How should I wash this garment to preserve its breathability?

Wash at a maximum of 30°C. The golden rule for sportswear is to avoid fabric softener: it clogs the micro-pores of the fabric and blocks moisture wicking. Air drying is very quick — avoid the tumble dryer.

Does this t-shirt effectively wick away sweat during intense effort?

Yes, its synthetic fibres are designed to capture moisture and transfer it rapidly to the outside. The fabric dries extremely quickly, saving you from the unpleasant cold sensation caused by sweat during rest stops or on descents.

Does this t-shirt retain bad odours after exercise?

To limit this issue — common with synthetic fibres — our technical t-shirts feature a durable antibacterial treatment. It slows the growth of odour-causing bacteria, a real advantage on long outings.

Who did we design it for?

For hikers who stack up outings in warm weather and want a lightweight t-shirt under their pack.

For those who take the sun-drenched trails and want superior UV protection without overloading.

For practitioners ofsummer outdoor activities who want a versatile t-shirt, from lightweight trail to hiking.

How to wear it?

Wear directly against the skin as a summer base layer. Its extra-fine stretch knit minimises friction. More delicate than a thicker fabric, it requires careful washing to last over time.

What makes it different?

The EIGER 2 is the t-shirt for exposed summer outings. Its ultra-fine micro-striped fabric delivers maximum breathability even under mountain sun.

In summary This content is written by AI

Customers love how light and comfortable it feels, even after a hot, highly active day. They praise its breathable fabric, which wicks sweat away well and dries very quickly: after a trail run, a hike or a machine wash, it is soon ready to wear again. One customer even rinses it in a stream and finds it dry by mealtime. Its attractive cut is also appreciated, and several buyers have purchased it again, including one customer who has bought three. It is especially suited to trail running, sport and hot weather.

The new series (EIGER 2 H) also retains the essential features of its predecessor, both in fit and breathability and quick drying. I also feel the fabric has improved, more resistant to abrasion if you wear it in contact with a backpack. This is the third one I have purchased, and thanks to the very low weight and quick drying, I can face whole days of summer trekking by changing several times; with another Eiger in the backpack, everything becomes easier and more pleasant.

It’s incredible. Whether running or trail running, I’ve never been soaked. It dries quickly and wicks sweat really well. Super lightweight and durable. Used in very hot weather. I highly recommend it.
