Review:
As with the Salomon Fast Wing Tee Shirt, I bought this one in Dubai for really hot days. I have been using it on multiple occasions on hikes and runs. Despite its thin and breathable fabric, it does not seem to be keeping you as cool as I was expecting it. Somehow the fabric keeps the heat trapped and this shirt in fact feels hotter than a regular cotton T-Shirt. Not really impressed although its marketed as a breathable, light-weight shirt.
Pros:
- Light and comfortable, however not suitable for hot and sunny weather.
- Easy to wash, dries fast.
Cons:
- Despite its thin fabric, it still feels very warm to wear.
Comment:
Feels very comfortable, however I would not buy it again as it is not feeling as cool in hot weather as other similar shirts I have. It is not the breathable fabric as the marketing ads claim and certainly feels hotter than a regular cotton shirt.
