O.3.6.1.1.2 The layering system is intended to keep the body warm by trapping warm air between the layers of clothing and around the fibres of the materials used in their construction and to keep the body dry by allowing excess heat and moisture (sweat) to escape to the outside. The outer part of the layering system should be windproof and keep out any wet weather.O.3.6.1.2 Base layerO.3.6.1.2.1 The layer of clothing worn next to the skin is known as the base layer. The objective of the base layer is to trap warm air close to the skin; to keep the surface of the skin dry and to maintain it at a consistent temperature.
