- Compression: Fits tight to the body and supports muscles.
- Fitted: Gently hugs the body with no space between your skin and the fabric.
- Semi-Fitted: Anatomically styled, body contoured apparel that fits close to the body but is not body hugging or snug.
- Relaxed: Apparel that drapes loosely from the body and is styled to provide a fuller fit.
- Hot: Technical moisture management apparel that is designed to move perspiration away from the skin to keep the athlete cool and dry.
- Moderate: Long-sleeve tops or long pants that provide additional coverage from the elements while offering a balance of moisture control, breathability, and thermal regulation.
- Cold: Apparel that provides a high level of thermal protection to help maintain core body temperature in extremely cold and wet conditions.
- Thin: Thin apparel is lightweight, low bulk, ultra breathable, and fast drying. Thin apparel is generally designed to aid in moisture control by moving perspiration away from the skin to the surface of the garment.
- Medium: Medium-thick apparel usually has a greater stretch than thin apparel, but maintains many of the other qualities of thin apparel. For example, most medium-thick apparel is designed to pull moisture away from the skin to keep you cool and dry.
- Thick: Thick apparel is designed to help maintain your core body temperature. It is generally less breathable than thinner apparel, but makes up for it in its added warmth.
