When choosing a USC shirt, consider what you will be doing most often when you are wearing it. For a shirt to wear on campus or around Los Angeles, a soft cotton tee is a classic choice. A t-shirt or long sleeve shirt with your team's logo or wordmark screen-printed on the front never goes out of style.
When you're working out, a performance top will keep you cool and is designed to provide nonrestrictive movement. Performance shirts are often lightweight polyester or polyester blend fabrics and can incorporate moisture-wicking technologies, so you can stay dry during intense conditions.
DICK's Sporting Goods carries USC tops in short sleeve, long sleeve and polo styles, with a variety of fits. The standard fit shirt offers a classic shape that allows room for you to move without being too loose, making it great for everyday wear. A shirt with an athletic fit hugs tighter against the body. This snug shirt functions great as a base layer, or it can be worn alone when you want your top to stay in place and not ride up. Combine either fit with a rounded crew neck, the neckline of choice for Trojans fans seeking ultimate comfort.
Shirts with quick-dry performance fabrics draw moisture away from the skin to the surface of the shirt where it evaporates, so you feel cool during your workout and those hot USC games. Look for shirts that incorporate technologies like Nike's® Dri-FIT®, adidas's® CLIMALITE® and Under Armour's® HeatGear®. Additional performance features include CLIMACOOL® technology from adidas® and Charged Cotton® from Under Armour®. CLIMACOOL® combines a lightweight fabrication and a ventilated construction to keep you cool. Charged Cotton® gives you the soft feel of cotton with fast drying times you expect from polyester shirts.
