The Zerofit IceSkin Baselayer – Now Available In Black

With the warmer months just around the corner, the new Zerofit IceSkin Baselayer is now available in a fresh Black colourway in all sizes from XS-XXL.
 
Zerofit’s first ever motorcycling-specific baselayer has been developed in conjunction with brand ambassador Glenn Irwin - the record-breaking North West 200 rider - and has been engineered to take the heat out of summer journeys in temperatures up to 40° Celsius.

The unisex IceSkin combines two new innovations – Cool Stamp Tech® on the front of the baselayer and Rhombus Mesh Design on the back.‘

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 Kenichi Mori, Zerofit 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,’ Mr Mori concluded.

During Q-Max testing in Japan, the IceSkin recorded a value of 0.358W/cm2 – whereas a standard competitor product would typically score below 0.1 W/cm2.

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.
 
This innovative structure allows in air and rapidly absorbs and disperses moisture from inside the garment, preventing unpleasant stickiness and chills from sweat, and helping to keep you dry and comfortable in even the hottest of temperatures.
