Close-fitting sleeves and a roomier chest help the top sit comfortably beneath protective equipment without excessive bunching. Stretch fabric is combined with ventilated mesh panels, flatlock seams, and odour-control technology.
Key Features
Equipment-friendly fit
The sleeves fit closer around the arms, while the chest remains looser. This distribution supports comfort and helps reduce fabric bunching beneath the pads.
Stretch fabric
The polyester-spandex blend follows movement during skating, shooting, and stickhandling.
Odour control
Odor Defender technology powered by HeiQ Fresh™ helps control unwanted odours in the fabric during regular use.
Ventilated panels
Mesh sections promote airflow in high-heat areas and contribute to a more comfortable environment under equipment.
Flatlock seams
Chafe-reducing flatlock seams create smoother joins between panels and help limit uncomfortable friction against the skin.
Technology and Construction
Odor Defender with HeiQ Fresh™
The textile treatment focuses on controlling odours retained in the fibres. This helps the baselayer feel fresher during regular practices and games.
Polyester and Spandex
The fabric consists of 83% polyester and 17% spandex. The higher stretch-fibre content allows the material to follow dynamic player movement more naturally.
Ventilated Mesh and Flatlock Seams
Mesh sections support ventilation in areas exposed to increased heat. Flatlock construction also reduces raised joins that could cause uncomfortable friction under protective equipment.
