Rab says:
Our Mello SS Shirt is a lightweight, multi-purpose short-sleeved shirt for hot weather hikes and summer at the rockface. Built from soft, lightweight stretch polyester, with sleeves cut for active movement, its easy everyday style belies its technical capabilities. In addition to its active fit and fabric, the chest pocket comes with a YKK zip for secure storage and the lower central button is concealed beneath a placket to avoid clashing with your hip belt or climbing harness.
Our Verdict
Rab's Mello SS Shirt is ideal if you're after a really lightweight, quick drying shirt for your next adventure. This is functional, comfortable and of course looks good too. It has an active cut and is designed for use in the outdoors rather than simply a casual shirt for people who do those activities regardless. The covered buttons on the bottom have stop them getting caught on a harness or hip belt which is a clever touch.
Made from synthetic materials it has a soft, comfortable feel. It is a packable and functional fabric that helps to wick moisture away from your body. It also features a good sized chest pocket for handy storage.
