Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
I put this thing to the test, running 2-4 miles a day in it for about 2 weeks. It has served me well overall. It's not too abrasive, but it could be a bit smoother.
The fabric is woven a bit loose, but for the price, that's to be expected. I just wish it didn't retain odor so much!
But overall, I'm happy with my purchase. This is WAY better than cotton.

I have used it biking and it makes a huge difference from cotton. Fit is good and seems very sturdy. Can't beat it for the price.

If every shirt fit like this one, I would be a happy man. I generally run between a medium and large in shirt size. With the relaxed fit of this shirt, the medium fits me perfect and is not too long -- as some size large shirts are for me (I'm 5-9).
This is a great, lightweight, breathable shirt that I got at a great price. Perfect for mountain biking or hiking in the summer.

I use it for everyday tasks but especially underneath my leather jacket when riding motorcycle. It helps to keep me cool in the heat of the summer and also dries quickly and seems somewhat stain resistant.

I use this shirt mainly for bike rides and the gym. It's slightly loose-fitting, which makes it perfect for all-around activities, but too baggy for yoga, (which is fine, as it's not marketed as yoga wear.)
Love this shirt!

Much better than the usual cotton t-shirts for casual wear. Work well for sweating in the heat biking or as an under-layer when sailing on the Bay

This is a great shirt, especially for the price. It is as good as many shirts twice the price. I am very comfortable when I wear it for working out, or any type of exercise. The fit and finish are exceptional.

I bought this for my boyfriend, who is leery of high-techy things, and he loved it. He liked the fit and how well it wicked during a vigorous workout, without looking like he was a gear nut. I think he's been converted from cotton forever more! (and it sure looks better than a holey grey t-shirt).
