Better than basic T shirt w real sleeves
This is it A a t shirt with real sleeves for real women.. fabric is super soft and cottony - doesn’t feel synthetic like some “dry fit” shirts well at least in the yellow heather color.. Did I say the sleeves ar long and loose? ... not those un-flattering tight sleeves that only size two girls can wear. Went back and got the black as it is heathered too. Very pleased.
Very poor quality control - inconsistent sizing
I bought this shirt a few years ago and loved it, so wanted a few more colors. I ordered the grey, black, orange, blue, and pink all in the same size (XL) as the one I bought a few years ago. The fabric is MUCH thinner than the old version (almost see-through) and all five of the shirts are labeled XL but they are all different in size and fit - I could barely get the pink one on (it's >4 inches smaller than my old one - see photo) and the rest range from slightly smaller to slightly bigger than the old one. Very disappointed in such a poor level of quality control - not what I expect from REI.
Traps BO!
It's hard to find women's shirts that have a decent length sleeve (not a tank or tiny little sleeve), so I was really excited to find this. The sleeve length was great, even though the overall shirt length was a little shorter than I expected (I guess I have a longer torso). This would have been fine if not for the fact that this shirt STINKS after even mild workouts. It just traps the BO from my underarms I guess. I use deodorant and do not have this problem with any other shirt. I would have to wear another shirt maybe 5 times in a row before it would start to smell the way this shirt smells after half a workout. No idea why it's like this but it's disappointing.
Great material and fit!
I own three of these shirts. They are lightweight and comfortable. I'm 5'2", 125 lbs, 34A and the size small is loose enough so that I don't feel self-conscious about stuff bouncing around while running but fitted enough so that the shape of my body doesn't get lost in it. REI says this shirt is "semi-fitted" and that seems accurate to me. They're great for running, hiking, backpacking, and climbing. If you're trying to decide between this shirt and REI's Sahara t-shirt, I would say the Sahara has a slightly looser fit, a wee bit more stretch to the material, and might feel a little softer.
New favorite hiking shirt
I never write reviews but I had to say something about this shirt. I wore this shirt every single day on my thruhike of the AT last year and it became my favorite piece of clothing. Lightweight, incredibly breathable, super comfy, moisture wicking, and the quickest drying shirt I’ve ever owned. The fact that it did not hold onto water/sweat and dried insanely fast was a lifesaver on the trail. After a quick wringing out (which for most water out anyway) a wet shirt would airdry fully in about 15 minutes, on or off the body. Simply because of that I will definitely will be buying more.
Nice soft shirt for summer
I'm not a fan of synthetics, but so far this shirt is performing very well. I needed some T-shirts to wear hiking, dog walking and to dog obedience classes that would withstand constant wear and not be stifling in the summer heat. These T shirts fit the bill. I went up one size because I wanted the shirt to be loose and I really like the fit--the arms come down to just above the elbow but aren't constrictive, and the shirt isn't too long, even with the larger size. Overall this is a win. I like the colors but wish REI would make this item in some brighter colors like a deep red or blue. I will probably try the sleeveless version too, and maybe the long sleeve one in the fall.
Obsessed
My original purpose for buying several of these shirts was to have something to wear that would easily fit over my head after neck surgery. They were so comfortable during recovery (and easy to wash and wear) that I kept buying them in multiples of various colors because I didn't want to wear anything else. It's great to have something moisture wicking when I ride my bike, clean my short-term rental space, or do yard work AND they come in fun colors and go well with shorts in the summer or under a smart wool or fleece jacket in the winter. I love the loose fit, the crew neck, and the fact that I don't have to think about what to wear while staying home during a pandemic!
Great multipurpose shirt
I love this shirt. I purchased it for hiking and walking, but quickly realized it's a great travel shirt as well. I wore it on a weekend trip and was able to transition from a hike (where I didn't sweat much) into dinner out with just a change of pants. This doesn't look like a "workout" shirt (except for the small reflective strip on the back neck area but my hair hides that). I also like that it covers the butt pretty well. Like the range of colors, too. I would like to see more bright colors. Just ordered another one! I plan to make this a staple in my summer travels.
Great option for coverage and style
I have to say, these shirts are very stylish. I was tempted to wear mine for every day. Me: 22, 5’9”, 145lb (~66kg), chest 32E — I purchased a size small and it is a good fit while not being too tight in the wrong places. I purchased the green and the blue. I would say the colors are slightly more vibrant than online. (+) I really like the sleeves being longer. It prevents chafing or other discomfort that might occur while out sweating. The curved hem is very flattering, hence wanting to wear it for casual wear, too! The weight is great for warmer runs, and the shirt is thin enough that you could easily layer it as a base layer for transition-weather running. (-) Being taller, I would like the shirt to be a little longer. I find that if I were to wear it with anything lower than a mid-rise short, my stomach would be showing. Even another inch added to the hem would be great. Overall, I am excited to get this in more colors. It will become a staple in my running wardrobe!
Good fit
I like the fit on this shirt—not too tight or too loose. Also like the longer sleeves for more sun coverage and the forward seam placement of the shoulders so there is no rubbing of the strap with a pack. I weigh 126 and the M fits fine. (I often take a L in T shirts because of broad shoulders and long arms, so this must run a little bit large.)
