When is a stylish T-shirt so much more than just a T-shirt? When it’s made with plenty of functionality, comfort and performance and mind. And so it goes with Ibex, makers of some of the best merino wool menswear on the market — that goes for comfortable-as-can-be jogger pants, breezy quarter-zip sweaters and one of the best merino wool T-shirts out there.

What is merino wool, and why is it worth adding to your casual wardrobe? Merino wool, hailing from Merino sheep, is one of the most impressive fibers on the planet, in my opinion — it’s naturally temperature-regulating, it wicks away sweat and moisture, it retains its form over time and it’s also anti-microbial and anti-odor. Impressive, yes?

Make no mistake though, this merino T-shirt for men isn’t quite a typical workout T-shirt. It’s ideal for hiking, training and day trips, of course, but in my opinion, Ibex makes menswear that’s as stylish as it is functional — you can feel great about wearing this men’s performance T-shirt far beyond the confines of the gym, mark my words.

And that means that the Ibex 24-Hour Short-Sleeve Crew is, in my experience, also one of the best T-shirts to wear for travel — all of those qualities make it ideal for quick coastal jaunts or flights across the ocean. In fact, I’ve worn the Ibex 24-Hour Short-Sleeve Crew to do all of that, and then some, without missing a beat.

Oh, and better still is the fact that your new favorite T-shirt is now 30 percent off at Ibex. I’ve found the fit to be tailored and flattering without being overly tight, making it ideal to wear on its own or as a travel-ready base layer beneath a field jacket or lightweight buttondown shirt.

When you consider the fact that the Ibex 24-Hour Short-Sleeve Crew comes in seven standard colors (with additional colors available), the deal gets even better. One of the best T-shirts for men, with enough variety
