Product Information
Full details
This Rab Crimp Elevation Tee in Beluga, size Small, is designed for men seeking a versatile t-shirt that performs equally well during outdoor activities like climbing and hiking, as it does for casual everyday wear. Its primary benefit is the Tencel fabric, which offers excellent moisture-wicking and breathability while maintaining a soft, comfortable feel. A potential consideration is that its regular fit may be looser than some prefer for highly active pursuits where a more streamlined fit is desired.

Troubleshooting
T-shirt feels damp after activity.
Ensure you are using the correct washing method and have avoided fabric softeners, which can hinder wicking. For immediate comfort, allow more time for the natural breathability of the Tencel fabric to work, or consider a more active drying method if possible.
Fabric appears to be pilling.
Tencel can sometimes exhibit minor pilling, especially during the initial wears. This is often cosmetic and can be gently managed. Ensure proper washing (inside out, delicate cycle) and avoid aggressive scrubbing.
Fit feels too loose for intense activity.
While designed for a regular fit, for highly dynamic movements, consider pairing it with more form-fitting base layers or opting for a size down if available and preferred. The regular fit is optimal for comfort and casual wear.
