The winter months are fast approaching and it’s now time to consider the possibility of some thermal underwear. For most consumers thermal underwear went out with the Lois the XIV but for the knowledgeable the selection has never been better. Choosing the correct thermal underwear may seem rather daunting because unlike picking up regular underwear you cannot just pick them off the shelves & walk away. These thermals have got to fit appropriately but more than this they have got to suit your lifestyle. We often find here at Classic British Styles that many larger men struggle to find thermals in their size.

There are many types of thermal underwear available in our XXL and bigger range included briefs, long johns, trunks, long sleeved t-shirts, short sleeved t-shirts and singlet vests.

Like most thermal underwear ranges the XXL and bigger range offers great warmth and comfort as it is made from a combination of polyester and viscose materials. These materials are great for retaining body heat during the cold winter months.

Available in white or blue and sizes 4XL’s to 6XL’s this top can be easily worn underneath any work shirt or everyday clothing. If you are looking to keep your whole body warm this winter then the matching men’s long johns make a great combo.

It may be seen as old fashioned but like most fashion trends it's making a comeback, and here at Classic British Style we have all the latest trends in ladies thermal underwear for you.

Thermal underwear works by retaining more body heat then most cotton based clothing and works very hard to stop sweat and moisture building up. Thermal underwear keeps you feeling warm and dry and most are usually made from two-ply polypropylene fabric. Thermal underwear should be secure fitting and not loose at all, in order to fit cleanly underneath clothing and other attire, however, it should remain comfy.

Thermal underwear is usually white and comes in a variety of sizes which are small, medium, large and extra large. There are a few different types of ladies thermal underwear available to buy these include long vests, briefs, long johns, long sleeved vest tops and panties.
