3 LAYER SYSTEM

Practising a sport outdoors exposes us to variations in temperature, which are particularly demanding in winter. We have to be able to cope with the cold, rain, wind and snow, and sometimes all at the same time! The 3-layer system will be your best ally in protecting you from the elements. By layering 3 layers, you can be sure of staying warm and dry.:

- A first layer Breathable on the skin to wick away perspiration.
- A second layer insulating and comfortable to keep you warm. 
- A third layer to protect against the elements: waterproof and windproof.

The 3-layer technique is an ideal system that needs to be fully understood before it can be adapted to any situation.

The properties of each layer are essential, because conditions or your needs can change over the course of an outing (stopping or increasing effort, deterioration in the weather, altitude). So remember to adjust your layers according to these variations and to anticipate them..

Here are some examples of how you can adjust your 3-layer system according to the weather.
