Main Features
The SixSummit Prologue Elastane T-Shirt is made with 5% elastane which makes it feel extra soft and stretchy. We also have a v-neck equivalent in different colour options, and more colour options with this crew neck will be available soon…
Benefits of Elastane
- Elasticity: Elastane fabric is super stretchy and quickly return to its initial shape. This allows clothes with elastane to contour to the body, providing a comfy and stylish fit – which is extra beneficial for taller people wearing longer length t-shirts.
- Reduces shrinkage: Also extra important for taller people, the elastane does reduce shrinkage, but we still recommend to wash cold and not use a tumble dryer!
- Shape retention: Garments better retain their shape over time.
- Anti-piling: Elastane can resist wrinkling, piling, and sagging, ensuring clothes maintain their original shape and structure. This quality enhances the longevity of spandex-blended garments, allowing them to withstand repeated wear and washing.
- Comfort: Elastane also improves comfort and facilitates movement – allowing the fabric to move with the body rather than inhibit it.
Muscle Fit Considerations
The properties of elastane allow the option for a muscle fit, popular with many brands. Here are some advantages of choosing a tighter fit:
- Confidence Boost: By accentuating your physique, muscle fit t-shirts can help you feel more confident and comfortable in your own skin.
- Physique Enhancement: Muscle fit t-shirts are designed to contour the upper body, highlighting the shoulders, chest, and arms, showcasing a muscular physique.
- Modern and Trendy Style: Muscle fit is a contemporary and stylish choice, offering a modern look that’s both fashionable and functional.
- Freedom of Movement: Stretchy fabric allows for good freedom of movement.
- Enhanced Look: The tapered fit on the arms and chest can create a more defined and athletic silhouette.
However there are some considerations to weigh up which other brands don’t always highlight:
- Restrictive for some: Muscle-fit clothing, while designed to hug the upper body, might feel tight or restrictive, especially for those with a more muscular build who need more room in the chest and shoulders.
- Not suitable for all builds: Muscle-fit clothing is specifically designed for individuals with a more muscular physique, and might not be flattering or comfortable for those with a different body type.
- Can accentuate certain areas: The tight fit of muscle-fit t-shirts can accentuate anything – nipples, even body hairs – which might not be desirable for everyone.
