The benefits of a women’s technical T-shirt

To put it simply, technical clothes are items made out of special fabric. This fabric should check all the boxes when it comes to performance quality, such as being breathable, having wicking properties, cooling, heat protection or waterproofing.

At Columbia, we develop a range of technologies for creating the optimal clothing gear for various activities. One example of such a tech optimisation is how we make a women’s technical T-shirt.

There are two main types of technology we use on women’s tee items:

• Wicking technology
• Cooling technology

First things first. Our wicking technology is used so your clothes can wick away any extra moisture, be it sweat or rain. Other benefits of our wicking technologies are, for example, air circulation and faster evaporation. We also have several sub-types of wicking technologies, such as Omni-Wick™ Evap and Omni-Wick™.

Then we have our cooling technologies, reducing the risk that you’ll get too hot when you’re out on your adventures. And they are cool in every sense of the word! They also have several subtypes, like Omni-Freeze™ Zero Ice and Omni-Freeze™ Zero. They’re designed to give you a longer feeling of cooling. Other benefits of our cooling technologies are quick drying and fast wicking as well as touch activation and sweat activation.

How to choose your ideal women’s technical shirt

When it comes to women’s technical T-shirts, we’re happy to say that we have a wide range of items for you to choose from. Some of them are:

• Short sleeve T-shirts
• Long sleeve T-shirts
• Hoodies
• Polo neck shirts
• V neck shirts
• Long sleeved shirts with thumb holes
• Special running technical T-shirts

When you’re ready to choose, make sure you know exactly what kind of shirt you need. For the ladies whose heart is in outdoor sports, we have a broad range of short sleeved technical T-shirts. You’ll love running and exploring in these breathable T-shirts! They’re super comfortable due to elastane in the fabric.

All our items from vests to a basic tee or tank top are great in reducing your body’s exposure to sweat. This makes them ideal for both the gym and the top of the hill.

And now for the fun part: options! We love talking about various options because we’re dedicated to giving women a whole range of items to choose from. That way, picking out a simple shirt is a fun experience.

Without further ado: our sizes range from extra small to medium and all the way to XXL. If you want to view smaller or larger sizes, just click the filtering options. You also have many garment colours and fun patterns to choose from. If you have a favourite colour, use the filter to narrow down the options shown.

We’d also like to add one thing: many of our tee shirts and other items are multi purpose. That means women can, and should, use them both on a mountain and while running errands or walking around town. The trick is in combining. Pairing a fun women’s technical shirt with a casual fleece will make an easy and fun go-to outfit for a whole range of activities and places.
