Product Information
Full details
The Rab Force Tee is designed for adult males seeking a lightweight, fast-drying performance t-shirt for high-output mountain activities like hiking, climbing, and running. Its key benefit is superior moisture-wicking and breathability, keeping you comfortable during strenuous efforts. A potential caveat is that while it offers sun protection, it's a technical tee and may not be sufficient for prolonged, intense sun exposure without additional coverage.

Troubleshooting
Tee feels sticky or less breathable
Ensure the garment is clean. Residue from detergents or body oils can affect performance. Wash according to care instructions, avoiding fabric softener.
Chafing under backpack straps
Verify the backpack is adjusted correctly. While the tee's seams are designed for comfort, proper pack fit is crucial. Ensure the tee is sitting smoothly.
Odour persists after washing
Ensure the garment is washed thoroughly on a cool or gentle cycle with a mild detergent. For stubborn odors, a pre-soak in a vinegar-water solution (1 part vinegar to 4 parts water) before washing may help, but rinse thoroughly.
