This base layer is perfect for keeping cool, dry, and comfortable on hiking or camping trips in hot and humid conditions. The four-way stretch mesh underarm sections of the Apex Crew provide excellent breathability, allowing for free upper-body movement while keeping your pits cool. The natural anti-microbial properties of bamboo charcoal prevent foul odours, and the long sleeves and fabric provide UV protection against the sun. The Apex range is engineered for summer conditions but can double as an insulating baselayer for the colder months. This versatile baselayer is designed for hunting and serious adventuring, but it's so comfortable that you might find yourself wearing it to the gym or around the house all summer. Note that the Apex range is designed as a next-to-skin base layer with a slim fit. If you prefer a more regular fit, go up a size from what you usually wear. The Apex Crew Baselayer is also available as a tee, armour quarter-zip, and standard quarter-zip. - title: Features content: | 145gsm honeycomb fabric 125gsm mesh vent underarm Bamboo charcoal infused Moisture wicking Quick-drying Cooling properties Highly breathable Odour-resistant Antimicrobial properties Comfortable relaxed fit UV protection Ideal under garment - title: 'Size & Fit' content: | Rosie is 175cm (5'9) and wears a size M Taine is 182cm (5'11) and wears a size L Slim performance fit Size guide is available to view above size options - title: Bamboo Charcoal Fabric content: | Bamboo charcoal fabric is made by drying and burning bamboo plants in an oven at temperatures above 800°C. The charcoal is further processed into nanoparticles, which are embedded into polyester fibres. The result is a technical fabric that offers excellent moisture and temperature regulation, as well as the natural antibacterial and antimicrobial properties of bamboo. The unique composition of the fabric means it’s breathable and quick-drying in the summer and provides insulation in the winter. Pretty impressive, right? We think so. Cooling/Thermal Properties The tiny bamboo charcoal nanoparticles are highly porous, which allows air and moisture to easily pass through the fabric. This means when the body heats up and starts to sweat, the moisture is absorbed by the fabric and transported away from the skin. As the moisture evaporates, heat is released, cooling the air between your skin and the fabric. The breathable micro-gaps in the nanoparticles also allow hot air to escape, keeping you fresh for longer. In cooler weather, the moisture wicking properties of bamboo charcoal fabric actually help to keep you warmer by preventing sweat from cooling against the skin. # Size guide size_guide_url: https://images.ctfassets.net/vqzddtz845zg/1v5Zo8Mzvg11EkqOBeAqWu/18540ed8dcd9ca74a41b6a49689e1f14/Icon.svg # Schema json_ld: true --- # Apex Crew Base Layer > Staying comfortable across changing conditions starts with the right base layer.
