You can trust Cycling Weekly.
Great wicking performance, a tight fitting nylon and polyester knit and a crew collar are all positives in themselves, but if you factor in the clever science in the fabric, the Second Skin base layer steps up a level.
Known as a bacteriostatic fabric, Meryl Skincare (of which this is made) maintains natural skin bacteria levels. Waffle aside, this means this synthetic base layer shouldn't pong for it's entire lifespan.
