Appalachian Gear Company, the U.S. manufacturer of outdoor apparel and equipment performance gear, released its AG-Tee made with a blend of 80 percent Alpaca and 20 percent Tencel for use in varying climates and environments.
Combining the quick-dry, breathable and thermoregulating qualities of Alpaca with the softness and durability of Tencel, the technical fabric tee delivers on performance without using petroleum-based synthetics.
Ideal for outdoor activities, including thru-hiking, backpacking, trail running, and climbing, the AG-Tee provides insulation and cooling when needed, natural stretch and recovery without the use of synthetic elastics and odor control without the use of chemical products.
“Our AG-Tee is the first lightweight tech tee of its kind to utilize this precise blend of Alpaca fibers and Tencel,” said Appalachian Gear Company co-founder John Gage. “At Appalachian Gear Company, we’ve always known that you can make high-performance apparel from 100 percent natural fibers, and it will stand up to any outdoor pursuit better than synthetics. This Tee is a truly sustainable option for anyone looking for a durable, lightweight, quick-drying, and comfortable shirt to wear for most activities.”
The AG-Tee is available in men’s and women’s sizing.
