Temperature regulation is the key performance indicator of any base layer and this is especially true for a winter version. But winter poses a specific host of challenges not found in other climaCodes namely in the form of added cold air and your additional layers. This is where our new Winter LS Skin Layer fills the gap tuned with a thicker knit “weight” taller collar and more stretch than our Spring/Fall version for boosted insulation and flexibility under your outer apparel. 91%PP 6%EA 3%CF

Light insulation seamless comfort and full-arm coverage in a long-sleeve base layer for colder conditions encountered in late fall and early spring. It’s crucial that our upper body gets an added boost against the elements during those cold fall and early spring conditions. As a solution we developed the Spring/Fall LS Skin Layer which has taken the torch from our iconic Skinfoil base layers with a completely revamped design and all-new blend of fibers. To start we’ve lowered the weight by about 8% and used a tubular knit technology that’s free of irritating side seams. 71%PP 22%PA 4%EA 3%CF
A hyperlight short-sleeve base layer body-mapped with two types of open mesh for maximum airflow and moisture transfer during indoor training and the hottest racing conditions. he SUPERLÉGER was developed primarily for two specific applications. The first addresses the demands of speed-focused riders who train and race indoors where the upper body layer needs be as light breathable and moisture wicking as possible. The second application is for the hottest outdoor racing conditions where the same considerations also apply but where a less revealing front mesh panel adds a touch of welcomed coverage while fully unzipped. WHEN/HOW TO USE IT: For indoor training the Skin Layer serves as your first and only top layer worn directly under the bib straps of your race shorts. For outdoor use pair it with the lightest race jersey in your wardrobe for a lightly compressive seamless first layer in the hottest environments. 89%PP 7%PA 4%EA
An exceptionally light base layer that manages moisture and controls odor beneath second-skin cold-weather layers or as a standalone top during indoor training. Thermal weatherproof equipment is no longer the bulky PVC rain capes and adapted ski jackets of decades past so—at the request of our WorldTour riders—we tailored a long-sleeve base layer to provide summer-worthy wicking and odor control that fits unobtrusively beneath race-tuned equipment like our Spring Fall Jersey or Jacket. In cool or cold weather transporting internal moisture is as important as keeping the external elements out especially during intense training or racing when a series of intervals hill repeats or attacks can lead to lingering moisture a clammy chill and frigid misery. Alternatively full-arm wicking is a must for indoor training when moving through the air isn’t constantly keeping your arms dry. WHEN/HOW TO USE IT Layer it under insulating weatherproof layers for fall winter and early spring; for indoor training layer it under your bib straps and omit the jersey altogether. 89%PP 7%PA 4%EA
A hyperlight light base layer designed to map across your body and keep you cool and dry in the hottest conditions whether training indoors or outdoors. Aerodynamic race jerseys don’t leave any room for error in base layer fit so we designed the new NS Skin Layer to fit unobtrusively beneath a second-skin jersey while still wicking and cooling better than bare skin alone. The Push Pull sleeves of our race jerseys are at their best with a sleeveless base layer so we opted to omit sleeves altogether in favor of designing the lightest most breathable and least bulky layer possible.
Unassuming hidden from view and working overtime to keep your core temperature regulated at all times. The humble summer first layer is often an afterthought but we take it seriously constantly refining its composition and silhouette to ensure it keeps you comfortable during the balmiest days of the year. The Summer NS Skin Layer serves as your first line of defense during the hottest days of the year managing moisture regulating temperature and keeping your body cool with its ultralight yarns and seamless design.
