The Rooster PolyPro^™ Top....

Ever wanted to give your neoprene garments a heat boost?

This top is a combination of Spandex (10%) and Polypropylene (90%) offering a perfect layering material. Normal Lycra rash tops are cooling layers designed to cool the body, this top has the outward appearance of a Lycra top but has a brushed 'fleece like' inside to provide good thermal qualities. It also remains remarkably dry since the polypropylene material hates water. Wear it under neoprene wetsuits, our Hot Top, our Thermaflex top, our Dry Suit....... in fact the possibilities are endless - this top would be great under your ski suit, down the gym, cycling etc.

Thermals are an awesome way to add extra warmth to your body without the bulk. They act as an underlayer and fit easily under pants and tops. What makes them fantastic is that they are really breathable, which makes them great if you are doing a lot of activity. It draws moisture away from your skin leaving you dry, while maintaining a warm, regulated body temperature.

Features:

* Wickability: Draws moisture and perspication away from the skin, transferring it to the next layer which retains a warm layer of air next to the skin
* Quick Drying
* Hard Wearing: A high resistance to rubbing, stretching or tearing
* Lightweight: Polypropylene is only 70% of the weight of an equivalent wool garment

Best worn fitted and close to the skin.

Also available as leggings - see related products below.

Customer Reviews Average Customer Review: 5 Reviews Impressive product, 1.8.2010 Reviewer: F Ford (Plymouth, Devon) Just a quick note to say how pleased I am with the product (and the Rooster service!) This top really is one of my best purchases. Very impressed with the warmth, general comfort, the stretch...it's fantastic. I use it as a base layer for walking when it's chilly, and often find I don't need the middle layer in addition. I've worn it with a pair of leggings when I went jogging during this snowy patch, and was toasty warm. It's really an impressive product. I have also worn it dinghy sailing, and it's equally good for that purpose too. I love it so much fancy another one...I think I'll try the polypro leggings next! Size wise, I'm usually either an 8 or a 10. I've got the XS size, and I find it fits just right. Fits well against the skin, but still allows plenty of movement. Good stuff =)   love it!, 6.23.2009 Reviewer: gay dunne (wexford, A2 - Southern Ireland) the polypro helped keep me warm and toasty throughout frostbites sailing! on warmer days its excellent with just some waterproofs and an aquafleece, comfy with excellent manouvenerability! great shipping too! thanks rooster!   Brilliant value for money, 1.29.2009 Reviewer: Juliet Brown (Great Cambourne, Cambridgeshire) I initially just bought the top as I wanted something to keep me warm while I am rowing during the winter months. The top works so well that I have now combined it with the leggings. My top layers (now just a jersey top and bottoms) can get wet from rain and splashing that the blades cause but these PolyPro base layers remain completely dry and therefore keep me warm. Fantastic kit that I will happily recommend to anyone for any sort of outdoor winter training.
