Mountain Equipment Ignis Tee - Blue - Slim

Polygiene is an anti-microbial treatment that prevents the growth of odor-causing bacteria, allowing you to wear the shirt for extended periods, especially on multi-day trips, without developing unpleasant smells.

Machine wash cold with a mild detergent, avoid fabric softeners and bleach, and tumble dry on low or hang dry. Do not iron.

The tee is designed for high-output activities and performs well for running, hiking, climbing, and other aerobic pursuits in mountainous terrain due to its wicking and breathable properties.

While it is lightweight and breathable, it's primarily designed as a base layer. In very warm weather, it can be worn as a standalone top, but its main function is moisture management and layering.

This indicates the fabric's weight, meaning it weighs 120 grams per square meter. This weight is considered lightweight, contributing to the tee's comfort and breathability.

The slim fit is intended to reduce bulk, making it easier to layer over or under other garments without feeling constricted or having excess fabric bunching up, which is crucial for comfort with packs and harnesses.

The tee is made from polyester, chosen for its excellent durability, moisture-wicking capabilities, and quick-drying properties.

Ensure the garment is not too tight, which can restrict airflow and wicking. Verify that no fabric softener was used in the wash, as this can impede moisture transfer.

While Polygiene is effective, prolonged heavy use may require a thorough wash with a technical gear cleaner. Ensure the garment is fully dried, as dampness can reactivate odors.

Adjust the pack or harness to ensure it is sitting correctly. The flatlock seams are designed for comfort, but improper gear fit can still cause pressure points.
