ABOUT US

At Knavewear, we believe the right base layer makes all the difference. Whether you're grinding through a cyclocross race, tackling a gravel adventure, sprinting in a criterium, or heading out for a trail run, our base layers keep you dry, comfortable, and ready for whatever comes next.

Locally owned and operated in Central Iowa, we specialize in high-performance base layers designed for athletes of all kinds. Made from lightweight, moisture-wicking fabrics, our base layers keep you warm when it’s cold, cool when it’s hot, and comfortable all day—whether you're chasing finish lines or just grabbing a post-ride coffee or beer with friends.

Wherever your ride takes you, Knavewear has you covered.

The Fabric

Our All-Season Base Layer fabric is an engineering masterpiece, combining maximum breathability with an extremely lightweight form while still providing excellent privacy coverage for a mesh fabric. Its knit structure allows for higher volumes of fresh air, enabling advanced evaporative cooling to keep you comfortable even during the most strenuous activities.

What’s even more impressive is that this knit doesn’t show through artwork the way traditional mesh fabrics do, allowing for vivid colors and prints. The result is a venting fabric that offers better coverage and privacy while remaining ultra-lightweight.

Have a Knife Day.
