Mountain Hardwear Cragger Short Sleeve Tee : Good To Go On The Go

I like to be green these days. Whether I'm hiking up a mountain, scaling a cliff, or riding a bike, I'm keeping my carbon footprint as small as possible.

Same goes for my clothes. I'm starting to pay more attention to labels, and to the growing number of companies making apparel out of organic, recycled, and sustainable materials. 

My Mountain Hardwear Cragger short sleeve shirt is made of organic cotton and recycled polyester. It feels great on my skin and doesn't chafe at the seams thanks to flat-lock stitching. This top also allows enough freedom of movement for grabbing onto holds in rock when I'm climbing and for my reach while paddling a canoe. When I'm sweating it up during activities, the shirt breathes well, thanks to three venting eyelets in the material under each armpit.  

It's a great backpacking shirt, too, because it's super lightweight. After a long day of hiking I can wash it, and hang if from a handy loop located where a neck tag would be. It's quick drying, so I can wear it again and again.

Available in five colors: Sesame, Moab, Tidewater, Stone Green, and Cocobolo. Sizes SM-XXL.

Bottom Line: Mountain Hardwear has made an eco-friendly shirt that's great for working out or for running errands.-- C.H. (June 09)
