Troubleshooting
T-shirt feels damp after activity
Ensure the fabric is not saturated beyond its wicking capacity. For extreme conditions, consider a more robust system. Always wash after heavy use to clear sweat and oils.
Odor control seems less effective over time
Wash the garment with a technical fabric wash or a small amount of vinegar in the rinse cycle to help remove residue. Avoid fabric softeners.
Seams feel irritating
Ensure the t-shirt is the correct size and not overly stretched. Wash the garment before first wear to soften the fabric.
