Baselayers
« on: March 08, 2016, 04:01:30 PM »
What's the deal? Looking for something for under my shirt as I hate the itchiness/irritation feeling, but never encountered a comfy baselayer either. Also not chucking £50-60 at Skins

Theres the issue ;)

Skins are the best i've ever worn. A decent affordable option is sub sports, i bought mine on ebay a couple of years ago now, so things may have changed.

Seconded on sub sports, think I originally heard of them via a Jake post on a similar thread (cheers mate) and they're decent stuff for cheap prices. Cheapest place to get them is Amazon I've found, seem to be pretty routinely half price on there for the shorts anyway.

Is the trick to stick to the size you wear normally, or size up for a better fit?

Skins is best I have ever worn.

The black one which I wear is 4 years old and it's still strong. SportsDirect has some on good price;

Last year I bought brand new UnderArmour which after a season (12 games) got little loose and colour got stained.

Canterbury are also good.

Well I mostly use skins as they are the best imo.
I have a few ihsan baselayers they are good and cheap I can't remember exactly but I think I paid him £3 a piece (took 3) they only issue is that the ends of the sleeves got loose.

Well depends on your preference I think, some people like the "second skin" feel while others like it a little loose. I personally stick to the size guides

Good option for the 2016 season would be the new Kookaburra baselayers which are available for less than £25.
