the treadmill or just keep lifting weights, the
Stedman Active Sports Top is a perfect match,”
says the brand. The men’s Active Sports Top
(ST8010) and women’s style (ST8110) are
made from a tight-knit interlock fabric for great
moisture control. The Active-Dry polyester is
soft and durable (as well as very elastic, says
Stedman), and its smooth surface is ideal for
printing. “With a fitted cut and strong colours,
it combines all the functional features you’d
expect from good sportswear – keep looking
good while working out,” adds the brand.
