Full details
The Berghaus Bowburn Technical Tee is designed for active adults who prioritize comfort and performance during warm-weather outdoor activities. Its primary strength lies in its moisture-wicking fabric and integrated anti-odour technology, making it an excellent choice for long hikes or high-intensity training sessions. However, users should note that as a high-performance technical garment, it requires specific care to maintain the integrity of its moisture-wicking properties and anti-bacterial finish.

FAQs
Is this tee suitable for casual daily wear?
Yes, its moisture-wicking and anti-static properties make it a comfortable choice for daily wear, though it is engineered specifically for active outdoor use.
Does the Bowburn Technical Tee shrink in the wash?
As it is made from high-performance synthetic materials, it is resistant to shrinking, provided you follow the cold-water wash instructions.
What does 'Active Fit' mean?
Active fit refers to a closer-to-the-body cut designed to move with the wearer during physical activity without excessive loose fabric.
Can I wear this under a heavy pack?
Yes, the underarm panelling and durable merrow stitching are designed to reduce friction and irritation caused by backpack straps.
Does the anti-odour treatment wash out?
The HeiQ Fresh finish is designed to be durable, but its efficacy can decrease over many wash cycles. Using proper wash techniques will extend its lifespan.
Is the fabric UV protective?
While the material is dense enough to provide some coverage, it is not specifically rated as a high-UPF sun-protection garment.
Troubleshooting
Fabric feels slightly stiff or sticky after washing
You likely used too much detergent or fabric softener. Re-wash the garment without any detergent or softener to remove residue.
Odour persists even after washing
Ensure you are using a detergent specifically formulated for technical synthetic fabrics, which are better at lifting oils from polyester fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This garment requires minimal setup—simply choose the size that matches your chest measurements for the intended active fit. It is highly compatible with technical mid-layers and waterproof shells, as the smooth fabric resists bunching. To ensure the longevity of the moisture-wicking and anti-bacterial coatings, machine wash on a gentle cycle using cold water. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these leave a residue that clogs the pores of the synthetic fibers and negates the wicking efficiency. Always air dry the garment; avoid high-heat tumble drying, which can damage the synthetic fibers and the integrity of the merrow stitching.
