A baselayer in summer? Have we been hitting the Top Deck shandy again? Fear not loyal readership, for Compressport are touting their new On/Off Multisport Range for both summer and winter use.

How? By using its 42,000 ‘breathing alveoli’ (tiny cavities), which open and close depending on how hard you’re breathing to regulate how much hot or cold air reaches your skin.

Elsewhere, there’s the brand’s Spin Control for improved posture alignment, compression zones for support and hydrophobic properties. Marketing bumf or techy marvel? We’ll be testing over the next few months.

Price: £75 from www.compressport.uk.com.
