Engage Baselayer
The Engage Baselayer is made from a pliable 92% polyester, 8% elastane fabric and is coated with a special hi-tech quick-dry chemical finish. Its moisture wicking properties keep you dry and comfortable both on and off the pitch, whether worn alone or as part of a layering system. High quality stitching, with robust hemming at both cuffs and waist, means that our football base layers will last longer and stretch with you – rather than against you.

Goalkeeper's Shirt
Our Goalkeeper’s shirt is made from the same modern high performance polyester as top quality football tops. The shirt features extra-strong padding at elbows and forearms, offering that all important extra protection when diving for the ball. Our padding is made from resilient foam, covered by fabric panels and then stitched in place with decorative stitching throughout.

Engage Tricolor Kit Socks
Suitable for all styles of kit, our acrylic Engage socks are designed for comfort, breathability and performance. They feature an elasticated fold-over top so they can be worn either above or below the knee, as required. This panel also helps to keep shin-pads in place, while another at the ankle helps the sock to hold its shape. A third panel across the top of the foot helps protect the small bones in this area, by helping the foot to keep its shape.
Our socks are naturally wicking, but we’ve also included cool mesh panels on top of the sock (to line up with the ventilation panels in sports boots). The socks also feature a flat-seamed toe, to avoid a bulky seam …

Wicking fabric
Wicking fabrics are modern technical fabrics which draw moisture away from the body. They are made of high-tech polyester, which, unlike cotton, absorbs very little water. Cotton will absorb 7% of its weight in water, polyester only 0.4%. Cotton will therefore hang onto your sweat, making your garment heavy and unpleasantly clammy. Wicking polyester has a special cross-section and a large surface area, which picks up moisture and carries it away from your body, spreading it out, to evaporate easily on the outside of the fabric. So you stay cool and dry.
