FAQs
Is this shirt suitable for technical hiking?
While durable, it is made of cotton, which is not recommended for long-distance technical hiking where moisture management and rapid drying are necessary.
What is SUPIMA cotton?
SUPIMA is a superior type of cotton grown in the USA that is known for its extra-long staple fibers, making it softer, stronger, and more color-fast than regular cotton.
Does the shirt shrink?
As a natural fiber product, it is recommended to wash in cold water and hang dry to minimize any potential shrinkage.
Is the fit true to size?
Yes, it follows a standard regular fit, which provides a roomy feel; if you prefer a slim look, you may consider sizing down.
Can I wear this under a harness?
Absolutely. The regular fit and durable material make it well-suited for wearing under a climbing harness without excessive bunching.
Troubleshooting
Shirt fabric feels stiff after washing
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoid overloading the washing machine; adding a short tumble dry cycle on low can help soften the cotton.
Pilling occurs after heavy use
Pilling is normal for natural fibers over time; use a fabric shaver gently to remove surface fuzz.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Arcteryx garment, follow these care instructions:
- Machine Wash: Use cold water on a gentle cycle.
- Detergent: Use a mild, eco-friendly detergent; avoid bleach or fabric softeners.
- Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry in the shade to preserve the integrity of the cotton fibers.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
This shirt is compatible with most climbing harnesses and packs due to its minimal seam construction, which reduces friction points under gear.
