What kind of wool is used in this base layer?

What sizes are available?

Can this base layer be used for skiing or snowboarding?

Yes, this base layer is great for skiing or snowboarding as it keeps your kids warm and dry. Layer with an insulating mid-layer and a waterproof and breathable outer shell for the best results.

Troubleshooting

The base layer feels damp after activity.

Ensure the child is wearing appropriate outer layers to prevent moisture buildup from the outside. Also, consider the intensity of the activity and adjust layering accordingly. If the base layer is soaked, it's a sign that the outer layers are not adequately protecting against the elements.

The base layer set is itchy.

Ensure the correct size is being worn. Refer to the size charts and ensure correct fit. Check for any manufacturing defects or irregularities. If itchiness persists, discontinue use and consult a medical professional.
