With A Twist Dante Top: A Graphic Tee for Grownups

I've been so busy testing merino wool and performance fabrics that I almost forgot about graphic tees! I just discovered With a Twist's Dante Top, a fun, sleek, alpine-inspired long-sleeved tee that's become a favorite.

Made out of an ultra thin, soft 55% silk/ 45% cotton blend, this slim-styled top feels luxurious against my skin. The silk gives the top some stretch (and strength) and adds warmth and breathability, which are all essential for an active gal like me. I also prefer wearing natural fibers than wearing a cotton/lycra blend. The Dante Top has give and holds its shape better.

I like the fun designs, especially the racing stripe that runs down the front of the shirt, and contrast stitching. The slightly scooped neckline makes this sporty top a bit more girly. Of course, the Dante Top looks great with jeans.

Other details makes this top one of my favorites: flat seams that don't chafe and the torso and sleeves are actually long enough for me. (At 6', I have a hard time finding shirts.)

Available in three colors: blue/black, grey/orange, and green/grey, in sizes S-XL. This is a slim top. I'm normally a size L in women's tops, but found the best fit in a size XL. If you're between sizes or busty, you might want to size up.

Bottom Line: I like that this top feels like an old, broken-in tee but looks fresh and new even after weeks of wear.-E.D., Dec. '10
