FAQs

What kind of activities are these tights suitable for?

These tights are ideal for a range of cold-weather activities including outdoor workouts, gym sessions, running, football, skiing, and as a layering piece for general active days out.

How do I wash my Sondico Core Baselayer Tights?

They are machine washable. We recommend using a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water and a mild detergent. Air drying is best, or tumble dry on a low heat setting.

What is the material composition of these tights?

The tights are made from 92% Polyester and 8% Lycra. The Grey Marl variant is 90% Polyester, 10% Lycra.

What does 'compression fit' mean and how does it benefit me?

A compression fit means the tights fit snugly to your body. This provides gentle muscle support, which can help reduce muscle vibration and fatigue, and also contributes to trapping body heat for added warmth.

Are these tights designed for a specific gender?

The product attributes indicate 'Male', but baselayers are often suitable for all genders, particularly in children's sizes where fit is primarily based on age and height. For optimal fit, refer to the size guide corresponding to age groups.

Why do the care instructions say 'Keep away from fire'?

The synthetic materials used in the tights (Polyester and Lycra) can be flammable. This warning is a standard safety precaution for such garments to prevent fire hazards.

Troubleshooting

Tights feel too tight or uncomfortable

Ensure the correct size was purchased. While designed for a compression fit, they should not restrict movement or cause pain. If discomfort persists, consider sizing up.

Skin irritation or chafing during wear

Check that the flat lock seams are properly positioned against the skin. Wash the tights before first use to remove any manufacturing residues. If irritation continues, ensure other layers aren't causing friction.

Tights don't seem to provide enough warmth

These tights provide a base layer of warmth. For extremely cold conditions, ensure you are layering appropriately with mid-layers and an outer shell. Make sure the tights are completely dry before wear, as dampness reduces insulation.

Waistband rolls down or slips during activity

Ensure the tights are pulled up fully and the elasticated waistband is sitting comfortably at the natural waist. If it frequently slips, double-check the sizing; a size smaller might be needed for a more secure fit, or a larger size if it's too tight around the hips.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Using your Sondico Core Baselayer Tights is straightforward:

  1. Select the Correct Size: Ensure you have the appropriate size (e.g., 7-8 Years) for a snug, compression fit.
  2. Wear as a Base Layer: These tights are designed to be worn directly against the skin, underneath other athletic apparel or casual clothing.
  3. Position Properly: Adjust the elasticated waistband to sit comfortably around the waist.

Compatibility

These baselayer tights are highly compatible with a wide range of activewear and outerwear:

  • Layering: Ideal for wearing under shorts, track pants, ski pants, or waterproof trousers.
  • Footwear: Can be worn with various athletic shoes and boots without causing bulk or discomfort.
  • Activities: Suitable for pairing with jerseys, jackets, and other gear for sports like football, rugby, running, skiing, and general outdoor activities.

Care Instructions

Proper care will extend the lifespan and maintain the performance of your tights:

  • Washing: The tights are machine washable. Use a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water to preserve fabric integrity.
  • Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach, as these can damage the Lycra fibres and fabric elasticity.
  • Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If using a machine dryer, select a low heat setting to prevent shrinking or damage to the elastic fibres.
  • Important Safety Note: Keep away from fire. The synthetic materials (Polyester and Lycra) can be flammable.
  • Ironing: Info needed: Specific ironing instructions.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
