Product Information
Full details
The Rab Sonic Tee is an essential high-performance technical t-shirt designed for adult female hikers, mountain runners, and endurance athletes who prioritize weight and breathability. It excels at rapid moisture management and active cooling during intense physical exertion, though its lightweight material is best suited for high-output activities rather than rugged bushwhacking where snagging could occur. Engineered with specialized wicking fabrics and ergonomic construction, this garment ensures you remain dry and comfortable on even the most demanding mountain trails.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this shirt suitable for base layering?
Yes, the thin, lightweight profile makes it an excellent base layer for mountain activities.
Does the sizing run large or small?
The Rab Sonic Tee follows standard sizing; the regular fit provides a comfortable, non-restrictive feel.
Can I wear this with a heavy backpack?
Yes, the low-bulk seams are specifically designed to minimize rubbing and discomfort under pack straps.
How often should I wash it?
Due to the odor-control treatment, it requires less frequent washing than standard cotton shirts, but wash whenever it becomes heavily soiled with sweat or dirt.
Is the material sun-protective?
While the fabric is dense, it is primarily designed for breathability. Always use sunscreen on exposed skin.
What does 'raglan sleeve' mean for the fit?
It means the sleeves extend in one piece to the collar, which removes shoulder seams and improves movement range.
Troubleshooting
Shirt feels damp even during low-exertion activity
Check if you have used fabric softener in previous washes, which can impair wicking capabilities. Re-wash using a technical gear wash.
Fabric develops an odor after one use
Ensure the shirt is allowed to air dry completely after use. Hanging the shirt in a ventilated area immediately after an activity helps the odor-control technology work effectively.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This garment is designed for a regular fit and is true to size for a standard UK 10. To maintain the integrity of the Dryflo Air fabric and the odor-control technology, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash on a cool setting (30°C) with a mild technical detergent.
- Avoid Softeners: Do not use fabric softeners, as they clog the wicking pores of the fabric and render the moisture management ineffective.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. Do not tumble dry at high temperatures as this can damage the microactive seams.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to protect the integrity of the synthetic fibers.
