They Changed My Favorite Shirts!

    Comments about REI OXT Tech T-Shirt - Men's:

    I loved the predecessors to these shirts. I own 7 long and short sleeve versions with the single stitched seam along the shoulder and side. My wife saw a new color and thought I would like it for valentines day but after trying it on, I discovered that somethings were different. The fit of these new shirts with double stitched seams on the shoulder & side has changed. They are tighter through the torso, longer, & the extra seam connecting to the sleeve creates an unattractive ridge. I hope that someone from REI with some authority sees this and retools the OXT shirt line.

    This shirt runs small. If it's replacing the original oxt shirt, i would not recomend this one. the original oxt fits much better. this one restricts movement.

    Nice shirt, but poor moisture control

        Comments about REI OXT Tech T-Shirt - Men's:

        I use the shirt to go jogging. It looks great, and the workmanship is fine. But I was disappointed at its inability to control moisture. I was hoping I could exercise in the winter, yet avoid having a soaking wet shirt plastered against my body. However, I found it is no better than a regular cotton t-shirt. Do NOT believe the claims about it wicking away moisture from the skin. [...]reflect reality.

        This used to be the perfect shirt. And I mean perfect. Perfect for me, perfect for what I did. I'm glad I bought a bunch of them because the new one is NOTHING like the old one. The fit is not right, the stitching is not right, and they appear to have changed the intention for this shirt by changing the fit. What happened? Why do this? Please, please, PLEASE bring back the original and release this new version as something else.

        Comments about REI OXT Tech T-Shirt - Men's:

        I agree with Casual Enthusiast. I LOVED this shirt. Just brought home the new version. ARGH!!! The previous design wasn't broken; why did REI feel like they had to go and try to fix it?!? It's a completely different shirt. Yes, it's probably very well designed for sports/working out. It used to be a great, casual shirt that I could work out in, hike/backpack in, hang out in front of the TV in. Now it's too uncomfortably tight for anything but working out and then changing into something more comfortable for everything/anything else.

            Comments about REI OXT Tech T-Shirt - Men's:

            I used to love the old OXT shirt and when I brought the new version it seemed to be an improvement. I find the fit is a bit better and I like that there's no tag inside the collar. Unfortunately, I then made a very tragic mistake: I went for a 10 mile run in this shirt. Simply put, this shirt is terrible for running. You might as well run in a cotton t-shirt. At first I thought it was because the weather had recently warmed up but after several runs I became convinced it was the shirt. I actually went so far as to conduct a little experiment by doing back-to-back 1 hour runs and weighing this shirt and the old shirt immediately after I finished each run. Sure enough in each of the 5 test runs the new shirt weighed more meaning it retained more sweat. Not good! I looked inside and noticed they change the fabric blend from 100% polyester to a 92% poly/8% spandex blend. You wouldn't think 8% spandex could so badly alter the fabric but apparently it does.

            The folks at Gear & Apparel in Kent took a big step backwards with this shirt. I hope they see the feedback and made some appropriate changes. The OXT line has until now been a great value but for now at least I'll be switching brands and returning this shirt.

              Excellent for travel as an underlayer or by itself. Easy to wash out; drys quickly. Lightweight to pack. Great for exercise. If you're between L and XL, buy XL.
              I love these shirts. Best exercise shirt I've owned. They last forever.

                This is great for multiple uses as it breathes so well and dries quickly. My work allows casual wear, so I can ride my bike to the office and leave this shirt on unless it is extremely hot outside. Also, it has a nice look for a casual night out. I have the red and blue, great to see the white is now available which I just purchased.

                  I like both cuts. The old cut has a looser fit whereas the current one is a slimmer fit, which is the today's style, I guess. However, REI should continue to have both cuts instead of just the today's slim fit version. People with sculpted figure will like the slim-fit version, and those with fuller figure will like the loose-fit. I would like to have both depending on my activity.

                  This was a much better shirt when it was a true T-shirt. Now with the top and side panels, it is too boxy and retrictive. Please bring back the real T.
