Underwear is an aspect we can't overlook, as it comes into direct contact with the skin, and choosing it correctly is the solution to avoiding infections and other conditions. Therefore, technical underwear may be just what you're looking for. But what is it? What features does it have, and what benefits does it offer? We'll tell you everything.
What is technical underwear?
Is technical underwear the same as thermal underwear? The truth is, no. And, although many people confuse the two, it's important to understand that they are two different concepts. Technical underwear encompasses garments worn to keep our skin dry when we sweat . However, if we want to wear it in winter, it must also have thermal properties to maintain our body temperature. These are two distinct qualities of a garment that can be combined. So what are the characteristics of technical underwear?
- Breathable. This is the main characteristic of this type of clothing. Regardless of the weather outside and the temperature our body has reached, they are designed to keep our skin dry.
- Comfortable . This garment is very comfortable, both due to its design and the way it feels next to your skin (it will always be the first layer if there is more than one). To achieve this, it has flat seams, wide elastic bands, and is very soft to the touch.
- Ergonomic. Technical clothing fits the body and stays close to the skin, but without constricting, allowing complete freedom of movement.
What does the Abanderado Technical Collection like?
We want to offer you the best so you can feel comfortable and confident in your underwear no matter what occasion you wear it. With this goal in mind, we've created different lines within the Técnico Abanderado collection: designed with you in mind and tailored to your skin and activity.
Breathable
These garments are made with a functional hydroelectric polymer thermoregulatory fabric that activates when body temperature rises and automatically deactivates when it drops. This is an innovative technology, and our brand has been a pioneer in implementing it in underwear. Its advantages? It will keep you warm in winter and cool in summer . It's also breathable, and some items in this line, like the Active T-shirt, even have a mesh fabric that wicks sweat away from the skin. In short, Regul'Activ is a line based on breathable and thermoregulatory garments , two of the main characteristics of any men's technical clothing item.
