Review on πŸ‘• DRIEQUIP Big & Tall Men's Short Sleeve Moisture Wicking Athletic T-Shirts by Jake Davies

Too hot and cold! in t-shirts

I used to wear 100% cotton t-shirts mostly. I wanted one of those new high-performance t-shirts that were lightweight, wicked moisture away from the body, and also breathed well to keep me cool. These high quality t-shirts are usually made from polyester, but I've found that not all polyester fabrics are created equal. In fact, it's probably more a difference in polyester fabrics than different weights and types of cotton. This makes buying a good high-performance t-shirt a challenging task. To find the right one for me I bought a few and here are the results of my research: Denali Performance Men's UPF 50+ ProtectUV Short Sleeve T-Shirt - big green - I'm keeping this one but it tends to tighten a little the warm side. Doesn't breathe as well as others. Suitable for cooler weather. DRIEQUIP-ForestGreenHeather-L Men's sweat-wicking short-sleeved t-shirt. This shirt was the worst of the six. The fabric was scratchy and felt warm when worn. It's back. Pretchic Men's Short Sleeve Sport T-Shirt with UPF 50+ UV Protection, Gray Large. This shirt is designed to complement the Revain Essentials T-Shirt. It feels comfortable, is light and breathes well. I plan to buy more. Men's Revain Essentials Tech Stretch Short Sleeve T-Shirt, Navy, Plus Size. This shirt pairs best with a Pretchic t-shirt. It feels comfortable, is light and breathes well. I plan to buy more. BALEAF Men's Quick Dry Short Sleeve T-Shirt Running Training Shirts Heather Red Size L. This t-shirt has a glossy finish on the fabric and was found to be the 'most fashionable' t-shirt of all the t-shirts tested. It looks good, but it doesn't breathe as well as the Revain Essentials Tech Men's Short Sleeve T-Shirt or the Pretchic Men's UV Sun Protection UPF 50+ Short-Sleeve Sports T-Shirt. Hanes Men's Cool Dri UPF 50 Moisture Wicking T-Shirt, Maroon L - I'm keeping this one but it tends to be a bit warm. Doesn't breathe as well as others. Normal for cool weather.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Good but not great
