What material is best for a woman's hiking shirt?
The best materials for women's hiking shirts are synthetic fabrics like polyester or natural fibres like merino wool, as both offer excellent moisture-wicking properties. Unlike cotton, these materials pull sweat away from your skin to keep you dry and comfortable, which is crucial for temperature regulation. Our technical hiking tops often blend these materials with elastane to ensure freedom of movement on challenging terrain, creating the perfect balance of performance and durability. For protection against the elements, explore our range of women's shell jackets.
Are long-sleeve or short-sleeve tops better for hiking?
It depends on the conditions you anticipate on the trail. Short-sleeve shirts are ideal for hiking in hot, humid weather as they maximise airflow, while long-sleeve tops offer sun protection and defence against insects or abrasive foliage. A versatile option is a lightweight, long-sleeve top with roll-up sleeves, providing adaptability as conditions change throughout your hike.
Moisture Wicking Hiking Shirts For Women
Moisture-wicking is a critical feature in a hiking top, referring to the fabric's ability to pull perspiration away from your body and move it to the outer surface, where it can evaporate quickly. This process is essential for maintaining a stable body temperature, preventing the chilling effect of damp fabric against your skin in cooler weather. It also minimises chafing and discomfort during strenuous activity, ensuring you remain comfortable for longer.
Can I wear a cotton top for hiking?
It is strongly advised to avoid wearing cotton tops for hiking, as cotton absorbs moisture and takes a very long time to dry. When you sweat, a cotton shirt becomes heavy, damp, and can rapidly lower your body temperature in cool or windy conditions, significantly increasing the risk of hypothermia. Instead, opt for our specialised women's hiking shirts, crafted from technical fabrics designed to manage moisture and keep you safe and comfortable. For added protection from the sun, consider our selection of hiking caps.
