Best Men's Sports T-Shirts 2024-2025

A good sports T-shirt should "breathe" and dry quickly, but manufacturers do not always use high-quality dyes and keep quiet about the fact that synthetics are better for training than cotton. Cotton fibers retain moisture well and remove it poorly, which is why the fabric sticks unpleasantly to the body and takes a long time to dry.

Roskachestvo experts have figured out which men's T-shirts are best suited for sports in 2022. Models from 20 brands were examined, and I present to you the top ten winners.

10. Under armor T-shirt

pzgrtewd

You can buy it for 4527 rubles

This T-shirt made in Bangladesh is made of polyester and elastane. The latter gives it good stretch, and polyester wicks away moisture (79.1%), so your T-shirt won't be so soggy during intense workouts.

The absorption time is 2.6 seconds – an excellent result that meets Roskachestvo standards.

The product is expensive, so it is not surprising that it is processed very well. The seams are even, and the ends of the threads are secured. However, they are not cut, and this is the only drawback of the T-shirt.

The material's coloring can withstand repeated washings, is resistant to friction, and successfully "survived" a solution simulating sweat. Washing and drying did not affect the product's dimensions, it did not shrink or stretch.

9. Reebok T-shirt

Price – 2159 rubles

The T-shirt is made in Pakistan and consists of 100% polyester, which, according to Roskachestvo research, wicks away 82.5% of moisture. Absorption time is only 1.9 seconds.

But the fabric is processed worse than the previous participant in the rating. The seams are uneven, the ends of the threads are not cut off.

8. Putin Team T-Shirt

Price – 5790 rubles

The most expensive participant of the top-10 sports men's T-shirts by price and quality was purchased in the Russian online store Putin-team. The production is also Russian.

The Putin Team material is resistant to sweat, detergents and dry friction. It does not form pellets, and the T-shirt does not stretch or shrink after washing.

7. Domyos T-shirt

Costs 799 rubles

Here is the cheapest workout T-shirt on this list. It is made by Bangladeshi craftswomen from 100% polyester, does not electrify and does not shock.

Water drainage is not inferior to more expensive models - 79.9%, but moisture absorption occurs slightly more than in the previous places - in 2.7 seconds.

Although the lines on the T-shirt are even, the same cannot be said about the seams. Moreover, one of them began to unravel, which did not escape the vigilant experts of Roskachestvo.

Otherwise, there are no complaints about this product.
