Sports activities in winter time are impossible without properly selected clothing, which should be warm enough to protect the body from severe frosts and piercing winds, but at the same time comfortable enough not to hamper or limit movement. That's why many people choose thermal underwear! Which thermal underwear should I choose, synthetic or natural? Maybe a combined option? Let's look at the pros and cons below!
Why thermal underwear?
It is almost impossible to achieve this effect without using high-quality thermal underwear, which retains heat and removes moisture. Moreover, it is the second point that is key, because during physical activity profuse sweating is inevitably observed, which, when using ordinary clothes, leads to them getting wet and increasing the feeling of cold.
Thermal underwear solves exactly this problem by removing moisture from the body and at the same time remaining dry. Outwardly, it has no major differences with the traditional one, intended for everyday wear, and it is not visible under clothing.
Natural or synthetic thermal underwear?
Depending on the material, thermal underwear can be natural (wool, cotton) or synthetic (polyester, polypropylene). Very often you can find advice from various experts who categorically do not recommend purchasing underwear made from natural materials. This is justified by the fact that cotton and wool, although they have high thermal insulating qualities, are not able to solve the problem of removing moisture, which is absorbed into the fabric, takes a long time to dry and aggravates the effects of frost.
But is this statement true for absolutely all types of thermal underwear made from natural fabrics? Let's try to figure this out and find out what the features of clothing made from artificial and natural fabrics are, and for what cases each of these options is more suitable.
Synthetic thermal underwear for winter!
This category includes thermal underwear made from materials such as polyester and polypropylene, as well as mixed materials based on them. Spandex, nylon or elastane are most often used as admixtures. The industry produces a wide variety of synthetic fabrics, differing in the nuances of composition, type of weaving, strength and elasticity, level of thermal insulation, intensity of moisture removal: Eclipse, Coolmax, Polartec, PowerStretch and others.
Among the main advantages of synthetic thermal underwear it is worth highlighting:
- comfortable to wear, pleasant feeling on the skin;
- compactness and lightness;
- high wear resistance, preservation of original qualities and appearance for a long time;
- ease of washing and care in general.
But there are also some negative points:
- unpleasant odor, to eliminate which it is necessary to wash after one day of wearing;
- use in the production of artificial fibers based on petroleum products.
In winter conditions there can be various problems with thermal underwear!
When playing sports, a person inevitably begins to sweat, and a unique microclimate begins to form between his skin and underwear, characterized by a high level of humidity.
This moisture begins to condense on clothing, since moist and warm air masses are always directed to places where the temperature and humidity of the environment are lower.
If traditional clothes absorbs all this moisture, sticks to the body and then dries out for a painfully long time, but in the case of synthetic thermal underwear it happens differently: moisture passes along the surface of the artificial fibers, but is not absorbed into them.
Warm, moisture-saturated air, due to the difference in temperature and humidity levels, is pushed out, passing through microscopic cracks between the fibers.
It is also important to note that polyester with polypropylene practically does not absorb moisture (maximum - 0.4 percent of its own weight), ensuring its removal into the outer layer and sufficient uniform distribution on the surface, from where its evaporation already occurs naturally into the environment.
Manufacturers are continuously working to improve the process of removing sweat from the body, developing new designs, weaving options, using various options combinations of materials. Some non-standard and innovative solutions are constantly appearing, experiments are being carried out with the introduction of zones whose structure differs from the rest of the clothing.
It is also worth noting that professional models of thermal underwear are additionally treated with special chemical compounds, which improves the hydrophilic properties of the material and reduces the time for moisture removal to the outside. Typically, manufacturers declare that the substances used are completely safe for humans, but it is still not recommended to wear such underwear all the time.
Natural thermal underwear for winter!
Most negative reviews about thermal underwear are from natural materials applies to products in the manufacture of which cotton or ordinary wool is used. These clothes really aren't in the best possible way removes moisture, gets very wet and does not dry for a long time, which ultimately negates its heat-saving properties.
However, modern high-quality natural thermal underwear is made mainly from special type wool obtained from merino sheep. This is a special breed of fine-wool sheep, the main advantage of which is the highest quality of combed wool, consisting of thin soft fibers. For many people, it was a real revelation that excellent thermal underwear can be made from wool, but in in this case this is true.
Its main advantages include:
- light weight;
- not susceptible to moisture absorption;
- fairly rapid removal of moisture, maintaining thermal insulation qualities even when wet;
- high resistance to discoloration and pilling;
- Absolutely environmentally friendly: natural fibers are safe for both human health and the environment, as they are produced exclusively from renewable resources that are easily recycled or disposed of.
Disadvantages include:
- slower drying process compared to the synthetic version;
- there is a possibility of laundry shrinking after washing.
How natural thermal underwear works in winter!
The principle of operation of thermal underwear based on merino wool is fundamentally different from synthetic ones, since wool absorbs incomparably more moisture - up to 36 percent of its own weight.
However, this specific feature does not interfere with the desired process: moisture is gradually removed to the outer surface of the thermal underwear, from where it evaporates under the influence of environmental factors.
This happens primarily due to the core of the hairs, the cortex, through which the absorbed water is gradually brought to the surface due to the difference in humidity inside and outside.
Of course, in this case, many may wonder whether, due to the high level of moisture absorption by wool, there is an unpleasant feeling of wet clothes. This usually does not happen except in some cases:
- if the athlete sweats excessively, but then synthetic underwear simply will not have time to cope with its responsibilities;
- if, due to excessive environmental humidity, the laws of physics simply stop working, usually forcing internal moisture to come out.
It is interesting to note that, despite the high hydrophilicity of wool, the outer parts of the wool have water-repellent properties due to the presence of a layer of natural lanolin on them. It is thanks to this that even when wet, thermal underwear made of merino wool does not stick to the body and the athlete does not have the feeling that he is “drenched to the skin.”
At the same time, as noted above, with particularly intense sweating, neither synthetics nor wool can provide rapid moisture removal, but woolen underwear will be much more comfortable. A certain role in this is also played by such a phenomenon as the heat of sorption, which implies the release of a certain amount of heat by wool when wet, which is not observed when using artificial fibers.
Combined version of thermal underwear!
Thermal underwear made from a combination of synthetic and natural fibers, which combines the qualities of both the first and the second, is quite common. Such clothes wick away moisture well and keep you warm. Positive and negative aspects combined thermal underwear depend on a number of factors, primarily on the proportions in which the components are used. In general, such underwear is usually an excellent option for those who do not have any special requirements and want a universal option for various occasions.
In addition to the type of material used in the production of linen, in the selection process you should pay attention to indicators such as the density and weight of the fabric. Determining and choosing in a particular case is quite simple: the lower the temperature and the less active the loads, the heavier and denser the underwear should be. And vice versa.
Most manufacturers use special markings to make it easier for buyers to choose:
- Microweight – for intense loads in warm weather conditions, well suited, for example, for running in positive temperatures.
- Lightweight good choice for training during the onset of cold weather.
- Midweight is the golden mean. This type of underwear is suitable for active activities in frosty weather or a more relaxing pastime in relatively warm weather.
- Heavyweight is the choice of those who engage in mountaineering and enjoy hiking in the winter.
- Polar weight - such underwear will not allow you to freeze even in the most severe frosts.
Manufacturers can also indicate the temperature conditions under which this or that thermal underwear is designed:
- Cool – for wearing in cold weather;
- Light – focused on cool weather;
- Warm – best worn in warm weather;
- Extrawarm – indispensable in hot conditions.
The right size is the key to comfort
When choosing thermal underwear to use for winter training, it is critical to determine your size correctly. This will largely determine how effectively it will work, that is, to remove moisture and keep you warm in frosty weather. The correct size will be when the underwear fits tightly to the figure, following the contours of the body in detail and without forming any folds or wrinkles.
In order not to make a mistake with the choice, it is necessary to try it on. Having put on the thing you like, you should actively move, squat, wave your arms and legs. At the same time, the underwear should not sag anywhere, gather in folds, protrude or overexpose any part of the body; no discomfort should arise in it.
Don't skimp on thermal underwear!
Of course, it is not necessary to act on the basis of the principle “the more expensive the better” and buy the most expensive underwear, but the statement that cheap cannot be of high quality in this case works one hundred percent. This fact must be taken for granted and not try to deceive yourself.
The fact is that the production of high-quality thermal underwear is carried out exclusively from high-tech expensive materials, and the actual technology for sewing it is very expensive. All this ultimately affects the price of the finished kit. And there is no point in spending money on some cheap thermal underwear, since it will not be able to provide the expected effect.
Choice of thermal underwear manufacturer!
Today there are many sports brands on the market that specialize exclusively in the production of thermal underwear or produce them in addition to their main products. The following brands are most popular in our country:
- Craft is a Swedish company that has been producing thermal underwear for almost four decades. Offers a wide range of products in various price categories.
- Norveg is one of the most popular thermal underwear brands among domestic buyers. It produces seven series of underwear, mainly in the above-average price category.
- Red Fox is a Russian company that produces two types of clothing (thin and thick) in the middle price category.
- Guahoo is a Finnish brand, one of the first to present its products on the domestic market. It produces a wide variety of thermal underwear designed for different levels of physical activity and different temperature conditions. The cost is above average.
- Comazo is a German brand specializing in the production of budget thermal underwear. This product is more suitable for everyday wear than for active training.
When choosing thermal underwear, you should not focus primarily on its appearance or cost, but on quality and functionality. Only in this case will it ensure effective removal of moisture and prevent freezing during cold weather.
Thermal underwear is functional underwear, the function of which is to provide the human body with a comfortable thermal regime. Initially, this type of special underwear was developed for army special forces, but gradually thermal underwear began to be used not only in the army. Extreme athletes, whose intense physical activity caused an increase in body temperature and active sweating against the backdrop of unfavorable environmental conditions, were the first to appreciate all the benefits and advantages of thermal underwear. Subsequently, this underwear became an integral part of the equipment of most professional athletes and fans of active sports. Currently, thermal underwear is presented in a wide range in specialized stores for sports and tourism, and anyone who wants to feel comfortable during fitness or active leisure can afford to purchase it.
Many people mistakenly believe that the main functions of thermal underwear are to retain heat and warm the body. This statement is only partly true, since the main task of such underwear is to remove sweat from the body that is released during fitness training and other intense activities. And in addition to this function, thermal underwear provides comfort to the body, warming in cold weather or cooling in a hot environment.
Depending on the additional functions of thermal underwear, it is divided into 3 types:
- Summer, intended for fitness classes in the gym or on outdoors from April to October at ambient temperatures from +10 to +35 degrees.
- Universal. This underwear can be used during any outdoor physical activity in autumn, winter and spring, if the ambient temperature ranges from -10 to +10 degrees.
- Winter, designed for outdoor physical activity at temperatures from 0 to -30 degrees. It will be warm and comfortable not only for skiing or skating, but also for simply walking on a cold day or fishing on the river.
The special functionality of thermal underwear is achieved due to the material from which it is made. For sewing underwear for physical activity the following are used synthetic fabrics:
- polypropylene.
It does not get wet, but is able to efficiently remove moisture. Thermal underwear made of polypropylene dries in a few minutes directly on the body, so it is very convenient to carry out active fitness training in it;
- polyester.
In terms of its functional characteristics, this material is slightly inferior to polypropylene, but it is softer. Polyester underwear is pleasant to the body and durable;
- polyamide.
Seamless thermal underwear is made from this material, which is lightweight and smooth;
- elastane.
These synthetic fibers are added to the fabric to give the product strength. Underwear containing elastane has good stretch. It is convenient to conduct fitness classes aimed at stretching or including elements of stretching.
Natural fabrics can also be used in the production of thermal underwear, for example:
- wool.
Wool warms well if fitness training is carried out outside during the cold season, and its fibers gently massage the skin, increasing blood circulation;
- cotton.
Cotton threads in pure form are practically not used in the production of fabric for thermal underwear, since cotton quickly absorbs and retains moisture for a long time. Most often, cotton threads in the fabric are combined with synthetic ones. Pure cotton underwear can be used in cases where physical activity does not involve active actions, causing profuse sweating;
- silk.
This natural fabric just like cotton, it is not used in its pure form, but is combined with synthetic threads.
The texture of the fabric also matters in the functionality of thermal underwear. A special weave of threads makes it possible to obtain a fabric with from 1 to 3 layers. Additionally, using different techniques weaving, you can get different textured zones on underwear that provide maximum comfort in the places of the greatest or least sweating on the body during physical activity.
Summer thermal underwear is usually made from single-layer fabrics, which should allow air to pass through well, cool the body, remove sweat and dry quickly. Double-layer fabrics are used to sew universal underwear that can simultaneously wick away moisture and provide warmth. Typically, the top, warming layer resembles cells or honeycombs, through which the moisture released by the body during fitness training is evenly distributed over the entire surface of the underwear and dries quickly. Three-layer fabrics are usually used when sewing thermal underwear, the characteristics of which include an antibacterial effect. From a hygiene point of view, it is indispensable for tourists and climbers, who often do not have the opportunity to change their underwear after physical activity. The antibacterial properties of thermal underwear can be achieved due to the content of special granules in the third layer of fabric, which are washed off after 3-5 washes, or by weaving a thin silver thread into the material. Linen with silver thread retains its antibacterial properties throughout the entire period of use.
Rules for choosing thermal underwear for fitness classes
To ensure that thermal underwear does not cause discomfort during intense fitness classes and performs its functions efficiently, you need to choose it based on the following rules:
- The size of the underwear must match the body parameters. This underwear should fit tightly, but at the same time, not hamper movement;
- the characteristics of thermal underwear must match the ambient temperature and the intensity of physical activity;
- It is advisable to choose seamless thermal underwear or models in which the seams and labels are on the outside to protect the skin from chafing.
Thermal underwear for active physical activity: rules for choosing - all about the secrets of fitness on the site
- You will add strength, tone, and motor skills to your muscles
- Get rid of sweating

- Protect yourself from hypothermia, overheating, fatigue
- Give a special piquancy to a strong figure. Microporous fabric is almost weightless, but is equipped with fibers that support muscles and other male forms mighty.
Buying thermal underwear for sports means synthesizing a bright individuality and physical perfection inherent in strong personalities.
Perfection either exists or it doesn’t. The presence of a McDavid thermal mask, a thermal T-shirt with long johns, as well as anything unusual, immediately catches the eye:
- Your body looks slim and fit in thermal underwear
- Such energetic people are loved and imitated
- The beneficial effects of heat on the body are obvious
Warm up and active, you will be remembered by others, showing excellent physical condition!
How thermal underwear helps in the gym
Modern thermal underwear for sports is so comfortable that it is unlikely to be inferior to cotton pants and padded jackets. In the training room, thermal shirts, caps and thermal long johns are more functional than ever. The use of durable nanofabric in thermal underwear significantly increases its service life. It breathes, perspires, but literally repels the cold.
First of all, let's reveal a secret. The athlete is “dead” without warmed up muscles. The possibilities of an inflamed body are deep and bottomless. The body produces heat, clothing protects it. But the primary thing is underwear, its unique fabric, its unique cut.
