We’ve Found the Perfect Long-Sleeve Workout Shirt and It’s Less Than $20

I’m pretty picky about my workout wear. I mean, is it too much to want clothes that fit great, look great, keep the sweat off my body, and don’t have a ridiculous price tag? In my quest for such clothing I’ve determined that while it can be a challenge, it’s not impossible. Price is a critical factor for me because I don’t view my workout clothing as investment pieces. With as much as I exercise — and sweat — I know that I will be purging and purchasing new items regularly.

So as I started looking for new long-sleeve tops to get me through my winter workouts, I was thrilled to find this great shirt from Champion. Let’s start with the technical details. It’s made with Champion’s Duo Dry fabric that wicks moisture away from your body and dries fast, so you stay dry and comfortable. Thumbholes keep the sleeves in place, no matter how intense your activity. The fit is true-to-size and not too loose or too tight. The back is slightly longer than the front and has two great features: venting to keep you cool and a zipper pocket to stash your ID or a key while you work out. The best part is the price: just $16.99 for black and $22.99 for beautiful shades of lilac, jade, and dark blue. And since it looks good enough to wear even on days you’re not working out, I say get one in every color!
