Product Information
Full details
The Altura Dales Tech Tee is a versatile, unisex garment designed for individuals who value technical performance alongside a casual, everyday aesthetic. It is perfect for cyclists, runners, and outdoor enthusiasts who need a shirt that manages moisture during activity while remaining comfortable enough for downtime. While it excels in versatility, users should note that as a regular-fit technical garment, it may not provide the compression or aerodynamic profile required for high-intensity competitive racing.

FAQs
Is this a unisex sizing?
Yes, the Altura Dales Tech Tee is designed as a unisex garment with a regular fit that accommodates a wide range of body types.
Can I use this for mountain biking?
Absolutely. It is durable and breathable enough for trail riding and mountain biking, though it lacks the rear pockets found on specialized jerseys.
Does the fabric shrink in the dryer?
While durable, it is best practice to air dry the shirt to preserve the fabric's technical properties and the longevity of the graphic print.
Is this a tight, aerodynamic fit?
No, this is a regular-fit tee designed for comfort and everyday wear rather than the tight aerodynamic fit of professional cycling jerseys.
Will the moisture-wicking performance fade?
By avoiding heavy fabric softeners and following the washing guidelines, the moisture-wicking performance will remain effective for a long time.
Troubleshooting
Shirt feels damp after heavy activity
Ensure you are not wearing a non-breathable outer layer; the tech fabric needs airflow to evaporate the moisture it wicks.
Print appears faded after washing
Turn the garment inside out before washing to protect the graphic from friction against other items.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
As this is a standard t-shirt garment, no technical setup is required. The Altura Dales Tech Tee is designed to fit into your existing wardrobe as a base layer or a standalone top.
Care Instructions:
- Wash in cool or lukewarm water with similar colors.
- Avoid using heavy fabric softeners, as they can coat the moisture-wicking fibers and reduce their effectiveness.
- Air drying is recommended to maintain the integrity of the Yorkshire Dales print, though the garment is generally easy to care for.
- Check the garment tag for specific temperature limits to ensure the fabric remains soft and breathable.
