Water resistant t-shirt? - Snowboarding Forum

eastoakland · 03-03-2011, 08:54 PM

I tend to board without a jacket a lot especially here on the westcoast where it is typically mild during the days. The bottom of my shirt usually gets wet/frozen or gets a nice build up of ice. Is there any t-shirt or long sleeve shirt that water resistant? I'm assuming water proof would be really shitty to wear against my skin.

I knew the quit falling response was coming. I'm not falling, not well that much. It's one in a while when something unexpected happens and I have to put a hand down. The shirt ends up catching spray. Softshells look lame.

Grab a shirt and wash and spray it in Nikwax?

I have the Burton Tech Polo and Burton Tech long sleeve tee, they are both great for warmer days and I have not had any problems with them getting wet.

volcom has a flannel looking shirt that looks like it would repel water pretty decently. I think its called the "western shirt"
