Why is my base layer soaked?

Finally a base layer technology that removes 85% of the moisture at source

whilst keeping your inner layers warm and dry!

In modern clothing systems, approximately 15% of sweat production is dealt with effectively, leaving the remaining 85% trapped inside between your base layers. Even the most advanced outer garments simply can't remove the amount of moisture the body produces - which can be as much as 1-3 litres per hour.


Getting cold when you stop? Wet base layers get cold very quickly. Sudore has taken an unconventional approach with it's system - we remove the moisture at source.


Sudore removes over 85% of the moisture produced by the upper torso area meaning your outer breathable jacket can deal with the 15% remaining. A solution that works effectively. Holding the moisture between the skin and the Sudore membrane also locks in the heat so you don't get cold when you stop. Interested? 

How do you keep your base layers warm and dry?

If you're working hard when you exercise you produce sweat and a lot of it. The moisture has to go somewhere. So wicking layers move it away from your body. Basically the moisture just moves from one layer to another which is a continuous cycle leaving your inner layers always damp. Your outer jacket although has the ability to remove moisture, can only remove 15-20% of the moisture produced. Sudore products deal with this problem at source.

This sounds rather grim but does it work?

Our base layer technology simply stops the moisture going into your nice warm dry base layers and doesn't therefore require the outer jacket to remove the moisture. Meaning you stay warm even when you stop. The moisture ( sweat ) goes from your body, and is trapped by the Sudore textile which also allows the air and heat to move through the garment as it is breathable. Moisture then uses gravity to move down the inside garment wall to be vented. We have developed various venting options which include leg pipes that run inside the trouser leg and vent at ground level, side porous evaporation vents and for those that really want it - the recycle vent! Yes, a purification system to turn the moisture back into drinking water. Not for everyone!

About Sudore Base Layer Technology

Taking the sweat out of exercise..


No more soggy inner layers. Stay warm and dry, whatever your sport. 

Sudore is a patent pending breathable garment technology that removes and vents moisture directly from the skin keeping your mid layers and inner jacket warm and dry. Unlike wicking garments that just move moisture from one wet layer to another, Sudore base garments actually remove and vent moisture away from the body whilst allowing the garment to remain breathable. Ideal for walkers, mountaineers, climbers, Ultra Runners, cyclists, Rescue services, Military and recreational users.

Did you know, the body creates between 1-3 litres of sweat during physical activity and even more under extreme conditions. So where does this moisture go and can traditional wicking layers and outer membranes remove that amount of moisture? Answer - No. Not even the most advanced membrane jacket will handle that much moisture so your inner layers remain soggy and when moisture evaporates it cools meaning your body temperature drops. Sudore technology removes over 85% of the bodies core moisture whilst maintaining a breathable heat controlled layer. No more soggy base layers or wet inner jackets.

Why is my inner jacket wet?

The leading causes of wetness inside your rain jacket are condensation and perspiration. Condensation occurs water vapor encounters a colder surface and changes from a gaseous form into a liquid one. When the air is humid it has a lot of water vapor in it. If the external surface of your rain jacket is cooler than its interior, the water vapor will condense on the inside your jacket and make your clothes wet.

Perspiration also produces water vapor and condenses by the same process. You can reduce the amount you perspire when wearing a rain jacket by taking off clothing layers worn underneath it or by generating less body heat, by being less active. For example, mountain climbers deliberately slow down their pace to reduce the amount they sweat so they don’t soak their insulation and reduce its effectiveness. Or you could use a Sudore base layer and remove 90% of the moisture and keep your inner layers and inner jacket warm and dry.
