TOUGHMESH(TM) FABRIC - THE ITALIAN JOB A featherweight training shirt that thrives during your hardest workouts and dries lightning fast. We built these tees to our exacting standards using proprietary, made-in-Italy ToughMesh(TM) fabric. "Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication" - da Vinci ToughMesh(TM) is our world-class, featherweight fabric milled at the foothills of the Italian Alps, not far from where da Vinci painted The Last Supper. It took us five years to develop, test and prove a fabric that could thrive in our way of life - no cost, time, or rigor was spared to create a line of apparel that&';s tough enough to endure the demands of rucking and training and will dry long before you finish your cooldown. We&';re proud of the outcome and hope you wear it hard. Features Built out of world-class, featherweight ToughMesh(TM) Small GORUCK spearhead on chest Classic fit - patterned after our best-selling Triblend T-shirts and Tanks but cropped for style, then built from the ground up. Materials Dark Grey & Light Grey: 80% Nylon, 15% Elastane, 5% Polyester Black & Ranger Green: 85% Nylon, 15% Elastane About ToughMesh(TM): "Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication" - da Vinci. T&';s transition easily from the driveway to the streets to the bar. With and without a ruck on your back. ToughMesh(TM) weighs only 100GSM (grams per square meter). That&';s 30-40% less weight than normal performance fabrics. To make the fabric tough enough, we use nylon (then add a little stretch). The polyester version repeatedly failed our testing and cost us an extra year that we&';ll never get back. Every roll of fabric takes 6 hours to complete, using 44 gauge needles. Standard fabric takes 45 minutes and uses 20 gauge needles. Quality takes time. Mini-perforations are woven into the fabric to increase airflow, speed up dry time and decrease weight. They&';re small and mighty but do not dominate the aesthetic of the shirt. ToughMesh(TM) has a rating of UPF 35 - this means that you will get more protection from UV rays than a standard training shirt
