For cleaning and conditioning base layers
Why technical base layer fabrics dry quickly and cool you down...
Synthetic base layers are designed to be worn next to skin and provide the wearer with comfort by maintaining body temperature and regulating moisture. The fabrics used are highly moisture-wicking (they spread it over a large area), dry quickly and are breathable. When caring for base layers, it is therefore essential to maintain these properties.
Base layers must be properly cared for to prevent odour build-up...
Synthetic base layers are fantastic for temperature regulation and body moisture control, but over time bacteria and body oils can accumulate in them, which can lead to odour. For synthetic base layers to work properly, care must be taken when washing them. Using ordinary household detergents or fabric conditioners can impair moisture-wicking properties by causing the fabric to retain moisture. This leads to reduced moisture-wicking ability and slow fabric drying. Additionally, odours are not adequately removed; instead they are masked by fragrances that quickly fail, leaving you with smelly base layers.
When base layers start to smell, wash them...
When you have worn a base layer several times and it starts to smell, wash it with Nikwax BaseWash, which deodorises, refreshes, softens and improves drying and cooling. Always use this product on worn synthetic base layers, socks, sports kit and travel clothing to keep them in perfect condition.
Ordinary household detergents and fabric conditioners reduce the performance of your base layers...
Using ordinary household detergents and fabric conditioners impairs the moisture-wicking properties of base layer fabrics. Ordinary household detergents do not prevent odour formation in the fabric during use. Ordinary fabric conditioners leave residues that are water-repellent (hydrophobic) and which reduce fabric performance by preventing it from spreading moisture and functioning at its best. Nikwax BaseWash outperforms ordinary household detergents and fabric conditioners in improving moisture release, speeding up drying and removing and preventing odour build-up.
To achieve the best results, make sure you use the right product...
Nikwax BaseWash has been specially developed for use in cleaning and conditioning synthetic base layers. If you have wool base layers, make sure you use Nikwax Wool Wash™ for best results.

- Nikwax BaseWash refreshes your synthetic base layers by deodorising and keeps them fresh by preventing odour formation during use.
