Technical trail t-shirts for your Ultras
Developed with our compression technologies that stimulate blood microcirculation and ensure body thermoregulation during exercise, CimAlp running t-shirts guarantee you best support muscles that are less fatigued during exercise. This allows you to maintain perfect posture throughout your races, even after many kilometres.
To guarantee unrivalled freedom of movement during exercise, go for running t-shirts combined with 3D Flex technology, whose stretch properties are highly extensible. Seamless fabrics are also an excellent choice to give you optimal comfort and zero friction.

What are the most suitable materials for a trail t-shirt?
For a trail t-shirt, it is recommended to choose materials that offer good breathability, wick moisture and dry quickly. This will help keep you cool and comfortable during your run and prevent moisture from building up on your skin.
Polyester is a popular synthetic material for sportswear due to its high moisture-wicking capacity and breathability. It also dries quickly and is durable. Nylon is another popular synthetic material for sportswear. It is lightweight, durable and offers good breathability. Polyester and spandex blends offer great stretch, which can be useful for dynamic movements during trail running. They are also breathable and wick moisture. Merino wool blends are a popular choice for trail runners due to their natural temperature-regulating properties, natural odour resistance and softness against the skin. Merino wool blends can also offer good breathability and moisture management.
Are there any additional features to look for in a trail t-shirt?
Yes, there are certain additional features you can look for in a trail t-shirt to improve your comfort and safety during a race. Some trail t-shirts have integrated pockets for storing accessories such as energy gels, keys or cards. These pockets can be very useful for longer trail races where you need to carry supplies. For your safety, trail t-shirts with reflective elements are an excellent choice for runners who plan to run early in the morning or late in the evening, or in low-light conditions. It is important to look for a trail t-shirt with a lightweight, breathable fabric that wicks moisture to keep you cool and comfortable during your run.
If you plan to run in full sun, look for a trail t-shirt that offers UV protection.
Is it important to choose bright-coloured trail t-shirts for better visibility on the trails?
Yes, it is indeed recommended to wear bright-coloured clothing for better visibility on the trails, especially if you run in areas where there are hunters or vehicles. Bright colours can help you stand out from your surroundings and avoid accidents. Colours such as yellow, orange and pink are generally considered highly visible and can be a good choice for trail clothing. However, it is also important to look for clothing with reflective elements to improve your visibility at night or in low-light conditions. Reflective elements, such as reflective strips, bounce back light from headlights or other light sources to make you more visible. Ultimately, the choice of colour and reflective elements will depend on your personal preferences and the conditions in which you plan to run.
