Brooks Dash Short Sleeve Printed

This is a fantastic hot-weather running shirt. The fabric is extremely lightweight with lots of perforations, so it breathes incredibly well and wicks sweat away better than running shirtless. I've used it for track sessions, speed work, and treadmill runs in the gym, and it excels at all of them. For up-tempo, faster-paced runs in hot and humid conditions, it's ideal. The fit is really good. I have a 41½-inch chest and the medium fits me perfectly. The print quality has held up great through all my washes, no fading or degradation at all. My only real con is that the pattern is a little mundane. I prefer something flashier or brighter, like a neon green, bright yellow, or cyan, something that pops and helps with visibility when I'm out running near cars and cyclists. I also wish it had a bit more reflectivity for night runs. It does show up under light, but more reflective elements would be nice, as long as they don't disrupt the breathability. That said, I run with a headlight and other lighting sources, so it's not a dealbreaker by any means. I was also surprised that the Brooks logo is so subtle. You wouldn't know it's a Brooks shirt unless you inspected it up close. That doesn't bother me personally, but it's worth noting. One thing to keep in mind: this shirt is a little too breathable for cold-weather runs at an easy pace. During colder months, I reach for something with a bit more weight and warmth. But for hot, humid summer conditions, this is a great, great shirt.

The Brooks Dash Short Sleeve Printed is amazing, period. The fabric feels great against my skin and doesn't stick, even when I'm sweating. It dries very quickly so it never feels gross while you're wearing it. I've used it for different types of workouts, from running to yoga, and it performs well across all of them. It fits true to size and I've had no issues. This shirt is built to last. I've had it for quite some time, wearing it at least once a week, and it's really held up after washing. The color hasn't faded at all.
