Merino Wool Workout Shirts

Outlier Launches New Flagship Workout Shirt, the 'Sprotweight Merino'

— January 18, 2022 — Lifestyle
Performance-focused sportswear brand Outlier has introduced the 'Sportsweight Merino' shirt, an odor-resistant athletic shirt made from a 50/50 blend of extra-dry top-capped 16.5-micron merino wool and recycled polyester.

Thanks to its unique blend of fabrics, the new flagship piece boasts high levels of moisture control. This is because the two materials -- merino and recycled polyester -- work to keep wearers dry in different ways. In addition, the t-shirts use 2-ply 100s yarn, an upgrade from Outliers' previous 'Runweight' t-shirt, which was constructed from a 1-ply composition. As a result, the new t-shirt is just as hard-wearing as they are moisture-wicking.

Currently, the 'Sportsweight Merino' shirt is being offered in two styles: a classic fit called 'Cut One' and a boxy version titled 'Cut Two.'
