This T-Shirt Is Built for Explorers

Packing for a trip or expedition takes a rare set of skills. Well, at least it used to. BUMI, a smart apparel startup based in LA, crafts technical clothing that’s designed for easy transport. What does that mean? Well, take a look at their first item, the Base Layer t-shirt. Not only is it antimicrobial, built with advanced moisture management, and made in the USA, but it boasts a high compression stow-away system so it takes up little space in a suitcase or backpack. And when you do unpack it and toss it on, you’ll appreciate all the fine touches—offset shoulder seams for greater comfort, underarm gussets for increased mobility, and flatlock seams that do away with chafing. The Base Layer was even tested all over the world to make sure it stood up to the demands of the modern-day adventurer. If you want one to toss in your bag, we’d act now, as only 100 are being made.
