The Kuhl Airspeed shirt is a lightweight and stretchy active shirt designed for trekking and traveling in hot conditions. UPF 30 rated and extremely quick drying, featuring a moisture wicking fabric and 5- panel roll up articulated sleeves, it gives a far better range of movement than your average shirt, plus all day comfort in the outdoors.
Kuhl's AirVolution fabric is a woven, technical nylon/polyester/cotton blend which blocks the sun's harmful rays, but also feels like a cotton against the skin and boasts all the performance of a synthetic fabric. This fabric works really well when things start to get a bit hot and sweaty, as it actively wicks moisture away from your skin and dries quickly, keeping you cool and comfortable. This base layer like fabric is used across the back and in the arms to maximise wicking and drying whilst the forearms, chest and yoke are made up of tougher polycotton fabric to reduce wear and tear. Kuhl have cleverly combined these two fabrics to blend technical base-layer performance with travel shirt toughness.
Strategically placed Koncealer mesh panels increase airflow and comfort with a mesh so fine it can't be easily detected by the casual glance, so the shirt doesn't look like an overly techy piece. Other neat features to make your life easier include a buttoned down collar, adjustable cuffs and 2 button down chest pockets. Two zipped security pockets are hidden in the chest and you even get a build in sunglasses cleaner at the bottom of the left placket.
Despite its lightweight and breathability, this versatile and practical shirt is tough enough for world travel and rugged trekking.
