Who did we design it for?

For active men who ski, hike or run trail in winter and want a comfortable, adjustable thermal base layer. Suited to moderate to intense activity in cold conditions.

How should you wear it?

Wear next to the skin as a base layer, under a fleece or a jacket. Open the zip on the way up to release heat, close it during breaks. The close-fitting men's cut prevents bunching under other layers.

What makes the difference?

This men's thermal top combines active insulation and heat management thanks to its half-zip collar. One gesture is all it takes to regulate ventilation according to effort intensity — no need to undress. Effective and versatile.

The zip that changes everything

A thermal base layer without a zip means a forced choice between warm and breathable. With the half-zip collar, you choose in real time based on effort, gradient and temperature. Two seconds to adjust — no stopping, no removing gloves.

The close-fitting men's cut makes this top a natural extension of the skin. Stretch fabric that moves with every motion, impeccable support during dynamic phases, discreet under outer layers. No bunching, no creasing.

For all winter activities where conditions never stay stable, this WARM top is the base layer of choice for pragmatic athletes.

Usually, I wear size M for my clothes, but with CIMALP, size S fits me well. On this item, the collar is a bit tight.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

This is strongly inadvisable. Cotton retains moisture and dries very slowly, leaving you feeling cold during rest stops. Wear this technical garment directly against your skin.

This model is designed to act as a second skin. Its role is to wick away moisture and keep you dry. If it's cold, add a fleece on top (second layer). To protect yourself from the elements, wear a waterproof jacket as your third layer.

Wash at a maximum of 30°C. The golden rule for sportswear is to avoid fabric softener: it clogs the micro-pores of the fabric and blocks moisture wicking. Air drying is very quick — avoid the tumble dryer.

If you place your order before 1 pm (excluding weekends), it will be dispatched the same day. Allow 2 to 4 working days for home delivery or collection point delivery within mainland France.

Yes, absolutely. You have 30 days to return it and get a refund or an exchange. Return shipping is free. The item must be new, unworn, unwashed, and have its original tag.
