NikwaxBasewash 300ml, High Performance Deodorising Sports Fabric Cleaner & Conditioner, Cleans Away Odours, Makes Fabric Dry Faster, Enhance Cooling & Remove Sweat, Boosting Comfort & Performance

Excellent product for base layers, refreshes them and makes them feel almost like new again after a wash.

Leaves a nice refreshing smell and appears to prolong the freshness feel of the garments. No noticeable loss thermodynamics/ efficiency of fabric after multiple uses. Ideal fro washing other tech fabrics ie Coolmax, under-armour tee-shirts, underwear etc.. In fact anything that is not waterproof or wind resistant material (use tech wash). I use this for my first and second layer technical clothing only including underwear. Its just the cost that makes using this liquid expensive per wash cycle, especially If you only have a few items. I use mine direct in the drum using a spare plastic ball/lotion container from other well known liquid soap suppliers. I find it is best to use directly inside the drum. Ideal just a little expensive so keep for your technical material/more expensive clothing. Although to u.se a semi-full load I have used with standard clothing with similar results. Not essential for technical clothing care but you do notice the difference in feel between using this and bog-standard washing solutions. a long lasting freshness is a great feeling when using the garment especially after 3+ days with no shower. i.e. wild camping..

Great product, used this for years on my sports clothing, hiking baselayers and socks. What I really like is on multi day walks I can wear the same garment the following day and any odour has dispersed.

It works but I am not sure it works better than non bio detergents but I have so much invested in high tech clothing I will stick with it. It is certainly not cheap.

Brilliant to wash sport clothes prompt delivery too

Use it to clean my hiking gear (tops, knicks, shorts and socks). Usually every 10 days. Leaves a fresh clean smell and by using 50ml per wash, lasts me 6 months, so very cost efficient.

As about 90% of what I wear is some form of polyester, this stuff comes in very useful. For all the people who don't know what this does, it clears all the little spaces between the threads that ordinary washing powders & liquids block up, so when you sweat the droplets of moisture passes through the polyester out into the air and makes the fabric breathable. It says that you should put 50ml in and wash two garments at a time, but I just fill the drawer in the washing machine up to the top and put about 15 t-shirts in. It's more expensive than ordinary washing powder/liquid, but who wants to wear sweaty non-breathable polyester t-shirts.

Brilliant for keeping all my sports and technical kit clean
