Description
The ultimate multi-purpose base layer.
The Polypro top is a warm, thermal base layer top with a soft fleece surface at the inside. The longer length and thumb loops mean that it is easy to slip other layers over the top. A high rise double lined neck gives that extra bit of comfort.
Rooster Polypro™ is constructed from a combination of Polypropylene (94%) and Elastane (6%). We've brushed the inner fabric surface to give it a thick, fleece-like, high quality texture which feels incredibly warm and soft next to your skin. The resulting garments provides excellent thermal qualities making it the perfect base layer. Polypropylene is naturally hydrophobic, which means the fabric feels remarkably dry, even when wet. Wear it next to your skin underneath our neoprene Longjohns and Tops - in fact the possibilities are endless - our Polypro™ base layers would be great under your ski suit, drysuit, winter cycling, kayaking, walking and anytime you need a thermal base layer..
NOTE ON SIZING: This garment is designed to be tight-fitting. Due to the stretch of the fabric and the design of the top, it might look smaller than your body when not worn, but rest assured it will stretch to be nice and snug.
WASHING: We recommend hand washing in warm water. When you feel they need more freshening up that just rinsing with water, we recommend to use some Grangers Performance Wash or a small amount of non-bio detergent (make sure not to use any softener as this can damage the fabric)on a low heat/low spin setting in the washing machine (max 20 degrees Celcius/800 spin) every few wears, or after a hard week to freshen them up.

Reviews
- NWNicholas W.Verified ReviewerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 days agoGreat Versatile Layer
Been using one of these for years and they're great. Use mine all throughout the year, whether worn under a wetsuit top when sailing in cooler temperatures or as a single upper-body layer when it's not quite warm enough for a rash vest. Also started wearing it last year as a winter cycling base layer and its worked fantastically.
- SsamuelVerified ReviewerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 weeks agoGreat thermal top for the really bad days!
I have had mine now for 3-4 yeahs and still going strong! It's a thick thermal that really comes into its own when it's apocalyptic out there! I use mine for keelboat racing under jackets ect. I love that even once you have had a wave over your head and your soaked head to toe it begins to act as a quasi wetsuit material and still keeps you warm. Need another few sets

brilliant piece of kit
- MTMartin T.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars7 months agoMost used piece of sailing kit.
This is my second top. First one lasted more years than I can recall, purchased when they first came out. Finally it wore thin where my hiking short straps sit on my shoulders!
This is my go to base layer, is used summer & winter racing my Laser & feels great against my skin.
In the summer I've never found it to hot, sailing with just a Buoyancy Aid over the top. On cooler days i'll layer it with a Thermaflex Top or Aquafleece Pro Lite, or both.
After sailing it always gets chucked in the washing machine & washes up great.
First thing I noticed was that the new one is longer in the body, which is great. (Now keeps my bum warm).
