Long Sleeve Performance Tee Shirt

The Headsweats Long Sleeve Performance Tee Shirt offers incredible comfort during a bike ride, and it’s inexpensive and made from repurposed plastic bottles. Whether you’re training, racing, recreating, or working out, this lightweight and a highly breathable long-sleeve jersey designed to fit an active lifestyle.

It’s made of 100% Polyester Pintec REPREVE fabric, a sustainable and recycled fabric, and this particular garment utilizes the equivalent of five plastic bottles. Repreve itself is only a polyester fiber, and not the material or the finished garment, so a fabric mill purchases the yarn from the manufacturer Unifi and then weaves it into a fabric. Turning recycled bottles and waste plastics into a sustainable piece of apparel offers innovative properties such as moisture-wicking, adaptive warming, and cooling, breathability, and more. Headsweats is proud to be going green with their Repreve tee shirts yet still provide you with superior performance apparel without sacrificing quality.

It comes in a Blue Fade or Blue Orange color scheme, XS to 3XL sizes, and retails for a mere $24.
