Description
The Portwest women's thermal base layer set (B128) is a two-piece set consisting of a thermal shirt and thermal trousers, specially designed for women working or moving in cold conditions. The material is made of 50% polyester and 50% cotton with a weight of 200 g/m², providing a good balance between insulation and comfort. The set functions as a base layer under workwear and helps maintain body temperature in low temperatures.
For what type of work or sector is the Portwest B128 thermal base layer set suitable?
The B128 is suitable for anyone working outdoors or in poorly heated spaces in cold temperatures, such as in construction, logistics, cleaning, or the agricultural sector.
The set works as a first layer directly against the skin and can be worn under work trousers, jackets, or overalls. Because it is a women's fit tailored to female body proportions, the base layer fits well and stays in place during movement. This makes the set practically applicable in sectors where women work actively outdoors or in cool environments.
When do you choose the Portwest B128 thermal base layer set instead of a thinner base layer model?
The B128 has a fabric weight of 200 g/m², making it more suitable for colder conditions than lightweight base layers, which are generally used in moderate temperatures or during high physical exertion.
The polyester-cotton blend combines the moisture-regulating properties of polyester with the soft feel of cotton. This makes this model a good choice when comfort over a long workday is a priority. For very intensive activities where a lot of sweat is produced, a fully synthetic base layer with faster moisture wicking may be an alternative.
The set can be washed at a maximum of 40 °C and ironed at a maximum of 150 °C. Do not tumble dry.
