What is the Bug Barrier™ Tech Travel LS?
This technical long sleeve (LS) t-shirt is versatile enough to wear hill-walking in the Peak District, relaxing on a summer evening in camp or simply walking the dog before work. It feels super soft on the skin and breathable enough for extra comfort in warmer weather. A perfect all-year-round t-shirt, layer this underneath a fleece and down jacket when temperatures start to drop.
What is it made of?
This t-shirt is constructed with a combination of polyester and elastane for a lightweight feel and a slight stretch, enhancing freedom of movement when you need it most.
What are its features?
With built-in Bug Barrier™ technology, this t-shirt offers fantastic protection against bitey insects by repelling them away. Using Insect Shield®, an EPA registered treatment applied to the fabric, the technology is proven to provide long lasting, effective protection against creepy crawlies. It's super handy when you're spending a weekend away in the Scottish Highlands or exploring more tropical climates abroad on more extended expeditions.
The polyester jersey wicks away moisture efficiently and dries quickly, so if you have to cross a stream or work up a sweat with some technical scrambling, you won't be left feeling soggy or sticky for long after.
Side panels are seamless, which looks really clean and tidy whilst offering much more mobility and maximising the fabric's stretch performance. Flatlock seams provide a much smoother feel against the skin with less bulk, helping to prevent chafing or rubbing after long periods of wear.
To finish, there's a high-low hem which offers better coverage where you need it, whilst looking pretty trendy too!
How does it fit?
This long-sleeve tee has a trim fit, which helps to enhance the moisture wicking properties of the fabric without feeling tight, clingy or restrictive.
