P80 PRODUCT REVIEW I A s with so many other things in life, having a solid foundation is key to success, and the clothing that you wear when you ride your motorcycle is no different. Advancements in shell materials now enable the modern rider to stay perfectly dry no matter what kind of weather we're riding in, but wearing the proper base layer is critical to staying cool on hot days and warm on cold days. Forcefield, best known for their class-leading body armor, also offers different lines of base-layer clothing, such as their Tech 2 base-layer gear. These highly technical garments are a far cry from T-shirts and cotton underwear. The Tech 2 features Forcefield's trademarked thermoregulating material, BeCool, which is a four-channel fabric that provides three times better air flow than cotton. It's combined with Dryarn, a lightweight, breathable fiber used in performance sports clothing, creating an advanced base layer that is designed specifi- cally for motorcyclists, but can also be used for just about any kind of sport that you're into. Their fast-drying characteristics and anti- bacterial qualities make caring for them while traveling easy and convenient.
