Beyond Tech Tee Vented
Shredly
The Shredly Beyond Tech Tee Vented is designed to deliver trail-ready technical performance with an emphasis on inclusive sizing and comfort. Shredly constructed this jersey with an ultra-soft, recycled poly-spandex blend on the front and paired it with a perforated mesh back panel. This split construction ensures front-facing protection from trail spray and wind while providing constant evaporative cooling along the spine where hydration packs create heat buildup. What sets Shredly apart in the mountain bike space is their intentional patterning across an extensive size run, ensuring that riders across all body shapes get a functional, non-restrictive fit. The Beyond Tech Tee drapes comfortably without clinging or bunching under pack straps. The vented back actively pulls air across the torso, and the four-way stretch fabric moves effortlessly during steep climbs and descents. As with many high-ventilation jerseys, the perforated back panel is thinner than the front body, making it somewhat more vulnerable to wear if used with rough, abrasive hydration pack backings over several seasons. The styling also features vibrant patterns that may not appeal to riders seeking a subdued, muted palette. Functionally, it stands as one of the best ventilated and most accommodating trail tees on the market. **Highlights** * Perforated mesh back panel for maximum pack ventilation * Inclusive size range catering to diverse body shapes * Four-way stretch recycled polyester and spandex blend * Soft next-to-skin feel with non-chafing seams * Generous cut that eliminates torso clinging **Watch-outs** * Vented back mesh requires care around rough pack materials * Bold aesthetic prints may not suit minimalists

& San All Day Shirt
Ocean
The Ocean & San All Day Shirt takes a unique approach to mountain bike apparel by bridging the gap between casual lifestyle tees and pocket-heavy cycling jerseys. Cut from a heavyweight, super-soft blend of Tencel and recycled polyester, it looks and drapes like a premium casual shirt. However, across the lower back, Ocean & San integrated a reinforced three-pocket system—similar to a road cycling jersey, but engineered with a casual drape that prevents excessive sagging. On the trail, the All Day Shirt is ideal for riders who despise hip packs and hydration vests for quick one- to two-hour rides. The pockets securely carry a phone, windbreaker, and snack without flopping erratically while pedaling. The Tencel blend provides a remarkably soft feel against bare skin, natural thermoregulation, and moderate odor resistance, while the polyester component ensures the garment retains its shape after repeated wash cycles. Because the fabric is thicker and features a casual t-shirt weight, it does not dry as rapidly as paper-thin synthetic mesh jerseys when drenched with heavy sweat. In high-heat, high-humidity environments, it can hold onto moisture longer than dedicated race kit. Furthermore, if you overload the rear pockets with heavy multi-tools or full water bottles, the shirt will pull backward against your neck. Used within its limits, it is an exceptionally versatile trail top. **Highlights** * Three integrated lower-back stash pockets * Soft, durable Tencel and recycled polyester blend * Casual aesthetic that works anywhere off the bike * Eliminates the need for a hip pack on short trail rides * Naturally odor-resistant and comfortable next to skin **Watch-outs** * Dries slower than ultra-light pure synthetics in high heat * Overloading rear pockets can cause the collar to pull back
