This t-shirt offers a lot of comfort. It's light and absorbs the sweat easily. There should be more colors. It's worth investing in this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wore this shirt for a HIIT workout and felt very comfortable. I’m not the biggest of sweaters but during HIIT workouts, I sweat a decent amount and this T-Shirt did a great job at collecting the moisture.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A great lightweight running top. I've mostly worn it as a base layer this winter - it wicks sweat well and is soft, so no chafing - but am super excited to put it to use this summer. Very breathable and bright: perfect for warm weather runs at dusk.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a light, airy, well-ventilated running shirt. It's perfect to wear on it's own on a warm day, or under a light jacket. Fits true-to-size or maybe a little snug but I like my running tops to be fitted.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Max comfort, thin material I really love. Great for an underneath layer or when it’s incredibly warm out. This is the optimal top for me as feels like air on your skin and is very comfy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the all black shirt. Black is my favorite color for athletic apparel and the product looks top notch. Look good, feel good, perform good. The material is excellent, light, and holds up under longer sweaty runs. I’ll be using it throughout my training.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This shirt is light and airy compared to to previous new balance shirts that I have bought before for running. I also think once summer hits I won’t be too sweaty and have the need to take my shirt off when running outside

Soft against skin and comfortable

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the texture of this shirt. It is so soft against the skin and so light. I love feeling light and comfortable while playing pickle ball. It’s easy to wash and it dries real fast. Therefore, it’s always easy to grab. Its quality is amazing, it does not stretch or shrink with washing.
