Saucony Elite Short Sleeve
From a composition point of view, the Elite from Saucony takes a ‘keep it simple’ approach but with a few notes of designer-added flair.
This top has been constructed from one type of Polyester fabric across several panels in two colours to produce a pleasant contrast.
The fabric is fairly standard without any real bells and whistles, thus providing standard levels of moisture management and comfort, which is acceptable given the low price point.
The front of the shirt is fuss free, which is a major plus point with so many manufacturers adding unnecessary detail that inevitably results in the dreaded cherry nipple. Unfortunately, this can’t be said for the rear of the shirt.
The snaking white panel that nips in over the shoulder blades does cause some irritation that becomes worse as sweat builds up. This is a shame and a point that could so easily be amended.
