A long sleeve shirt, also known as a longsleeve, is a very good choice for many sports: as the bottom layer in winter or worn solo in the transition period. However, cold is not the only reason why a long sleeve shirt for men is a good choice. In strong sunlight, for example, shirts with sunshade protect you.
Long sleeve shirts for men are popular at any time of year and for any sport. They are indispensable when hiking, climbing, bouldering, biking or trekking. They offer more protection and warmth than short-sleeved t-shirts. In our outdoor shop, you can choose between stylish print shirts, functional high-tech shirts and classic leisure shirts.
In contrast to t-shirts, a typical long sleeve shirt for men naturally has long sleeves. Depending on the activity and requirements, it can be fitted with different necklines.
It's all about the combination! Depending on which fibres are combined, your new long-sleeved shirt for men can support you. Cotton is absorbent but dries slowly. Soft merino wool is great, often combined with the benefits of other fibres that provide breathability, elasticity and quick drying. A different material is required for stop-and-go sports than for sweat-inducing sports. Polyester usually offers the greatest advantages here and is often specifically combined with another fibre.
In your recreation, you will prefer things to be comfortable and casual. In this case, your long-sleeved shirt should be cut a little wider. However, the situation is completely different if the shirt is worn as a base layer. Too much fabric would get in the way. The fit must be close-fitting for a baselayer. A good long sleeve shirt made from functional material can certainly replace thermal underwear. However, it must really lie against the skin so that the body moisture that evaporates can be reliably wicked away.
There are special tailored cuts for men. The shoulders are naturally cut a little narrower and the sleeves are not quite as long as those of men. In our outdoor shop, you will also find the right long-sleeve shirt for your kids - just like for adults, with all the functions, mosquito and sunshade protection and, above all, in colours and patterns suitable for children.
