Functional underwear as the most important layer in the clothing system
Functional underwear is the most important layer in a clothing system when working in changing temperatures, cold conditions, or under physical strain. It sits directly against the skin, regulates moisture, reduces sweat, and supports a balanced body climate. High-quality functional underwear ensures that the body remains dry and employees stay efficient even on long days. Whether in trade, industry, logistics, or during athletic activities – functional underwear forms the basis for comfortable work and protects against both cooling down and overheating.
Materials and comfort
Modern functional underwear is made of specially developed materials such as COOLMAX® or merino wool, which quickly wick moisture away from the skin. This effectively regulates sweat and supports a comfortable wearing experience. At the same time, the materials ensure good ventilation and help to keep body temperature stable even in low outside temperatures. Functional underwear is elastic, tailored close to the body, and does not restrict freedom of movement – ideal for intensive outdoor work as well as for sports activities.
