I have to say, I used to scoff at the idea of spending more than 30 euros for a T-shirt, so the real question becomes, is this 78 euro t-shirt really worth it?
So let’s start going through what I enjoy of this T-shirt.
It’s among the lightest T-shirts I have ever owned, weighing in at around 100 grams!
That’s practically the same weight as a cup of noodles, #FavouriteMeal.
It’s eco-friendly, made from +50% recycled synthetic fibers along with their trademarked equaliser material. * They haven’t shared this recipe with me!
The main feature that I love about this T-shirt is its breathability, which makes it ideal for activities where you would break a sweat, be it climbing, running, skiing, or mountain biking.
When you are out hiking, you stop for your lunch on a sunny day, you wash your Fjørå T-shirt in a stream, hang it on your backpack and you grab a new one from your pack. Within 2 hours the first T-shirt is already dry and ready for use.

What are the cons?
Cost, running at around 70+ euros without discounts makes it a quite pricey affair for a T-shirt.
Base layer, during colder days of the year when you usually wear a base layer. This T-shirt acts as a semi-base layer itself, but it also hugs the body.
Making it difficult to find base layer’s that fit with the T-shirt.
Color selection, at any given time there are around 9 different colors over on the Fjørå equaliser and Falketind equaliser.
Yet there is no full black or full white of the T-shirt or any single color options.
It’s a small gripe and truly a first-world problem that I might be able to survive.
