Klim Aggressor -1.0 Base Layer: Review and Thoughts About Armor Base Layers

[@GBeWinginIt]

Great work here. Love a comprehensive gear review!

[@BeGoneForGood]

Comprehensive and sweaty. ;-)

Interesting test! Would be interesting to see a comparison with a wool based one. From what I've heard wool should be just as good, but less smelly. Especially after a few rounds of rinsing / washing the synthetic fibers are rumoured to retain more of that stench than organic fibers.

[@BeGoneForGood]

I haven’t tested the wool but I have been using the Klim ones as “riding” shirts sweating like this for months and haven’t had any lingering stink. Now if you don’t wash relatively quickly (day or two) after the sweet it becomes outrageous in the hamper. That is the test I didn’t want to run…

You could take that battery pack with you if your using a camper that you pull behind your motorcycle or a trailer you are pulling with your motorcycle.

[@BeGoneForGood]

It is a BIG battery. That is for sure. If you ever needed to anchor the bike down in a tornado, it could also be really handy.

Would love to have some Klim but dang their prices are nuts. Some day I'll have some Klim.

[@BeGoneForGood]

Very true. The first one was a major gut punch but once I knew how well it worked, the second seemed a little easier. Hopefully, there is NEVER a reason for a third.

Training becomes more important as you get older .

[@BeGoneForGood]

For sure as I am learning with each passing year. ;-)

I have 3-4 pieces of each, Klim -1 long sleeve, short sleeve, underwear, and I love this stuff! Fantastic for hot weather escapades on the bike. It just works like Nike DriFit. Also great as a baselayer for cycling, hiking, and more. It's my go-to baselayer. Just Perfect

[@BeGoneForGood]

I agree. I didn't want to like the stuff as much as I do because it is so expensive. It really does make a significant difference though. Solidly worth the investment.

Take a bath in borax for about a week, you will almost completely stop sweating About 1/4th box per bath My pops told me back in the day before doctor's had skin grafts to offer to people eith road rash,they used to tell you to gp home and take baths in borax ,amd my pops said it was incredible how well his crazy friends would heal up ( he was a single father, thus didnt do stupid tricks,great dad btw ) Borax also makes our bones a lot harder wjen ingested,amd places like Israel that have the most boron in their soil get very little arthritis Borax is an amazing anti fungal,and its not us that can't tolerate heat , its the microbes that live in us and on us that can't tolerate the heat The microbes actually start replicating incredibly which overwhelms the bodies lymph nodes , and you start to feel bad Also your gut becomes more permeable, and bad bacteria from your gut start infiltrating the blood The British fiund that some indians could work in the midday heat , amd some couldn't, initially it was explained as genetoc, but once somebody actually investigated they found that the indians that could work in midday Indian sun used coconut oil pretty much exclusively in their cooking, while those that used Ghee typically could not Coconut oil killls bad bacteria,viruses,fungus and parasites/protozoa etc
