TCA Men's Fusion Pro Quickdry Long Sleeve Half Zip Running Shirt – Athletic Workout Pullover with Pocket & Thumb Holes

Soft and comfortable
I like sleeves long and these are. There are thumb holes so the sleeves can come down over the palm and the sleeves are long enough to do that without stretching the material. The material is very soft feeling. I will likely order at least one more.

Great comfort, conformity, price...
I was reluctant to purchase this based on the photo amazon.com...but I did. It arrived in 2 days. WOW! It is very comfortable, soft material. Now, it is NOT a item to be worn OVER a base later, but exact opposite. It is light weight and you would need a heavier, warmer active jacket to wear over this. Great fit, looks nice. Very fair for the price. The 8", or so zipper collar looks sturdy...but I will soon find out.

Snug, but ideal for long runs on cold mornings
With the colder weather coming in I wanted a pull over that would help keep me warm without being too warm after the first mile of the run was done. I've worn it on several early morning runs now. I'll start with the downside first... it's snug. I'm a retired powerlifter coverting to running. I'm 5'9, 210 lbs, so I ordered the XL size. It's not so snug to be uncomfortable, but I wish it was a tad more forgiving. That being said, I still really like this pullover and will continue to wear it, and probably will order other color combos. I've taken it out on some mornings that were in the 30's. Not too cold but cold enough I don't want to start in just a tshirt and shorts. The shirt is enough to keep you warm without overdoing it. There are two things I really like about it --1) The shirt does a great job of wicking away sweat.2) The shirt is has longer sleeves. Early in the run I can pull the sleeves over my hands to help keep them warm, but as I run farther and get warmer I let them come up and use the thumb holes to keep them in place, not that I think the sleeves would go anywhere even if I didn't use the thumb holes.For the price this is a great shirt to buy for cooler morning runs, or any other early morning outdoor activities. Like I mentioned, it is snug around the chest/abs for bigger guys, but not so much as to be uncomfortable, but more snug than I'd personally like. But the positives outweigh the negatives. Don't hesitate to give this pullover a try.12/15/21 Update -- I had a couple of mornings where it was in the teens for temps when I started my run. Layering this pullover with another long sleeved dry wick shirt I recv'd for running a half marathon made the run perfectly comfortable. I'm still really pleased that despite how thin the pullover actually is the warmth it provides is more than adequate.

Like the shirt, not the pocket.
I bought this shirt because of the pocket. I am keeping it because of the fabric. My 3” wide phone just fits through the opening. Perhaps I am just not used to it, but the phone feels weird in the pocket location. The pocket on a previous shirt was lower and vertical and I barely felt the phone. I am keeping it because I like the feel and the fabric. Maybe I will get used to the pocket location.

Very tight fit.
Seems like a nice shirt, but I really couldn't wear it. I'm 5' 11" 165lbs, but medium was way too tight fitting. Length was good so maybe ok for runners who want really skin tight. Also, I've noticed size can be inconsistent on clothes here. fyi Be aware of the extra long sleeves. I missed that in the obvious photo, so that one's on me!

Some corner cutting here that does not justify the price tag.
At first glance the look, stitching, and fit of this pullover met my expectations. However it is not at all lightweight. Even without a liner this is a thicker pullover and questionable as anything other than a cold weather running shirt. The major design flaw tactically hidden from the images of this shirt revolves around the upper chest pocket. Its lining is just slapped onto the inside of the shirt in a way that if you do anything less than 80% zip up the shirt the stitched inside of the pocket shows out the top and rests near your neck. Super cheap way of sewing that in. SEE PIC ABOVE. Zipped up it looks good.So if you plan on running with the collar completely zipped up all of the time that may not be an issue for you, but for those of us that usually run with the zip down, this could be a deal breaker. Although cosmetic, for 30 bucks its an oversight that makes this one hard to recommend when you can find similar products without such.Having tried a multitude of these from a variety of brands, I can tell you that this is most comparable to like a store brand knock off like DSG (dicks sporting goods active-wear).Back to the weight: Mild weather , brisk spring and summer mornings and evening runs, it definitely feels like I would not reach for this as i would absolutely be too warm. I will update after a night run if i keep it, however I'm leaning on a return.

Tasteful and perfect for working out
The media could not be loaded. I was looking for a lightweight fleece to wear for workouts and runs during the winter months and this fleece is perfect. Having now used the fleece I have realised it is perfect for both summer and winter. Its thin material can be cooling when wearing it as just a top but also very insulating when wearing it as a fleece (second layer). Once again, the quick drying material is very good and feels like what is very high quality. Although the fleece is gym wear, due to its tasteful style it is something I would wear on a casual basis. Much like other TCA products I have purchased, the zips are the usual brilliant quality and the fleece contains a pocket on the upper half for your phone. I would highly recommend this product for its comfort and extremely lightweight material.I am 5'8, waist 28 (UK) and fairly broad shoulders, The small mens size fits perfectly.

Perfect for over 50 cyclists
I actually use this for cycling, not running. People over the age of 50 should not wear pukka cycling gear, period. These tops are both stylish and comfortable and you can once again enjoy cycling without people staring at parts of you straining to break free from ridiculously tight cycling gear that is invariably three sizes smaller than advertised.These tops are a reasonable length, really comfortable and are surprisingly warm without feeling like you're in a sauna. Add the extremely low price to next day prime delivery and you've got the perfect shopping experience. A+++++

TCA Running Top Review
While not the most comfortable running top I do like TCA's longer sleeved running top. While the zipped pocket is just about big enough to fit my iPhone 6 I use it as a handy place to store my key.I like that the sleeves have thumb holes as this tightens the sleeves and provide that little extra warmth on cold days. These are quick dry and they do just that. They also don't feel too sweaty when running which is also a bonus and I don't feel them getting heavier or cling to my skin. What I would have liked though is for them to be a little tighter around the body. Most medium running tops or sports tops I own are tighter and I like that but this is just personal preference.Since buying this top I have looked into other TCA sports wear. Which to me is a good sign that I like the brand.

Bad fit - But perfect if you are an Orangutan!
I bought a medium size because that is what I am. The shirt is loose on me.But on what planet are the manufacturers on, making with sleeves 4 inches too long?I know it is so you can pull them over your hands to keep the warm but...........I am not an orangutan!On a positive, note the material is very soft and comfortable and very stretchy and accommodating, so most would be well advised to buy a smaller size than they are.Not quit warm enough in a cold wind and too hot when running in the Autumn early morning sun.I wished I had ordered a Small and can't be bothered to wait days to get it swapped over, it is needed now!

Excellent comfortable warm base layer
I wanted something for running while the morning are still chilly. This shirt fits well, is warm and comfortable. I am on the heavy side and I don’t have anywhere near a six pack. The other shirts I tried were too tight. I am really pleased with the fit of this one. It’s a bit of a challenge getting off when you are sweating but that’s not the shirt’s fault. I can’t speak to longevity yet but the quality for the price seems excellent. I will buy a second one and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a great running shirt.
