Designed with exposed conditions in mind
Rab says:
Ideal for covering up and keeping cool in hot, sunny weather, this breathable, technical tee is built with UV-protective Dryflo™ Solar fabric to shield you from harmful rays. With a wearable, casual fit, it's a versatile tee for active mountain use.
When the sun’s beating down and temperatures are soaring, this technical tee is designed to keep you cool, sweat-free, and protected. It’s built with a lightweight, breathable Dryflo™ Solar fabric that wicks quickly and stays comfortable, whether worn as a base or standalone layer. It also offers UPF 40+ sun protection, ideal for exposed trails or climbs with little shade. Finished with an odour control treatment, it’s perfect for multi-day adventures, packing down small and still useable on day two. With a wearable, casual fit, it's a staple tee that every mountain person needs on their kit list.
Our Verdict
The Force SS Tee feels more substantial than many lightweight technical tops, trading airflow for better coverage and a more reassuring feel under a pack. The Dryflo Solar fabric handles sweat well, dries quickly enough for warm-weather hiking, and provides proper UPF 40+ protection for exposed trails and long, sunny days.
I also like the regular fit and clean seam placement, both of which help it work well as an everyday walking layer rather than a race-focused tee. For trekking and hillwalking in hotter conditions, it feels very practical.
