Cotton or Polyester Gym T-Shirts: Which Should Men Wear?
Choose a lightweight polyester-blend tee if you want a lighter layer for a sweaty session. Cotton can suit lower-intensity training or a warm-up when you like a softer, more substantial feel. Weight and fit affect how either fabric feels.
Which T-shirt suits a high-effort session?
The Trek Tee - Blue uses a lightweight polyester-elastane blend with raglan sleeves. The Assault Tee - Black is another lightweight option. Try your normal overhead reach and check whether the neckline or hem shifts more than you’d like.
When would you wear cotton?
The heavyweight cotton Hotel Monaco - White gives you a loose casual layer for arrival or a light warm-up. Cotton can feel heavier once wet, especially in a thicker tee. Choose the weight and cut you’re happy wearing for the whole session.
