Russell Athletic Men's Short-Sleeve Dri-Power T-Shirt

Synthetic stay dry shirts are expensive. I was intrigued by the price of the Russell. I ordered just one to see if it was ok and worked as advertised. It did. 90 min workout and it was slightly damp where I would expect. Contrast that with a cotton tee that normally would be wet from neck to navel.The shirt is light and airy. I would call the weave loose. As for fit: I have bought the Nike's and the Large fit very snug. Too snug for me. I apparently do not have the slimline body it fits. So I traded up to the XLarge and it still did not fit me right. 5' 10" and 190 lbs apparently is a little too portly for their goods. Shouldn't have been surprised since the Nike golf shirts don't fit right either. But this shirt is sized for what I would describe as an average shape. Plenty of room to move around, definitely a loose fit as opposed to tight. If you wear a large, order large.I wash all my "dry fit" stuff (tees, golf shirts, shorts, etc.) in cold on gentle with very little detergent and a light spin. Then I hang them to dry (the shirts upside down). They dry fast. Really fast. Everything still looks new and it isn't. Have no idea if a less gentle treatment has any ill-effects but I found something that works and see no need to change anything up.Bottom line: I recently ordered two more.

I am a big guy - 6'-3" and about 215 pounds. I like to wear a tee shirt under an open Hawaiian type shirt. I hate tight fitting tee shirts as I am not an athlete with abs to show off, so I like my tees to be loose and comfy. Taking a trip to Florida and I needed some new tees to take down with me. Not sure what to expect, but the photo of the tee on amazon.com is accurate. The material is very light so I can see the "dri-power" in the description. These are not your usual heavier cotton tees. All the tag says is "Made in El Salvadore with imported inputs" whatever that means. It is kind of nylon light material. Seems to wash up nice - loos fitting just like the picture, and very comfortable to me anyway. It looks good under my un-buttoned shirts.So, I am satisfied. I bought 2 of these and I would buy more if they came in other colors. But at the time I picked these up, this is the only color available.

This seems strange. I ordered this shirt in gray. After it came and I tried it on, I liked it so I ordered it in light blue and maroon. The gray one fits perfectly. I didn't try on the blue and maroon before taking all the tags off and throwing them in the washer. The gray one still fits perfectly. The blue one is a little too small. I haven't worn the maroon one yet. I don't know if the blue one was mis-marked or whatever. I like the gray one. It is lightweight and appears to be well constructed. Just be careful with the sizes and try each one on before you take any tags off so it can be returned if it doesn't fit.

I love these shirts. They are easy maintenance, very comfortable and I really like the sleeve length. They are incredibly durable. I’m a woman, but I wear them for working out and as a sleep top. I wish they were still available in a wide range of colors.

Just recently switched over to these T-shirts from the cotton types. These are really comfortable for me. I can't stand cotton Tees with a crew neck, just makes me feel to constricted. I can't feel these shirts at all. I wear them in the snow and cold and they keep me just as warm as the old cotton ones. In the heat they stay cool and loose. I must have 6 or 7 of these and they are holding up just fine. Sleeves are a little to long for Polo shirts but I'm getting older and don't really give a darn anymore. My comfort is more important. All I can say is try one and you'll probably get more. Oh, you don't have to fold them either, and traveling they dry really quick after a wash. Used these on a 12 day trip to Germany and they worked out super.

This is a great shirt for the price. You can buy the same shirt from Nike, Adidas or Under Armor at Dicks or Sports Authority for $25 to $30. It may not have a swoosh or Adidas symbol on the chest, but the quality is just as good. I was just looking for a good light shirt to hit the gym in or jog in and this is perfect. I purchased 2 shirts and took advantage of the free Super Saver Shipping, $30 total. That's a good deal.I'm 6'-0", 190 lbs and athletic. The large fits me just fine. If you have a belly you will want to go a size up. The torso length and sleeve length are dead on in my opinion.This is a good light weight shirt, perfect for exercising in hot weather.

This is a good athletic shirt for the money - good for hot weather and work-outs. It fits comfortably and does not pinch anywhere, but it is not very long. The moisture wicking is good - the shirt does not cause any skin irritation like some cheap synthetics do, but it is not made from the best fabric I've seen. Personally, I prefer another version of the Russell Dri-Power shirt that had some nylon in the mix, but they don't seem to be selling that one any more. This one is all right, but not superior.

I've purchased several of these R.A. Dri-power t-shirts, and like the fit, which is fairly baggy. I'm 6' and have a long torso, and I especially like the length of these shirts. They do seem to wick away moisture fairly well, and the mesh breathes well. However, the stitching around the collar and shoulders is already coming undone on three of the shirts I bought, and they are only a few months old. (One came new with loose stitching around the collar, but not bad enough to return it, though it has since come undone much more). So I won't buy any more, since the quality control seems pretty poor. Plus, separate from the stitching issue, the mesh material snags very easily. I have an ex-officio mesh tee, and it does not snag, though the cost was at least three times.
