Women’s Running Shirts
Fractel's womens running tops are cut for steady kilometres, warm sessions and everyday training, with room to move through the shoulders.
Light fabric, room to move
Subtle stretch keeps the fit steady through arm swing, and wider arm openings stop any catching when the pace lifts. Fabric stays light without losing its shape, whether you're after a relaxed cut or something closer to the body.
REPREVE fabric, shaped through the shoulders
REPREVE recycled polyester runs through most of these womens running tops, holding its shape through repeat training blocks. The wider arm openings are a deliberate fit choice, not a generic resize. They're cut specifically so a full arm swing doesn't catch or pull.
From easy days to race pace
The same top covers an easy training run and a harder race-pace session without changing shape or fit. Size down to a singlet on hot days, or add a long sleeve once the mornings turn cold.
Pair it with our headwear range and running socks for a complete kit, or size down to a singlet for warmer runs.
FAQs
Are Fractel womens running tops made from recycled or sustainable materials?
Yes. Fractel women’s tees use recycled performance fabrics like Coolcore® Breeze™ mesh and Coolcore® Tyndall™ jersey, which incorporate recycled polyester fibres. These technical fabrics are engineered to be moisture-wicking and thermoregulating while helping reduce environmental impact.
Will womens running tops keep me cool on hot runs?
Definitely. The women’s range is built with cooling fabrics that wick sweat fast and help regulate temperature, using chemical-free thermoregulating yarns and open-knit or lightweight constructions. Many styles also include laser-cut ventilation panels and a relaxed performance silhouette so air can flow freely on hot or high-intensity sessions.
Do Fractel womens running tops offer sun protection?
Yes. Several women’s tees are made with UPF-rated or UV+ protective fabrics designed for long days in the sun. Look for styles featuring UV+ or UPF 50+ protection in the product description - these are great for midday runs, summer training blocks or race days with minimal shade.
How should I choose my size in the women’s tees?
Fractel women’s tees are tailored for the female form with a relaxed performance fit and four-way stretch. If you prefer a closer, more fitted look, Fractel recommends sizing down; if you like extra room for layering or airflow, choose your regular size. Each shirt also has a detailed chest and length size chart to help you dial in the right fit.
Why do some womens running tops have a longer or dropped back hem?
It's for coverage when you bend forward at the waist, plus a small venting effect that helps air move through as you run. It's a deliberate cut choice, not just a style detail.
