What Are the Benefits of Thermal Shirts When Exercising?

While most of our men’s sportswear is made to be worn as an outer layer, our men’s thermal shirts are typically worn underneath regular sportswear, as thermal clothing is designed to retain your body heat. This makes our men’s thermal shirts suitable for protecting your upper body from the cold while active, but certainly also during moments of rest, when your body is extra vulnerable. Thermal shirts are an essential part of ski clothing, but they are also very useful after coming back from skiing or snowboarding, especially if you exercise outdoors early in the morning or in winter.

Since you wear this type of shirt underneath your regular sports shirt, it is important that your thermal shirt fits snugly around your upper body. To ensure this, a thermal shirt is always fitted. This allows you to wear a shirt over it without the risk of everything feeling so tight that you can no longer move. This is further enhanced by the fact that our thermal shirts are partly made from elastic fibres. Around 10 percent of the fabric consists of spandex, making them slightly stretchy and allowing them to easily join the moves you make while exercising.

It is also essential that a thermal shirt feels pleasant on your skin. That is why we use polyester for these men’s shirts. Polyester feels soft and effectively releases any excess body heat. A soft shirt that fits snugly around your body is also less likely to chafe, making our thermal shirts suitable even for intense physical exercise. The polyester and spandex we use stand out due to their excellent quality. That is good news for you, because that means you can keep wearing our thermal shirts for years, while continuing to rely on the protection you need.

Which Sports Are Thermal Shirts Made For?

Thermal shirts are a must-have for winter sports. When you go skiing or snowboarding, you wear a base layer of thermal clothing, with your men’s ski trousers and ski jacket over it. On a particularly chilly day, you can also wear an additional layer of clothing between your thermal base layer and your outer layer of ski clothing, such as a jumper or a zip-up hoodie. If you want to be sure that this layer fits well, we recommend having a look at our men’s ski knitwear collection, which has been specially designed to wear underneath your ski clothing.

Our thermal shirts are also excellently suited to wear as men’s running clothing. On a cold spring morning or late in the evening, a thermal shirt underneath your running shirt ensures protection from the cold. Do you enjoy playing golf? Then you do not have to stop if the temperature is not quite on your side. You can comfortably wear our thermal shirts underneath our men’s golf clothing. When you walk or ride from one hole to the next, you will not catch a cold. In addition, a well-fitting thermal shirt will not get in the way of your swing.

Do you want to wear a thermal shirt underneath a men’s polo shirt? We also offer various short-sleeved thermal shirts. These shirts fit perfectly underneath a polo shirt or men’s T-shirt, so you do not have to worry about your extra layer of clothing getting in the way of your golf swing or when you need to stretch to hit a ball with your racket. The fit is designed so that the thermal clothing does not interfere with your regular sportswear, and vice versa.

Which Sportswear Offers Further Protection Against the Weather?

A thermal shirt underneath your sports shirt keeps your upper body warm, but it does not protect against rain, and it is not windproof either. If you expect to have to cycle to your sports club against a headwind, or you often go running when temperatures are still quite low, we recommend wearing a men’s sports jacket. Our sports jackets are made from windproof and water-repellent fabrics, so they are guaranteed to protect your upper body from rain and wind. If your sports jacket has a hood, your head is also well protected, as they are water-repellent and completely windproof too.

However many layers of Airforce Sport clothing you wear, you should be able to wear them all comfortably on top of one another. We have taken this into account when designing our men’s sportswear. The snug fit of our thermal shirts does not get in the way of your T-shirt or polo shirt, and you can wear your sports jacket over either without any problems. The designs of all garments in our collection also match each other. You can mix and match your sportswear to make your sport outfit suit your own preferences.
