rabbit EZ Tee Short Sleeve

The rabbit EZ Tee Short Sleeve remains a favourite of our Running Warehouse Australia staff for its incredibly soft and buttery fabric that just makes your run more enjoyable. This shirt's moisture-wicking material won't cling to you as you work up a sweat (goodbye stickiness!), and its flatlock seams ensure you don't experience any harsh skin irritation (goodbye chafing!). For all-around comfort, keep it light, cute, and breezy as you go the distance in rabbit's EZ Tee.
