Product Information

Manufacturers will often disclose how a shirt is intended to fit in the description. From tightest to loosest, here is a list of terms most companies will use: skin-tight, slim-fitting, athletic fit, and relaxed fit. 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 read my best running shorts article, you know SOAR is one of my favorite running apparel companies. Their founder, Tim Soar, treats designing running clothing with the same attention to detail as high-end runway apparel. 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. Created with recycled materials, not only will you be helping the environment, but you’ll remain dry, comfortable, and visible while chasing that personal best.

Furthermore, there is a wide variety of different colours and designs to choose from. These colours include dark blue, dark red, orange, and grey, to name a few. The tradeoff for all that comfort? In my testing, the Strato Tech Tee took the longest time to dry. It’s certainly better than cotton, but doesn’t compare to the other shirts tested in that category. If you drip sweat like a faucet, I’d suggest you look elsewhere, but if you’re a mild sweater looking for a downright comfortable tee, this functions as one of the best running shirts you can buy. 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.: Before I spend a lot on running shirts, I always ask around to see if any of my friends have tried either the brand or model I’m looking at. I also think about wearability for other workouts: Can I throw it on during a HIIT class or while lifting weights? If I can justify it being multipurpose, it’s worth the splurge. If you’re familiar with the Patagonia R1 and its grid pattern, this is very similar, but on a smaller scale. Like Patagonia, Janji’s execution of this design is highly functional and super comfortable.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. It’s cut with a slim, tapered fit and sits with a slightly longer hem than most of the other running shirts I tested, which I loved. Bonded seams sit flat to avoid any hot spots. It’s also treated with Lululemon’s No-Stink Zinc technology, an anti-odor chemical treatment. Available in nine different colours, this short-sleeved running top from Nike is created with both dri-fit technology and a dri-fit breathe. As well as this, you’re also offered increased comfort with the 100% polyester design. Other than that, it’s one of the best running shirts available today and comes with Lululemon’s signature durability, which helps offset the price. Specs: This training tee for men is lightweight, breathable, and manufactured using anti-odour technology. This increases comfort while keeping your top nice and fresh. However, that no excuse not to wash it once in a while!

The New Balance tech heather running top provides increased resistance to odours such as sweat, thanks to its antimicrobial properties. Also, you’ll benefit from the reflective detailing, increasing visibility when running at night, alongside their dry technology to keep you cool, comfortable, and focused on your run. One of the benefits of Nuyarn wool is that it’s 35% stretchier than merino wool, so it’s best worn close to the skin. I’m not a huge fan of tight-fitting shirts, so I opted for a size up, which had a more relaxed fit. Tips and Gear for More Comfortable Miles: How to Prevent Nipple Chafing • All the Running Shirts We’re Loving Right Now • The Best Running Shorts for Men • These are the Best Men’s Running Shoes Other Features to Consider 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. If you’re a diehard for the comfort of cotton, try a 50-50 blend that pairs it with a second, more sweat-friendly material like polyester. You’ll still get some of that cottony softness but with added durability and even UV ray protection. How We Evaluated These Running ShirtsFabric is also a concern: some elasticity can help your comfort levels, especially if you are in-between sizes. Most running tops are made of synthetic fabrics but as in the case of the dhb Merino Short Sleeve Base Layer, natural materials can also provide high-performance, too. Runners spend a lot of time in the sun. While many runners will think to put sunscreen on their face, arms, and legs, putting sunscreen on the skin underneath your shirt may not be as obvious. The sun’s harmful UV rays can penetrate most fabrics, leaving the skin under your shirt exposed to sunburn. Coming in at around 2.7 ounces, it’s an excellent option for high-temp and high-humidity runs. Thanks to the thin construction, I honestly felt like I sweated less in this tee than others I tested. The wind resistance generated by my forward movement seemed to cut right through the shirt to cool me off.
