool plus polyester.
In this case, wool performs the function of heating, and polyester wicks moisture away from the body. That is, if a child runs and sweats, then the moisture will not remain on the body, but will be transferred to the next layer. This way, the baby will not freeze when he gets tired and switches to less active games.
The amount of wool and polyester in the composition may vary. The more wool, the warmer the underwear. Also used in production different types wool The most common types are sheep wool, as in the Brubeck brand and some Norveg models, or Norveg, Janus merino wool. Merino sheep wool is considered hypoallergenic and less scratchy. A type of thermal underwear in this family is wool with the addition of polyester and cotton from the Melton brand, it is intended for very sensitive skin child. A small amount of cotton is added to the inner layer of such underwear so as not to irritate the baby’s skin, and it is not at all prickly.
Advantages of membrane thermal underwear and how to wear it correctly
Thermal underwear made of wool and polyester can be used with both membrane outerwear and down products. When used with down products, it is better to choose thermal underwear with a maximum wool content; it is warmer, but the moisture removal function will still not work. Thermal underwear made of 100% wool is very warm, but it cannot be used with membrane outerwear, since the function of the membrane is to remove moisture, but such underwear does not remove moisture. This type of underwear is mainly suitable for amateurs natural materials and fluff.
However, there are exceptions to any rule. There are two natural materials that are moisture-permeable: silk and cashmere. Cashmere is the undercoat of the mountain goat, i.e. also wool. This material is absolutely hypoallergenic, very soft and non-prickly. Brand Norway makes sweaters from cashmere and thermal sets from cashmere and silk. Such things are worn directly on the child’s body; they can be used for outdoor games and winter sports, worn under membrane winter clothing. They can also be worn under down clothes. The disadvantages of such underwear are high price And difficult care- Dry cleaning only.
Some manufacturers, such as Nano, Poivre Blanc and Deux par Deux, for certain models coat membrane fabrics with a special Teflon-type impregnation to enhance waterproofness and windproofness. Water quickly rolls off such fabrics without being absorbed. Separately, we need to talk about thermal socks. Modern children's shoes use a membrane, which allows the shoes not to get wet, and at the same time your child's feet do not sweat. Thermal socks for membrane shoes They must contain polyester to remove moisture from the feet, otherwise the child’s sweaty feet will freeze and the baby may get sick.
When wearing shoes made from natural materials, you can use thermal socks with a high wool content to maintain warmth. These socks are also used for rubber boots, where the moisture wicking function is not very necessary. Sock brands Norveg and Janus make children's socks for any shoe. And the brands Guahoo and Poivre Blanc also offer elongated models of children's thermal socks for winter sports.
The second layer is for cold weather
At temperatures below -10 degrees, it is recommended to wear a second layer of thermal underwear, which is placed directly on top of the first. This layer traditionally consists of a blouse and pants, the composition is 100% polyester or, as everyone calls it, fleece. Fleece sets are available from all manufacturers of membrane outerwear, Huppa, Reima, Didrickson’s, Lassie, Kerry, Poivre Blanc, Deux par Deux, Luhta, Icepeak. Here it is important to follow the 2-layer rule and not put anything else on the child to ensure correct work membrane clothing.
How to care?
For lovers of down clothing, you can use both fleece and blouses and pants made from natural materials for the second layer. Caring for children's thermal underwear is quite simple. Polyester linen can be washed in washing machine at a temperature not exceeding 40°C, using conventional washing detergents. Linen containing wool should be washed on a special “wool” program and use detergents for woolen fabrics, or the linen can be washed by hand.
A new collection of demi-season and winter clothing and shoes for children usually appears in online store catalogs in September, and sometimes even earlier - in July or August. To meet the cold fully prepared, take care of selecting and purchasing children's goods for autumn and winter now - before the rush sets in and prices rise for the season.
