Manufacturer Fourth Element
The J2 baselayer was developed for the US Deep Caving Team’s 2013 expedition to
explore Cheve Cave System in Mexico. With excellent anti-microbial performance
thanks to the use of silver ion technology, and outstanding wicking from a unique
fabric, it is designed for extended use under a drysuit.
Keeping the skin dry can be critical to success, whether it is staying warm,
or preventing infections. The J2 base layer was designed to wick perspiration
away from the skin and maintain a dry zone next to the skin.
Air is a better insulator than water and consequently, the
baselayer ensures better thermal protection.
The J2 baselayer system takes this performance further with tried and tested anti-microbial silver ions embedded within the fibres of the fabric. This enables long, repetitive wear without the risk of skin infections developing – something which was critical on the J2 expedition.
A simple, close fitting design with flat seams for next to skin comfort offers the perfect solution under any drysuit underwear.
With colour-coordinated comfort zip, the top is not only easy to don, it has good aesthetics and is extremely comfortable thanks to excellent all-way stretch fabric and flat seams.
