Product Information

Full details

This men's running top from Dare 2b is designed for active adults who participate in outdoor activities, especially those involving running or near water. Its key benefit is its lightweight, quick-dry fabric that manages moisture, provides UV protection, and resists odor, ensuring comfort during strenuous exercise. A potential caveat is that while versatile, its specific design may be best suited for performance-oriented activities rather than casual wear. Key features include sweat-wicking, rapid drying, antibacterial properties, UV 50+ protection, SEAMSMART technology for freedom of movement, and thumb loops for enhanced comfort.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What material is this running top made from?

The running top is made from a lightweight textured stretch fabric consisting of 90% recycled polyester and 10% elastane.

Is this top suitable for cold weather?

While it provides UV protection and manages moisture, it is a lightweight midlayer. For colder weather, it is best worn as a base or mid-layer under warmer insulation.

Can I wear this for swimming?

The product is suitable for activities in sea water due to its durable and quick-dry properties. It's designed to handle moisture and abrasion common in such environments.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Refer to the brand's sizing chart for accurate measurements. The SEAMSMART technology and stretch fabric are designed to provide a comfortable, adaptable fit.

What does SEAMSMART technology do?

SEAMSMART technology is engineered to minimize seams, providing greater durability and freedom of movement, reducing the risk of chafing during active pursuits.

Does the hood offer adjustable features?

The hood is a grown-on hood with elastication for a secure fit, but it is not adjustable beyond its elasticated edge.

How often should I wash this garment?

Wash after each significant use to maintain fabric performance and hygiene. Follow the care instructions carefully to preserve the fabric's properties.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels less breathable or is not wicking sweat effectively.

Ensure you are not using fabric softener during washing, as it can clog the fabric's pores. Wash with a mild detergent and rinse thoroughly. Check for any debris or build-up on the fabric surface.

Garment retains an odor after washing.

The antibacterial treatment helps, but stubborn odors can sometimes persist. Try a pre-soak in a solution of water and white vinegar (1 part vinegar to 4 parts water) for 30 minutes before washing. Ensure the garment is fully dried, as moisture can encourage bacteria growth.

Thumb loops feel restrictive.

The thumb loops are designed for a snug fit to stay in place. If they feel too tight, try gently stretching them over a rounded object or ensure you are wearing the correct size. They are intended to provide support and coverage, not overtighten.
