Fishnet Long Underwear

Our Price: $33.00

The most important layer of clothing you wear in a cold climate is your first layer, your underwear. Fishnet long underwear made from nylon is the absolute best first layer. Wiggy fishnets are made from nylon yarn, knitted in a pattern that is a 3/8" mesh hole, 1/16" thick. The human body emits moisture through its pores continuously. If this moisture is stifled from getting away from the skin surface, the body loses heat to the moisture very quickly. When covering the body with fishnets, the moist vapor leaving the body is not inhibited in its movement from the body by the fabric. Cotton, wool, and silk underwear absorb the moisture, which in turn doubles the number of elements that will absorb your heat. If your wear a synthetic underwear that is traditionally knitted, regardless of the yarn, polyester or polypropylene, it stifles movement of the moisture. Hence, the moisture stays on the skin surface, which absorbs your heat.
Fishnets have additional qualities. Since the mesh has a very limited surface area, conductive heat loss is minimal. When you wear underwear that touches most of your body, it conducts heat from your skin surface. The feeling you have when wearing fishnets is that of a layer of warm air around your body. If the layers over the loose fitting fishnets are also loose fitting, as they should be, movements will cause a bellows effect. If you have an open neckline, the moisture-laden air will move freely out of the neck opening and not be forced through your clothing. Vapor will take the course of least resistance as liquid does.
