The 247 t-shirt is one of our best selling and best fitting t-shirts we have made. The soft touch fabric is very comfortable, and its 4-way stretch materials & raglan sleeves allow for maximum mobility during the run. The fabric is also sweat wicking, which allows your sweat to move around the garment so it evaporates quicker, which allows you to keep cool, and its flat locked seams ensures you wont feel any irritation during your run. The 247 t-shirt comes in multiple colours. Check out our full range of lightweight t-shirts for more options.

247 Cap

 A cap is an absolute essential when running in hot weather, not only does it help shade your eyes from the sun which is ideal, but it also helps protect the skin on your head so you don't burn during the run. You can wear the cap normally so you can protect your face, or you can reverse the cap so you can protect the back of your neck.
