FAQ

Why choose White over Black for a base layer?

White is the right choice under light-colored or white jerseys where a black base layer shows through visibly. In hot summer sun, white also absorbs less radiant heat than dark colors, which can keep you marginally cooler.

Does a short-sleeve base layer actually help in hot conditions?

Yes. A base layer wicks sweat away from the skin faster than skin-to-jersey contact alone, which improves evaporative cooling. The seamless construction also ensures the layer stays off your skin's surface rather than clinging flat.

Does the White stay opaque when wet with sweat?

The white colorway may become slightly more transparent when saturated with sweat. This is normal for any white technical fabric. The jersey worn over it minimizes any visibility concern.

Best For

Road and gravel cyclists who ride in white or light-colored jerseys and want a seamless short-sleeve base layer that stays invisible and manages sweat efficiently.
