The best new training t-shirts for men
Upgrade your workout wardrobe and make a statement of intent next time you step in the gym with these best new training t-shirts for men
What separates a good workout t-shirt from a great one? The first sign is how it makes you feel. We’re serious. Because wearing a tee that’s comfortable and makes you feel good as you walk into the gym means you’re going to feel more confident and motivated to get the very most out of your workout. And that means you’re already half-way there to smashing your session.
From a technical point of view, your tee needs to be made of breathable material that will help keep you cool and dry during your workout. It should also be able to withstand the rigours of exercise – such as stretching, bending, twisting, the “pump” – without becoming stretched out or losing its shape.
Last but not least, especially for sweaty sessions or high-intensity interval training drills, your t-shirt should be able to wick moisture away from your skin, which will help prevent chafing and other uncomfortable skin irritation.
That’s why a great gym t-shirt is important. It can help you stay comfortable and focused during your workout, allowing you to get the most out of training time. Here’s our guide to the very best new training t-shirts for men!
