how is odor an issue for you?
Odor isn't much of a problem for me. The only times I think about it are at the gym.
do you have any funny odor stories from your past?
Once I was sitting outside on the balcony porch, enjoying some beautiful sun and gentle breezes. I noticed a stinky smell and figured that sometimes, nature doesn't smell that nice and waited for the smell to dissipate. But the smell lingered and after a while, I realized the smell was coming from my flip flops. I had worn them to the gym's swimming pool and then they had sat in a plastic bag in my gym bag for a week. The smell was so rank that I left the shoes outside to air out for a month before I dared bring it back into the house!
how did you test the shirt?
To test the shirt, I wore it for every one of my daily runs for four weeks. Runs ranged from 1 to 9 miles long (about 10 minutes to 1.5 hours at a time). Whenever I wasn't exercising, I hung it up (away from my other clothes) so it could dry out and air out a bit. I also wore it when I went indoor rock climbing.
how did the shirt perform?
After the first two days, I couldn't detect any smell on either side. I figured this Stink At Nothing campaign was just a clever marketing scheme. But then, after two weeks, one side did smell worse than the other. And after four weeks, the shirt definitely stinks -- but less so on one side. I ran a total of 75 miles in that shirt in temperatures from the low 40s F to the high 80s.
