‘It’s billed as being twice as warm as its nearest competitor, but crucially it’s adaptable warmth: it responds to your activity, being toasty when you’re paused and regulating the heat effectively when you’re moving strenuously.’
The verdict on the Heatrub Move from Country Walking deputy editor Nick Hallissey, who awarded the Heatrub Move a spot in the coveted Gear of the Year 2021 Hotlist.
If the temperature is low enough to warrant, the Heatrub ultimate is the warmest baselayer you can get.’
Ben Weeks, Senior Writer, Trail Magazine
‘The Ultimate baselayer felt cosy after a minute of putting it on. The mix of unique fabrics and fibres instantly heat up your body – you certainly warm up much faster compared to a traditional base layer that I find usually just feels like a long shirt until you warm up. So, if you feel the cold, love being warm on the bike or you’re like me and your adventure or normal jacket doesn’t have a thermal liner I highly recommend the Zerofit Ultimate as your new best winter friend.’
Stuart Woodbury, Editor of Australian Motorcyclist Magazine
‘Over the years I’ve worn and tested many different types of thermal vests, baselayer t-shirts and the like. Nothing is as good as Zerofit, though. It’s comfy to wear even next to the skin, it washes time and time again without fault and it’s fabulously warm.’
The verdict on the Zerofit range from Marc Sawyer, Tackle Editor at Angling Times Magazine.
‘The layers certainly kept us warm. The Move is more than adequate for most fishing situations. Ultimate baselayers (top and leggings) will be accompanying us on winter grayling days and early spring salmon trips when hours of standing in freezing water are required.’

‘For downhill skiers, outdoor photographers, fishermen or more static use, the Ultimate could be ideal.’
Mark Watson, Product Specialist, Wilderness Magazine New Zealand
‘From our experience, the Heatrub (Ultimate) is the warmest baselayer we’ve ever worn.'
Verdict on the Heatrub Ultimate, winner of a Today’s Golfer Editor’s Choice Award 2022.
‘Zerofit baselayers offer the perfect combination of warmth and comfort.’
Ryan Ballangee, Editor of Golf News Net.
‘You can and will wear it off the course, especially if you enjoy spending time outdoors in the colder months. It’s suitable for golf, fishing, cycling or just winter walks.’
The verdict on the Heatrub Ultimate from Joel Tadman, product editor at Golf Monthly Magazine, who awarded it a Five Star Rating and an Editor’s Choice Award 2022.
‘The inside layer of this top is made with a very soft fabric, so it feels really warm and cosy against your skin. In fact, it boasts a warmth retention rating that means it’s twice as warm as a standard baselayer, so this is your ultimate winter running top.’
The verdict on the Heatrub Move (Best on Test 2021) from Tina Chantry, Women’s Running Magazine Fitness Editor
‘This top is incredible, and it won’t let you down, even in variable weather. It's made with EVACOOL fabric which prevents you from overheating and dropping performance in warmer conditions. This top has lots of tiny holes to transport your sweat away. It’s also a brilliant baselayer to wear in the cooler months for hiking and wild camping.’
The verdict on the Cool Weave, winner of a Women’s Running Editor’s Choice Award 2021
‘A Simply wonderful baselayer, exceedingly warm, comfortable and easily comfortable all day.’
Matt Wildee, Ride Magazine.
‘We reckon it’s the warmest baselayer we have worn.’
The verdict on the Heatrub Ultimate baselayer from Paul Lance, Bike Rider Magazine New Zealand
‘Once the cold gets in, it genuinely affects your ability to do the job because you can’t think straight, and your brain stops functioning properly and the pain of wherever you are feeling the cold gets to you. As soon as you are cold, that’s it, you’re never going to get rid of that feeling until you’re back inside. It genuinely is such a big thing amongst everyone who works on BT Sport - the fear of underclubbing with clothing is very real. Genuinely, Zerofit baselayers were a bit of a game changer. I’d always worn compression gear but having that additional thickness in a baselayer makes a dramatic difference, it’s fantastic.’
Ben Kay, BT Sport and ITV Rugby Pundit, Rugby World Cup Winner 2003
‘The product is A1 and actually what sailing has been crying out for. With the racing we do, the Zerofit provides quite literally the Ultimate baselayer. It really is the ultimate. I get particularly cold, and always have done, and while the oil skins are very technical and waterproof, there’s no lining to them. So, you need to wear baselayers. The first rule of sailing, whether it be racing or cruising, is don’t let yourself get cold because once you get cold you can’t get heated up again. And that’s why Zerofit is perfect, it’s like having central heating. The Zerofit product is a game changer in my opinion. And when you spin it out through the crew which is now 12 in total, they all say the same, they love it. They have been sailing for years, they’ve tried a lot of products, but the secret with Zerofit is it’s a warm skin – it’s absolutely fantastic.’
John Minnis, Skipper of ‘Final Call’ sailing team, winners of the 2021 Scottish Championship, Causeway Cup and the One Design Irish National Championship
‘Before Zerofit, we hadn’t really come across a baselayer for this industry aside from normal running tops that you would have used as a thermal, but Zerofit is just on a different level, it’s so thick but also breathable. We use both the Ultimate and the Move throughout the year, and the products are very flexible for riding out. But they’re also great when we do a lot of sales in the autumn and winter. They’re brilliant for these, when it’s cold and you could be on the go outside from 7.30 in the morning until the sales end, and that could be as late as 8 or 9pm.’
Anna Ross, Bloodstock Agent
