TOUGHMESH™ FABRIC — THE ITALIAN JOB

Built with featherweight Italian ToughMesh in the USA — this top is built to breathe, wick sweat, and shield your skin from the sun’s harmful UV rays. When you get it, it’ll seem lighter than you’d expect and packs down to nothing—perfect for travel, training, and everything in between. Wear often and use hard.

TOUGHMESH™ DETAILS

FEATHERWEIGHT

ToughMesh™ weighs only 100GSM (grams per square meter). That’s 30-40% less weight than normal performance fabrics. Cotton/poly tri-blend weighs in at 145 GSM and other performance shirts at 170-190 GSM — it’s a big difference.

NYLON FOR ADDED TOUGHNESS

To make the fabric tough enough, we use nylon (then add a little stretch). The polyester version repeatedly failed our testing and cost us an extra year that we’ll never get back.

INCREASED AIRFLOW

Mini-perforations are woven into the fabric to increase airflow, speed up dry time, and decrease weight. They’re small and mighty but do not dominate the aesthetic of the shirt.

SUN PROTECTION

ToughMesh™ offers 35 UPF. This means our shirt will provide protection from UV rays. The sun has lots of power, especially in Florida.

LONGER LIFESPAN

An Antimicrobial Treatment was added into the fibers themselves, before the fabric is woven in Italy. This process ensures a significantly longer lifespan of no stink across repeated washings. Lesser fabrics are simply “coated” after they’re milled - which wears off in just a few cycles of a high powered washing machine.

QUALITY TAKES TIME

Every roll of fabric takes 6 hours to complete, using 44 gauge needles. Standard fabric takes 45 minutes and uses 20 gauge needles.

OFF-THE-SHOULDER SEAMS

We moved the seam from the top of the shoulder to the upper chest to remove friction while wearing a ruck - which we hope you do often.

Having the seam across the chest reinforces the upper part of the garment, helping it fit better across the shoulders. 

BUILDING TOUGHMESH™
Like Putting Mud tires on a Really Fast Italian Sportscar

“It took us five years to find the fabric to build the best performance shirt I’ve ever worn. We know how to build stuff right — in this case, what eluded us was world class fabric. Past versions were tough, but weighed too much. They were comfortable, but didn’t dry fast enough. We tested tons of great fabrics over the years that are proven for other uses like cycling or running, but all had a fatal flaw: weakness. It was discouraging to fail over and over and over.”
