Your first layer for falls and movement

Fewer grazes, less friction, less skin stress in everyday life and in sports. On the bike to work, in the bike park, at the skate park, on the motorbike and in winter.

What your skin has to endure every single day

With every movement, something acts on your skin. When cycling to work, skating in the park, at the gym, on the trail or on the motorbike. You know the feeling:

  • The spot under the backpack strap burns
  • The thighs chafe in tight pants
  • After a fall on asphalt or gravel, the skin is torn open
  • Under protectors, sore, red spots appear

The real strain doesn’t just come from the fall. It comes from shear forces, friction and pressure points that act on your skin with every movement. This is exactly where SKINION X comes in.

What happens to your skin when you move

Shear forces

When you move, your clothing slides slightly back and forth on your skin. This creates a lateral pulling force called shear force. These shear forces can irritate the skin, cause sore spots, burning or pain. What SKINION X does about it: SKINION X distributes these forces before they reach your skin. The result is less pull, less friction, less skin stress.

Friction

Friction occurs when fabric, protectors or straps move across the skin as you move. The longer you’re out, the greater the strain becomes. Friction leads to chafing and overheating of the skin. What SKINION X does about it: The material is extremely smooth and moves with you. This significantly reduces friction and keeps your skin calmer.

Micro-injuries

When shear forces and friction act on the same spot for a long time, small, invisible skin damages occur. These are micro-injuries. You feel them as burning, pulling or sensitive, irritated areas. Over time, this can become a real problem. What SKINION X does about it: SKINION X reduces the stresses that trigger these small damages. Your skin stays more stable and relaxed, even on long tours or during intense training.

What our customers say

I wear the base layers first for hiking and now for skiing. The functionality is fantastic. It creates a great skin climate. It warms, it supports. I hardly notice it. The comfort is excellent. The size you see here is S/M. I’m a standard EU 38.
Eva Lisch
The functional base layers from SKINION X are a gamechanger and currently state of the art.
Gregor Fleischhauer
As I’ve already told the press, we’re currently using the base layers mainly in bobsleigh and are absolutely thrilled with the top performance, fit and freedom of movement. Jumping into the sled at 40 km/h is serious strain, but the base layer really prevents shear forces and friction injuries. Top product.
Johannes Lochner
I received the base layer really quickly, used it straight away on my first trail run and noticed: it really does what it promises. Top performance, great fit, hardly any friction – simply fantastic support for sports. And I’m already looking forward to trying it out in ski season.
Sobos Lotic
So, the fit is top and the function is simply first-rate. I’m 1.88 m tall, my BMI isn’t perfect, so I went for L/XL and I have to say it feels really comfortable on the skin.
Francesco Paglia
I’ve worn the base layers on mountain tours and for my first snowboarding session and I’m totally convinced. Especially when climbing with harness and backpack, there was noticeably less friction and fewer skin irritations. My conclusion: the first layer delivers on its promise, and the fit is simply top.
