Wear these only while doing your sporting because the stinky bacteria loves that material. In fact, I could reek of bo and simply remove the shirt and be fine. Normally I’m not a stinker unless I don’t shower for days.

…and that afternoon, he got an unexpected package in the mail, with five wicking sleeveless shirts inside. And in the far distance, he heard what sounded like a cackling laugh drawing closer…
…they’ve also got a reflective patch on the back, which makes them a safe choice for midnight mowing.
BZZZZT! Wrong! For midnight mowing, wear a mottled shades-of-very-dark-green Ninja suit so that the newly-awakened snipers will have a hard time resolving your location for the shot. And shut down all of the outdoor lighting.
@werehatrack Heh! I decided it was too hot to mow yesterday afternoon, so I just went in to take a (long) nap. When I woke tenish, I found it not so bad outside. With no neighbors around for several houses either side of street (college students on vacation), I considered mowing that late, but lighting was an issue. If my walk-behind mower had had headlights, I probably would have.
@werehatrack Just checked: 102 F degrees here at 5 pm (guess what the F is for) and lawn is taller than yesterday. Guess I better start looking for my old Meh flashlights and some Velcro or messy duct tape.
@phendrick@werehatrack Better yet, pay one of them college students. They need to work to pay their loan instead of waiting for joe to tell them he’s sticking me with that bill.
@pldmich@werehatrack Ha! They don’t even mow their own lawns. The ones that don’t get lawn care with their rental agreement just let their lawns go. After a few weeks of no water, the yards just turn brown and quit growing.

Exactly as they are supposed to do and have for millions of years. The “suburban lawn” is entirely subdivision marketing schtick invented to sell houses and “the American dream” along with government handout subsidized cheap loans to white people.
The neck opening is undersize and the arm openings are proportionately oversize.
There seems to be none of the flare apparent in the illustration.
The fabric is not-quite-sheer thin.
I’ll update about whether they really are “wicking” after a blistering-weather wear test as soon as I’ve laundered one.

Oooh… Wicking! What’ll they think of next? A beer cooler that makes all your beer flat and strange tasting?
At the end of the day you can wring that wicked-up moisture into a nice tall glass.
@awk Um … no thanks.
/giphy unwanted visual
@awk It’s got electrolytes!
Performance tees? Do I need tickets? And is it PG-13 or less?
@phendrick Depends on who’s taking it off.
You’ve been RICK Rolled!!
@IndifferentDude Wick wolled.
@IndifferentDude @Kyeh EThee for you to thay.
@IndifferentDude @phendrick
Thilly wabbit.
@IndifferentDude @Kyeh
FTFY
Do you have any long sleeve? No one wants to see my pasty noodles.
@hchavers
My morning brain flipped your words to “nasty poodles”. I am not sure what that would mean, but it sounds funny.
@hchavers @thebigtverberg If poodles didn’t occasionally get nasty, they would go extinct.
For real, buy this shirt at SideDeals. It’s clever. (See Pac in the back. Ghosts are real.)
@stinks for real, I bought it when it was originally offered.
@jaybird @stinks I lucked out and got this on a random shirt buy.
@stinks Holy cow, never noticed that detail. It’s even cleverer!
@stinks ok ask for your affiliate bucks, because you sold one
/giphy greedy-whole-llama
Semantics, maybe, but the description says regular fit, and the size chart says “Fitted - buy one size up for generous fit” or words to that effect.
I dunno… regular fit and generous fit seem like two different sizes to me
@sfwineguy 46-48" for an XXL tee. That would be an XL in Hanes, Gildan, etc. These tees are small. Fitted would make them even smaller.
Sleeveless and with sleeves are the same price. Buy sleeves, cut the sleeves off. Free fabric!

Why would I want Wookiee free performance tees? Makes no sense.
Wookieville forever!
These ain’t free
I experienced globus pharyngis last night, will these shirts prevent another episode? Thank you in advanced
If they’d keep me wrinkle free, I’d buy a bunch of them.
@Kyeh I’m with you lolol
The witches of the Scottish play already predicted the sale of these shirts.
Personally, I don’t want to put my myself in danger; I’ll stay clear away from this murder scene.

No pockets. No sale. Sigh…
100% poly…strong pass

Better yet, use that time to get some sleep.

handoutsubsidized cheap loans to white people.Be really careful with the sizes. The last XL were so small they fit my size 6 wife.
“Wicking” Code word for Polyester. If they were Cotton, I’d buy
Finally got them, size M. Observations:
The neck opening is undersize and the arm openings are proportionately oversize.
There seems to be none of the flare apparent in the illustration.
