Description of Marmot Cascade Shirt - Short-Sleeve - Women's:
Your wine glass is half-full, your box of unpaid bills is half-empty, and the Marmot Women's Cascade Short-Sleeve Shirt is half recycled-polyester. But this quick-drying, wicking tee doesn't spend much time at the table or the desk. Pull on the Cascade T-Shirt and hop on the trail for long hike, or head to your favorite crag for some bouldering. Marmot's mix of UpCycle Recycled yarn and polyester fabric has a UPF 45 sun protection rating that blocks harmful sun rays and helps keep you cool.
Bottom Line: Half-recycled, fully wicking and quick-drying.
I wear an extra large for almost all brands of women's clothing, but apparently not for Marmot. This extra large was more like a snug large, particularly across the chest and upper arms. While I can wear a men's large to accommodate my larger than average chest, shoulders, and upper arms, the short sleeves hang to my elbows and almost all are crew necks, and I prefer v-necks or jewel necks. Recommend ordering at least one size larger than normal.
the seam on the inside of the shirt was a little stiff/rough, and made the shirt uncomfortable and itchy for me. i was really disappointed, because the rest of the shirt felt and looked great, i just couldnt have dealt with the inside rubbing me the way it did.
