About ToughMesh™:

  • “Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication” - da Vinci. T’s transition easily from the driveway to the streets to the bar. With and without a ruck on your back.
  • ToughMesh™ weighs only 100GSM (grams per square meter). That’s 30-40% less weight than normal performance fabrics.
  • To make the fabric tough enough, we use nylon (then add a little stretch). The polyester version repeatedly failed our testing and cost us an extra year that we’ll never get back.
  • Every roll of fabric takes 6 hours to complete, using 44 gauge needles. Standard fabric takes 45 minutes and uses 20 gauge needles. Quality takes time.
  • Mini-perforations are woven into the fabric to increase airflow, speed up dry time and decrease weight. They’re small and mighty but do not dominate the aesthetic of the shirt.
  • ToughMesh™ has a rating of UPF 35 - this means that you will get more protection from UV rays than a standard training shirt

Claire ★★★★★

I’ve worn this on two long-haul flights and a 10-mile trail run, and the mesh keeps me dry even in humidity — the sun protection is a bonus I didn’t know I needed. The fabric is surprisingly soft against skin despite how thin it is, and it doesn’t cling when I sweat.

Aurora B. ★★★★★

The Italian mesh is so featherlight I forget I’m wearing it, and it actually kept me cool during a sweaty hike while blocking the sun. I’ve already ordered a second one for work travel.

Chloe ★★★★★

Packed this for a weekend trip and it barely took up any room, but the fabric feels way more protective than its weight suggests. The mock neck sits perfectly under a jacket, and I didn’t feel clammy even after a sweaty day of sightseeing.
