True storyThe request:

Our Pro Athletes in

Ski-Mountaineering , Trail Running,

Cycling were after the lightest

possible baselayer with maximum

thermoregulation. A featherweight

�irst layer garment that

wouldprotect them against the cold,

that wicksmoisture, and stays dry.

true productWe developed the 3D THERMO ULTRA LIGHT WINTER SHIRTThanks to its seamless structure, its 3D knitting and the �inesse of its �ibres, this revolutionary 68g featherweight baselayer top offersmaximal thermoregulation and great protection against the elements.

The 3D THERMO ULTRA LIGHT SHIRT is the ideal base layer for protection against the cold, evacuating perspiration so that your body has no need to �ight to stay at the ideal internal temperature of 37°C. As a result, your body can focus its energy, not on staying at the right temperature, but on the physical performance.

Perfect heat regulation: keep warm and always dry when it’s cold outside!

Did you know?Thermoregulation is based on constant

balancing out gains and losses in heat. When it is too cold, the body has to fight to stay at the

optimum internal temperature of 37°C. And in the process, it uses up large amounts

of energy.

The 3D weave controls temperature variations and helps the body stay within normal temperature limits, that is, between 36 and 37.5°C. This corresponds to the optimal conditions for your organism to function correctly.

In fact, the 3D weave creates a thermal mattress consisting of ventilation channels and air cushions. Thanks to the resulting differences in thickness the material does not make direct contact with the skin. This means air can pass freely and helps regulate the temperature between the surrounding air and the skin. In this way the surrounding air is thermo-regulated before reaching the skin and sweat is easily carried towards the outside.

3D THERMO ULTRA LIGHT SHIRT


SPIN CONTROL means controlled posture alignment

As you know, improper back positioning has consequences on the hips and knees and can lead to joint issues which in turn generate muscle and tendon pain… all leading to a loss in performance.

The SPIN CONTROL light compression area is directly woven into the fabric, providing:• upright support during workout,• a realignment of the shoulders,• maintenance of the proper position even during long workout.

No matter the duration of workout, the SPIN CONTROL area helps keep perfect alignment of the spinal cord.

...as well as optimum oxygenation.

The SPIN CONTROL area also helps you open the ribcage better in order to increase breathing capacity and improve oxygenation during workout, but also after workout in order to provide faster recovery.

3D PATCHS SHOCK ABSORBER mean supported arms evening during full workout!

The 3D THERMO ULTRA LIGHT SHIRT (long and short sleeves) are equipped with 3D patches that provide localized compression support to the muscles of the arm (biceps) and forearm (supinator and pronator teres).

They are very comfortable and they adapt to the athlete’s morphology, providing optimum shock absorption and an anti-vibration effect.When your arms are supported, you’ll feel supported and stronger yourself.

Thanks to the extreme �ineness of the �ibres and the 3D weave, the shirt has exceptional lightness and muslin softness. You cannot feel it against your skin, and it is very pleasant to wear.

The seamless and body-hugging weave provide maximum comfort and total freedom of movement, without the risk of skin irritation or rubbing, even in the most sensitive areas.

68g: so light that you forget all about it!

They have tested it…

Really incredible !Highly breathable and close to the body,I could not even feel it. I love the strechablefabric that follows the body movement.This is very important!

Léo Viret - 5th Pierra Menta 2016

It is the lightest baselayer I have wornand it is amazingly comfortable.

Ludo Pommeret - 1st UTMB 2016

Very impressing! Not too hot when climbing and body temp is rising, and keeps you warm when descending. It is also very pleasant to wear just on its own. It is highly ventilated and stays dry !

François Faivre - French National Cross Country Team Coach and Elite Ultra-Trail Runner



I think this product is just brilliant, and very versatile in different conditions.I’ve used it on its own in cold conditions (5°C) for cycling and in very cold conditions (-10°C) for cross-country skiing. The excellent heat transfer and lightness meant I always stayed dry. Then I wore it as a light cycling base layer and on its own for running training in Corsica, and it was just perfect. You immediately forget you’re wearing it and it keeps you really dry, whether for hill descents by bike or intense running sessions when it’s very hot. What’s more, there’s no smell of sweat afterwards, which is really a positive advantage.

Nicolas CANTE – Amateur athlete

It’s like a second skin, but with more bene�its, it’s very, very light, you don’t feel it, it’s breathable, cool and dry, it protects you from cold or from the rays of the sun, there’s no humidity, it reacts perfectly to cold or heat, day or night, on the beach or in the mountains, "IT’S A SECOND SKIN".My experience of wearing it non-stop for 185 km/ 33 hours at the Compressport Cami de Cavalls in Minorca was great.No smells and no sweat.After washing, it came out like new, it’s fantastic!!!It has low weight, low volume. It’s "Delicate" - if you run through forests with branches, it could get damaged or torn.
