Choose the Right Running Shirt

Brands like Adidas, Asics, and Nike offer a wide range of running shirts. The running shirts from these brands are made of breathable materials with moisture-wicking properties. This ensures your body stays dry and cool. To run comfortably and enjoyably, it is essential to choose the right running shirt. We’re happy to explain the different models to you.

Long-Sleeve Running Shirt

Planning to run in autumn or winter? Opt for the three-layer system and wear a long-sleeve running shirt, base layer, and running jacket. The base layer quickly wicks away sweat and fits snugly against your body. The long-sleeve running shirt keeps you warm and further transports sweat from the base layer. We recommend wearing a long-sleeve running shirt up to 15°C to avoid getting cold while running.

Short-Sleeve Running Shirt

While running, you warm up quickly, so you might be inclined to choose a short-sleeve running shirt. However, it’s important to consider the outdoor temperature before eagerly putting on a short-sleeve running shirt. Our advice is to wear a short-sleeve running shirt only when it’s warmer than 15°C outside. At Plutosport.com, you’ll find running shirts for both men and women in vibrant colors or neutral shades like black.

Running Tank Top

If it’s really warm outside and you tend to heat up quickly, a running tank top is perfect for you! With your arms exposed, you’ll enjoy plenty of fresh air while running. Your body stays cooler longer when you wear a tank top for running. Many sleeveless running tank tops are made of polyester, a breathable, moisture-wicking, and quick-drying material.

The Best Running Shirt for Every Season

Now that you know about the different types of running shirts, it’s important to wear the right one. Which running shirt you choose depends on the weather conditions and your personal preference. Most running shirts are lightweight and made of polyester, a fabric that breathes and wicks away sweat, keeping your body cool and dry. Some running shirts have ventilating mesh panels, reflective details, or UV protection. At Plutosport.com, you can also find running accessories and reflective items to complete your running outfit!

Some brands apply special technologies in their running shirts. Nike, for example, uses Dri-Fit technology, which helps wick sweat away from your body so you stay comfortable and dry during exercise. Adidas features ClimaLite technology, while Asics incorporates MotionDry technology, both designed to keep your body dry and cool by quickly wicking away sweat.

How to Wash a Running Shirt

Check the label in the shirt for washing instructions. Wash your running shirt immediately after exercising to prevent sweat from setting into the fabric. Avoid using fabric softener. Do not tumble dry your running shirt; instead, hang it up to dry.

Tip

Some running shirts have a small pocket to store items like a key.
