Icon Tee Performance Details
Fabric Technology & Construction
We built the VRST Men’s Icon Short Sleeve Tee with our proprietary performance blend that combines technical polyester with just enough elastane for natural stretch. This fabric composition delivers moisture-wicking properties that pull sweat away from your skin while maintaining breathability during intense training sessions.
The four-way stretch construction moves with your body through dynamic movements without binding or riding up. We reinforced high-stress areas with flatlock stitching that lies flat against your skin to prevent irritation during extended wear. The fabric weight strikes the perfect balance between substantial feel and lightweight performance, making this tee versatile enough for layering or wearing solo.
Fit & Sizing Guide
Athletic Fit Philosophy
Our Icon Tee features an athletic fit that follows your natural shape without excess fabric. The shoulder seams align with your natural shoulder line, while the body tapers slightly from chest to hem for a modern silhouette that works in and out of the gym.
We recommend ordering your standard size for our intended athletic fit. If you prefer more room or plan to layer, consider sizing up. The tee length is designed to stay tucked during movement while providing adequate coverage when worn untucked. Sleeve length hits mid-bicep for a balanced proportion that flatters most body types.
Care & Maintenance
Machine wash the Icon Tee in cold water with like colors to maintain fabric integrity and color vibrancy. We recommend turning the garment inside out before washing to protect the exterior surface and any printed details.
Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry for best results. Avoid fabric softeners as they can interfere with the moisture-wicking properties of the performance fabric. The quick-dry technology means this tee air-dries rapidly, making it ideal for travel or weekly training rotations. Do not iron or dry clean. With proper care, your Icon Tee will maintain its shape and performance through countless washes.
