Whether you’re thinking about heading to the trails, travelling long distances, or spending a long weekend by the sea, our technical t shirt range is designed with comfort in mind.

When on the move, we know how important it is to get the basics right. Our Bali Collection is made from a tri-blend of recycled polyester, Tencel and organic cotton. This fabric composition means our performance tee t-shirts are soft, quick drying and breathable, making these moisture wicking tees the go-to when it comes to choosing what’s right for you.

The lightweight nature of our tech tee range means they are a great base layer. Pair with some bottoms from our hardwearing, water repellent Bara collection or the super stretchy Kalpana tight and be ready to hit the road.

Staying fresh and comfortable

Ever wondered how to keep cool whilst hiking? We have one word for that: layers.

Dressing properly, ready for the elements ensures you keep safe and comfy. Whether you’re hiking in the height of summer, or heading out on a fresh winter’s day, layers are the trick to keep you warm, cool and dry.

Whichever season you’re layering for, it’s always best to start with a technical t shirt, the strongest of foundations.

Our hiking tops are designed to make you feel good on the inside and out. With this in mind, here’s a breakdown of the fabrics and certifications found in our technical tee range, the Bali Collection:

Recycled polyester

Recycled polyester is a durable and high-performance fabric. Known for its soft, flexible and water repellent properties, its ability to withstand frequent wear and washing make it the ideal choice for adventures. We choose to use this fabric not only for its performance, but for its sustainability. Made from recycled plastic bottles, recycled polyester uses approximately 59% less energy to produce than virgin polyester, whilst keeping waste out of landfill and our oceans.

Tencel™

Tencel™ Lyocell is a plant-based fabric made from Lenzing Lyocell. This innovative material is sourced from controlled or certified wood sources, mostly eucalyptus trees, and created through a closed-loop production process to reduce wastage to close-zero levels. We love Tencel™ Lyocell because it’s an environmentally friendly technology known for its antibacterial, moisture-wicking, fast drying, and super soft-to-touch properties. The stable structure of the fibres ensures durability, making it an obvious choice when designing activewear.

Organic cotton

We use organic cotton in our products because we care about people and the planet. Organic cotton is grown free from pesky synthetic pesticides or fertilisers, making it good for the environment and good for your skin. Organic cotton fibres allow airflow, reducing the likelihood of irritation from heat or sweat and resists odour build up. It’s naturally hypoallergenic, making it a great fabric for those with allergies or skin sensitivities.

OEKO-TEX®

We care about the environment, and we know you do too. That’s why we use the OEKO-TEX® certification wherever we can. OEKO-TEX® is a label that provides you with a guarantee all the textiles used in production of the garment are free from potentially harmful substances. This means the garment, from yarn to finished product, has passed a globally standardised test against a list of over 1,000 harmful substances.
