| Material | Soft performance blend (cotton/modal or poly blend), ~4.5oz, breathable jersey. | Smooth supima cotton in a fine, soft knit that resists pilling and holds color. |
| Fit | Relaxed casual cut with easy movement; true to size, slightly roomy. | A traditional, slightly trim cut with a neat crew or v-neck that suits layering. |

Which should you buy?
No price gap, so pick by wardrobe role. The Outdoor Voices is for movement and casual everyday, where breathability and stretch matter more than longevity.
