Compton Round Neck L/S Base Layer
I was in need of a new base
layer. Having looked through many a catalogue and wandered round many a
shop, i was shocked at how much base layers seem to cost these days. But
then I found the dhb range...
dhb
might not be a company you have heard of but
they continue to make no-nonsense, quality, value kit. The new dhb Compton
baselayer is no different.
For 2008 they have a new super comfort fit
version that features the award winning Nanobon fabric (carbonised bamboo
fibres... ooo!?!). I have to say hyping material never does much for me,
but I must say its a comfortable garment. The material is sweat wicking,
and its very good at it too, and so far the garment is working well from
regular use and washing. The Compton base layer is available in a round
neck and zip neck option, personally I prefer round neck to wear under a
jersey in the winter - summer time I normally don't wear a base layer.
A super comfortable and good looking garment for a fantastic price. If you
fancy a slightly more upmarket base layer also check out dhb's Earnley
Ciba fabric seamless base layers (around £30 in L/S and S/S options)
