Why Wear a Running Singlet?
A sleeveless running shirt provides ventilation under your armpits and along your back. This allows you to stay cool and dry for longer when running in warm conditions. Tank tops are made of a soft, sweat-wicking fabric with a breathable construction. Almost all tank tops have flat seams, so that no irritation can occur when running. Many tank tops for athletes feature mesh panels that provide a high degree of ventilation when running. Many singlets are made of polyester because this material dries fast and ventilates well.
