Why wear a base layer?
The base layer, also known as the inner layer, helps:
. absorb perspiration and transfer it to the outside. Your skin stays dry and your body does not get cold
. retain body heat; even more so when the product is close-fitting.
. provide an additional barrier against bad weather
. keep your football shirt dry, even when you're running hard.
Playing with a technical base layer keeps you on the pitch for longer.
Composition
This under-jersey top is made from a weave of a polyester thread that helps wick away perspiration, and a polyamide thread for greater softness. These two materials, combined with elastane, ensure excellent comfort.
Breathability
A special mesh knit is used to ensure greater effectiveness in perspiration areas.
Regulate your body temperature
The combination of materials and technology provides excellent thermal regulation, allowing you to play in intense conditions without catching a chill.
Coordinated
The range of available colours makes it easy to match with T-shirts and shorts worn in matches.
A rating for comparing products environmental impact
The product's environmental impacts are calculated throughout its lifecycle and with different indicators. An "ABCDE" rating system has been created to help you quickly see which products offer the best environmental performance. Use it to compare two similar products (T-shirts, bottoms, backpacks).
Decathlon actively promotes this visible environmental rating policy.

What our design team has to say
We have listened to your needs and come up with a response aimed at intermediate footballers. In the heat of the action, your playing pace accelerates and the intensity varies immensely. Your kit needs to be ultra-breathable to regulate your body temperature during the more intense parts of the game. Your base layer also needs to be tight against your skin to keep you warm.
