Mountain Hardwear CoolHiker Short Sleeve Men's T-Shirt

Mountain Hardwear CoolHiker Short Sleeve T: Ideal Go-Anywhere Travel Shirt

As an avid hiker, I’m damn loyal to just a handful of outdoor brands. Mountain Hardwear is one, as they manufacture some of my favorite travel/adventure wear. Their technical shirts have allowed me to pack far less than ever before, including just three shirts for a six-week trip to Africa. (Just a carry-on for a trip around the world? Sounds good to me!)

Their latest CoolHiker™ Short Sleeve T is billed as “the coolest technical tee on the market for hiking and backpacking.”

The shirt’s Cool.Q ZERO tiny circles are filled with a lightweight (just a hair over 6oz!), sweat-activated cooling agent that lowers the overall temperature of the fabric, accelerates the wicking process and helps your body maximize energy. For travelers, the quick-wicking feature almost means that it’s quick-drying on laundry day. In my experience, it can go from dripping wet to bone dry in a matter of hours.

Oh and it’s made from a DryTouch Spun Poly Jersey material so it’s durable yet insanely comfortable. It feels like wearing your favorite cotton tee.
