Optimize your moisture management with our lightweight Base Layer, expertly crafted to be worn snug against the skin.
Why Choose Our Base Layer?
- Versatile Wear: This sleeveless base layer is ideal for all seasons. In summer, it actively wicks sweat away, providing a cooling effect. During winter, it serves as an insulating layer to maintain core warmth.
- AirMesh Fabric: Made of 100% polyester, the main fabric is AirMesh—a perforated, high-performance material—that aids in regulating body temperature and ensures superior moisture management.
- Ergonomic Design: Seams feature non-chafing flatlock stitching. The base layer is tailored to be form-fitting, designed longer in the back and slightly raised in the front, ensuring optimal fit while cycling.
- Odour & Moisture Control: Not only is it odour-resistant, but it also excels in wicking perspiration, ensuring a consistent temperature between your body and the base layer.
- Strategic Layering: For winter rides, avoid letting insulating or membrane garments touch your skin directly. Instead, our base layer should be your first layer, followed by mid-layers or jackets. This ensures effective moisture transfer and optimal thermal protection. On extremely hot days, ultra-light summer jerseys can be worn alone unless they become too damp, which could lead to uncomfortable cooling during long descents.
Fabric and Construction: Fabric: 100% polyester
Features: AirMesh® mesh, ergonomic fit, quick-drying, and superior moisture management.

I am 1,85m (6’0,9″) – 76kg – 93cm (37″) chest, took size M, the baselayer is really adjusted. It is not so strecht, so it is just a bit tricky to fit, but once done it feel just as a second skin, don’t feel it at all. I am in the max of size L, but size L would have been to large I think.
I rode with it in september in the hills near Lyon in France under a short sleeve jersey, it protected me in the descents in the shade and was an efficient sweat sucker in the ascents in the sun. A great piece of garnment, indeed!

Bought the Baselayer son the strength of the other reviews and I’m so glad I bought it. Excellent value for money, great packaging and fits really well. Much better than some of the Baselayer that cost twice as much. This is my go to Baselayer.

I’d only bought budget baselayers before, but having got various other Galibier products, and because I wanted a vest style baselayer ordered one of these earlier this year. Definitely worth it and amazing value compared to the ‘big’ names. It’s now my go to baselayer, and I’ll be ordering the t-shirt style soon as well soon. In warmer weather it is great at wicking the sweat away, while keeping your temperature controlled, while in cooler weather it just gives that extra bit of warmth. Great product

Got this base layer a couple of months ago for the Scottish summer and really like it. Feels very nice against the skin and fits well. I wear ladies S/M jerseys and got size S. Will be getting another one.

Always used a tee shirt under a jersey in the past but encouraged by the price, quality and reviews I bought this base layer. First impression is how well packaged it is even though its not expensive you wouldn’t think it when you open and unwrap it. The garment itself is excellent such amazing quality at this price point. Not sure how they do it but goes to show how much other brands are ripping us off. Galibier my new go to brand. I bought medium and Im 5-10″ and 73kgs. Fits snug but its meant to.

Ordered at lunchtime and it was through the door the next day when I got home. Very impressed. Sizing and fit is good. I would compare it to Rapha sizing if that helps anyone. I ordered a large.

Bought the XL (i’m a 44 chest) and fits well. Holds HRM tight and is very lightweight.
No chaffing on the 2 important areas when it gets sweaty. Washes well, very happy with it.
Great job on the total order being delivered in discreet packaging so she doesn’t know i’m buying more cycling gear..
