Harrop Tee
£95 castore.com
A premium price but if
you have the money this
is a good investment. It
features some of the best
anti-odour technology
weâve come across and is
cut from one piece of
cloth to limit chaing. It
may be a little heavy for
some but the weave helps
to regulate temperature
so youâll stay cool.
7. Björn Borg Tee
£25 bjornborg.com/uk
This one comes with
a bold claim from the
company: âthis T-shirt is
one youâll want to buy in
bulk.â Asking for trouble
you might think but this is
excellent value. It has few
bells and whistles but itâs
comfy reliable distinctive
hard-wearing and comes
in a standard cut thatâs
accommodating without
being shapeless.
8. 2XU Ghst Tee
£40 2xu.com
We like this top so much
that it features in both
the womenâs and menâs
line-ups in this review.
Its primary function is
to be comfortable and
light enough to make
you almost forget youâre
wearing it and it does a
great job. For long training
runs in the dog days of
August this should be a
go-to piece of kit.
9. Falke Air
Ventilation
Tank Top
£80 falke.com
The clue is in the name
here. Itâs a close-itting
top that is in essence
just one big mesh panel.
But it manages to be
breathable ventilated
wicking and fast-drying
with no fuss. Think of
this as the butler of your
running wardrobe: classy
unobtrusive and eicient.
10. Soar Raglan
T-Shir t
£69 soarrunning.com
Raglan sleeves are always
welcome in a running top- the greater freedom of
movement they ofer means
thereâll be no riding up or
underarm chaing on long
runs. Itâs a semi-itted cut
so it sits quite close around
the hips and stomach.
There are relective logos
on the front and back for
running in the twilight.
