For cricketers, tennis players, netballers and footballers, the new unisex V-Neck Zerofit IceSkin Baselayer (£59.95) is proving to be a secret weapon against the heat this summer.
Independently tested and proven to be more than THREE AND A HALF TIMES COOLER than competitor products, the garment keeps athletes chilled in temperatures up to 40° Celsius.
Stay cool and keep fatigue at bay this summer with the V-Neck IceSkin Baselayer – here’s how it works!
Cool Stamp Tech®
‘Cool Stamp Tech is a printing processing method with a new cooling effect that has been developed by Zerofit’s parent company. It is mainly made up of two cooling processing methods (menthol-based and xylitol-based),’ said Mr Kenichi Mori, Lead Designer.
‘There are nine types of ‘temperature sensors’ called TRPs on human skin, and people sense temperature when each sensor is activated. The menthol-based processing agent in Cool Stamp Tech contains an ingredient that activates temperature sensors and sends a signal to the brain that it feels cold, so that the temperature feels lower than it actually is,’ he added.
Special Mesh
The new Rhombus Mesh Design on the back of the IceSkin baselayer has been innovated to target the area where perspiration builds up the most.
The unique structure lets in air and quickly absorbs and disperses moisture from inside the garment, preventing unpleasant stickiness and chills from sweat, and helping to keep you dry and comfortable.
Backed By Science
Zerofit’s Heatrub Ultimate and Move baselayers are independently analysed for Heat Retention, and we wanted to utilise a similar test to show the effectiveness of the IceSkin when it comes to keeping you cool.
During Q-Max testing, the IceSkin recorded a value of 0.358W/cm2 – whereas a standard competitor product would typically score below 0.1 W/cm2, more than THREE AND A HALF TIMES cooler than a competitor baselayer.
Protection From The Sun
The V-Neck IceSkin comes in a long and short sleeve, but the former version also features sleeves that have a maximum UPF50+ rating, so you'll be protected against the sun's harmful rays.
The IceSkin also uses Polygiene StayFresh™ silver ion antibacterial treatment which suppresses 99% of odour-causing bacteria and additionally helps to eliminate sweat odour.
