FAQs

What is the main benefit of the Motiv Aero fabric?

The Motiv Aero fabric is exceptionally lightweight, breathable, and fast-wicking, designed to keep you dry and comfortable during strenuous activities.

How does the odor control treatment work?

The treatment is applied to the fabric to inhibit the growth of odor-causing bacteria, helping the t-shirt stay fresher for longer periods, even during multi-day use.

Is this t-shirt suitable for very cold weather?

While it's lightweight and breathable, it can be effectively used as a base layer under insulating garments in cooler conditions. It's primarily designed for warmer weather or high-output activities where breathability is key.

What is the center back length for a size M?

The center back length for a size Medium is 71cm / 27.9 inches.

How much does the t-shirt weigh?

The Rab Sonic Tee weighs approximately 96g / 3.4oz for a size Medium.

Can I wear this t-shirt for casual use?

Yes, its comfortable fit, lightweight feel, and odor control make it suitable for casual wear, especially in warmer weather or if you prioritize breathability.

What type of fit does this t-shirt have?

The t-shirt features a regular fit, offering a standard and comfortable silhouette that is not overly tight or loose.

Troubleshooting

T-shirt feels damp after activity

Ensure the fabric's wicking properties are not impaired by residue. Wash with a technical fabric wash or rinse thoroughly. Avoid fabric softeners which can clog the fibers.

Odor persists after washing

Soak the t-shirt in a solution of cool water and a specialized sports wash or a mild vinegar solution for 30 minutes before re-washing. Ensure it's fully dried afterwards.

Seams feel uncomfortable

The micro active seams are designed for comfort. If irritation occurs, ensure the garment is not inside out and that no debris has become lodged in the seams. Check for proper fit; a garment that is too tight can exacerbate seam friction.
