Saying things like 'Next Generation' is pretty lame. However, when something like the Craft Concept Piece Base Layer arrives, you sort of struggle for any other words. Blending some of Craft's most advanced fabrics, Zero Extreme and Mesh Superlight, the Concept piece aims to map your body, so that during exercise, the right fabric is in the right place.

Worn under your cycling jacket as the first layer, the Craft Active Extreme Round Neck Base Layer is designed to keep you dry and fresh throughout any ride in fair to cool conditions, and with its rounded neck, is an ideal choice for cyclists that don't wish to wear the higher necked crew style of the standard Active Extreme Base Layer. The Active Extreme is made of a thin, lightweight and extremely elastic fabric that is channel stitched with two high-tech polyester fibres. A hexa-channeled fiber against the skin enhances moisture transport, which cools the body down. On the outside, ...

Blending the Swedish brand's Mesh Superlight and Zero Extreme fabric into one very cleverly body-mapped base layer, the long sleeve Craft Active Extreme Concept Piece is Craft's most adaptable first layer yet for cool to cold rides. In simple terms, the Concept Piece puts the right fabric where its needed, and removes fabric from where it isn't. Take your rear shoulder area for example - it gets mighty hot even in cold rides, so here, Craft applied their Superlight fabric to provide coverage without heat buildup. Switch that idea around and Active Extreme fabric is placed in key areas ...

Designed for deep cold cycling, the Craft Warm Wool Round Neck Baselayer offers a cunning blend of merino wool on the interior paired with a synthetic outer to create an environment perfectly suited to the stop start nature of cycling.Odour resistant and beautifully soft against the skin, the Warm Wool's merino inner keeps you warm even when wet, whilst the outer works to move moisture to the exterior. The other advantage of a synthetic exterior is that it becomes far more resistant to scrapes and scratches that might otherwise pull a pure merino baselayer.Wool blended with polyamide ...
