FAQs

What is the primary material of the Asics Core Short Sleeve T-Shirt?

The T-shirt is primarily made from polyester, with at least 50% of the main material derived from recycled sources.

Is this shirt suitable for very hot weather?

Yes, the lightweight and quick-drying fabric is designed to manage moisture effectively, making it suitable for hot weather activities.

How does the longer rear hem benefit the wearer?

The longer rear hem provides additional coverage and helps keep the shirt in place during movement, preventing it from riding up.

Can I wear this shirt for casual outings?

Absolutely. Its minimalist design and comfortable fabric make it a versatile choice for both athletic pursuits and casual, everyday wear.

What does 'flatlock seams' mean for my comfort?

Flatlock seams are stitched in a way that the seam lies flat against the skin, significantly reducing the potential for irritation and chafing compared to standard seams.

How visible are the reflective details?

The reflective details are designed to catch and reflect light sources, such as headlights, thereby increasing your visibility to others in low-light or dark conditions.

Is the sizing consistent across different colors and sizes?

While this guide focuses on the grey XL, sizing can vary slightly between production runs. It is recommended to consult the specific size chart provided by the retailer if available.

Troubleshooting

Shirt feels damp or sticky after activity.

Ensure the garment is washed with like colors and without fabric softener, which can impede moisture-wicking. Check that the garment is not overloaded in the washing machine to allow for proper rinsing.

Chafing is still occurring.

While the flatlock seams are designed to reduce chafing, ensure the fit is correct (not too tight or too loose) and that any tags have been removed. Consider wearing a base layer if sensitivity persists.

Reflective details are peeling or damaged.

Avoid high heat when drying and do not iron directly on the reflective areas. If damage has occurred, the reflective properties will be compromised in those areas.
