Product Information

Like all wool products, the Rhythm Tee has durability issues. After a few snags on trees and brushes, I ripped a few tiny holes in it. But again, it didn’t surprise me. One issue I found unique to Nuyarn Wool is that after many washes, the shirt started to lose its form and stretch out unevenly. You can also find performance tops made with natural materials like Merino wool and even cotton. Merino wool, an exceptionally soft wool sourced from a specific type of sheep, offers remarkable performance capabilities: It breathes well, keeps you warm in cold conditions and vents heat when you get hot, and resists odors. Cotton is generally considered a poor choice for performance apparel—it soaks up sweat and gets heavy—but it does have its fans ( Runner’s World Deputy Editor Jeff Dengate, among them). It can work just fine in chillier weather or for those who prefer the soft feel of a natural fabric. Although the Columbia Montrail Trinity Trail II Women's Vest is advertised as a trail running top, it works equally as well on the road and can even be used for workouts too, thanks to the stretchy fabric and Montrail's signature Omni-Vent moisture management technology: even during strenuous workouts, you won't have to worry about sweat-patches under the arm, making you all self-conscious. If you are after a running top that will keep you cool for sure, go for the Under Armour Qualifier ISO-CHILL Short Sleeve Running Top. The titanium dioxide-infused, ribbon-shaped nylon fibres disperse and pull away heat at the same time. Titanium dioxide is a naturally occurring material and is used widely by the cosmetics industry. It can be found in sun creams, for example. The Sundried Dom 2.0 Running Vest is part of Sundried's Eco Core range, and it lives up to the promise of being environmentally friendly: Dom 2.0 is made from 100% recycled plastic bottles, making it one of the most sustainable running tops on this list.

Generally speaking, most running shirts will use a flat seam construction because the low profile is less irritating and less likely to cause chafing. If you struggle with chafing and it’s centered around the seam, I suggest taking a look at the type of seam. E.S.: For most of my running clothes, I do my best to hang dry everything. It’s tedious, I know, but it really does keep my clothes in good condition for longer. I also use a ‘sport’ detergent that I think does a better job of cleaning and getting out stink. We enlisted the help of long-time running gear reviewer and running coach, Cory Smith. Cory has been running for over 25 years and reviewing running gear since 2014.

Patagonia Capilene Cool Trail Short Sleeve

If UV protection is important to you, don’t buy a heather-colored option. The ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) is 50 for Solids and UPF 15 for Heathers — a significant downgrade.

The Under Armour Qualifier ISO-CHILL Short Sleeve Running Top is fitted close to the skin but not muscle fit, so some air will get under the top to keep you even cooler. The fabric is also super bouncy and has a 4-way stretch construction for added freedom of movement. E.S.: Thumbholes! I love them in long-sleeve shirts. I think people either love or hate these, but they keep my hands warm, and I like the look. Looking for a new tee? You’ve come to the right place – here’s sixteen of the best running t-shirts for men. In fact, it’s more comfortable than your softest cotton tee. Even as I sat down to write this review, I had to do a double-take to ensure it wasn’t cotton. Sure enough, it’s 96% polyester and 4% Elastane. It also has anti-odor and a UPF rating of 30. To prevent chafing, REI kept the shoulders seam-free and used a flat seam construction throughout, something common on shirts nearly double the price.

The sleeves and logo at the front of the top are also highly reflective, helping you remain visible while running at night or in dark conditions. This running t-shirt is no different. Utilising an atomic flash on the collar for a unique style and increased visibility, you’re sure to be looking great while remaining highly visible to oncoming traffic and pedestrians.
