What is the fabric and weight?

It is a 5.2-ounce jersey knit, 95% polyester and 5% elastane, so it stretches and dries fast.

Does it really block the sun?

Carhartt rates it UPF 50+, which covers the fabric itself. Coverage is long-sleeve, so arms and torso are shielded.

Will it keep odor down?

It has built-in odor control that Carhartt describes as long-lasting. It is meant to stay fresher between washes on sweaty days.

It is a men's cut with raglan sleeves and stretch for range of motion. The knit is close to the body, so size up if you want a looser layer.

Is it warm enough for winter?

No. It is a lightweight, breathable summer piece. In cold weather it works as a base layer under a jacket.

What makes it different from a standard cotton tee?

Fast drying, stretch, odor control, ventilation and UPF 50+ set it apart. A cotton long-sleeve is softer and warmer but dries slower.
