Firefly Men's -Extra Warm Base Layer
Firefly Men's -Extra Warm Base Layer
Don't want the hassle of caring for merino, but still want all the warmth? The Firefly ticks all the boxes. We scoured the world for many months looking for someone to make our design a reality, we finally found someone with our ethos for making great functional products. The Firefly utilizes 200gsm microfleece on the interior to wick away moisture, while the addition of a spandex/polyester smooth outer layer allows the Firefly to stretch and move as you do on any outdoor pursuit.
Most base layers have one fabric thoughout which wasn’t good enough for us, so we equpped the upper flanks and under the arms of the Firefly have more breathable eyelet fabric to let those hot areas breath better. We’ve also added a drop tail so when your bending over the Firefly stays in place. Finally, just in case people ask where you got this beauty we've added a Silversky logo to the arm.

Sizing
Your height and weight are the best guide to your size for cycling tops. The upper end of the range will be tighter and the lower of the range looser. Remember tops are mostly slim fit and are designed that way to take moisture away from the body, if you prefer a looser fit go up one size.
Please contact us if you're unsure about sizing in any way.
If you're unhappy with the size please return to us and we'll cover the cost to reship the correct size or style.
Example MEN:
