The World’s First Parkour Performance Tee

by Take Flight on Feb.16, 2010, under New Releases, Products

The original Take Flight Logo Tee was originally released in November 2008 as a 100% cotton tee. This tee has been one of our most popular shirts since that day. But even from its first release we started working to bring the shirt’s versatility to a new level. More than a year later we have finally reached the re-release of the shirt. Not only is the new Take Flight Logo Tee reinvented, it is now also the world’s first Parkour performance tee.

We are very pleased to introduce the world’s first Parkour performance tee to our line in the form of the Take Flight Logo Tee. After looking at graphic possibilities and color combos we decided to keep the shirt simple and known for what it is; a performance tee. We stuck with the traditional black, and manufactured a 85/15 polyester cotton performance fabric that simultaneously lets cool air in and pulls moisture away from the body. In addition to our blended performance material the shirt features the Take Flight logo as a front left chest print and the Take Flight Flight Man impressed on the back collar below the neck line. The shirt is for sale in our store for $19.95.

What has taken us more than a full year to accomplish, has been well worth the effort. We couldn’t be more excited for the reintroduction of our Take Flight Logo Tee to our Parkour clothing line. And the fact that the shirt is also the world’s first Parkour performance tee makes it all the more exciting for us and the Parkour community. One person who wore our blended performance tee called the garment “the most comfortable tee I have ever worn!” That is the exact type of response we work so hard for, and we plan to continually strive for this innovative and quality in all that we do.

In my experiences, Polyester/Cotton shirts get less and less comfortable as you use them. They have a deteriorating quality to them. That’s why the industry standard is 100% cotton.

Hi Dave!

Thanks for your input! Cotton is great for casual wear and general training, but if you want a softer fabric that performs it has to be a polyester blend or 100% polyester. Most of our tees are 100% cotton, but in creating this performance shirt we had to deviate and create a fabric that gives a little more than even our custom Take Flight tees.

Thanks again for your input!

That paragraph didn’t help at all. All you said was performance. Are you talking about durability? because they aren’t as comfortable, but they are more durable.
