Running Shirts


Currently I run and work out in the Russell dri(y) something or other shirts. I've got bunch of the sleeveless and 2 or 3 long sleeve. They are OK, but I'm looking for something that wicks better in the hot Texas summer. These will saturate, especially when I'm doing something for a few hours like playing tennis, or am loose-lipped while drinking!

I love the feel and comfort of the Brooks stuff I have (long sleeve base layers, briefs, etc.), but haven't seen or tried on any of their shirts. Do they (or anyone else) have comfortable shirts -- sleeveless -- that perform well and are comfortable? Other brands you like? I've worn some Under Armour stuff and while I like it, some have irritating seems that go across the back or shoulders, which I want to avoid if possible.

Re: Running Shirts
I personally really like the Nike DriFit and SphereDri(I think thats what they're called) shirts. I have a short sleeve SphereDri and I love wearing it. Its very comfortable and works very well.
