I don’t know if you have ever walked into a sporting goods store and came across the booth dedicated to X-Bionic. It happened to me a few times, and on each occasion, the impression left by the products I saw was of something from the future. Garments so sophisticated and eye-catching in line that they seem to me to come straight out of a scene from the movie Tron. After admiring them for a long time, I had a chance to try some of them. Today we are talking about the Speed Shirt RT 2.2, a truly amazing jersey.
Comfort and breathability.
The Speed Shirt is a shirt to wear as a first layer during our runs. It immediately appears very soft and comfortable but, once worn, one is surprised to discover how much more than just a T-shirt it actually is. The fabric, the shape, the areas designed for breathability are all elements that give a dual feeling: comfort and protection. When you run you almost don’t realize you are wearing it, so comfortable is it and so successful in accompanying the movements of your arms and shoulders, which, though minimal in running, should not be obstructed. The breathability then is perfect. Even under conditions of high perspiration, the Speed Shirt does its duty fully by keeping the skin dry and cool, but most importantly (and this is the real special feature of X-Bionic fabrics) it retains water vapor developed by the body in the form of sweat in the channels cut in the shirt, thus allowing a kind of natural insulation.
Invisible armor.
At the same time, however, it does not lack a pleasant feeling of support, bandaging in the right places increasing the feeling of comfort. In fact, among X-Bionic products it is categorized as a medium compression product.
I don’t know but I guess.
For ladies, the support on the chest area is great, both for those with small breasts, but also for those with larger sizes, and the seams, thanks to the special seamless processing (seamless, precisely), just do not feel, avoiding the risk of skin irritation.
Perfect both outdoors and indoors.
The Speed Shirt RT 2.2. has excellent wicking behavior even in extremely critical conditions: in indoor workouts on the runner or even on the bike, where you sweat a lot but do not even pull in a breath of air, it ensures that you stay almost completely dry even after 2 hours of very high-intensity effort. In this respect it is one of the best products of this genre.
How beautiful is she?
Looking at it, then, the Speed Shirt makes a good impression. It comes in multiple color variants (black, white and red, two-tone), but however you look at it, it retains that effect of futuristic technology that we like so much. This aspect not at all secondary when combined with substance.
