Your pup named Chief loves to wander in the woods almost more than you, so on sunny Saturdays, slip on The North Face Ruckus VaporWick Crew and go where you can act like animals. You may be civilized, but every animal needs to be wild once in a while, especially Chief. As you both run with reckless abandon through the brush, the Ruckus will feel as soft as cotton and its VaporWick fabric will rid itself of sweat. When you reach the creek, the UPF 30 sun protection will prevent wicked sunburn when your short break turns into an hour long nap.

Bottom Line: Oh crap. Where’s Chief?

Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

I went hiking the other day and my buddy was wearing this shirt. When we go to the top we laid out in the sun for a while as we were hot and tired. When it came time to go he grabbed his shirt which was dry and was stuck putting on my still damp sweat filled cotton t-shirt.
This experience alone gave me envy and I decided it was worth getting one of these shirts of activities such as these.

Perfect everyday summer shirt

By:
August 1, 2010

I bought this shirt for my husband and he loves it! We finally had to buy it in a few colors because it's his favorite one. It's really soft and feels like cotton but is super breathable and keeps him pretty dry when it's hot. We measured him before we ordered the shirt and it fits true to size. He has pretty broad shoulders and it still fit perfectly.

The North Face clothing is comparable to Under Armour in many areas. However, I have always prefered my T.N.F. gear for durability in the outdoors over U.A.

great shirt

By:

love this shirt. very comfortable in warm temps. I bought a large, which I usually buy for regular cotton t's, but it still fits a little baggy because it doesn't shrink in the wash.

I want another one

By:
March 26, 2011

I was gifted this shirt of Christmas and wore it all last summer. It very breathable and keeps me dry while I am backpacking in the heat. I have used it as a towel in a pinch and it dries super-fast. Picture is at the look out on Cliff Lake in the Jewel Basin. It was 93F in the shade with a light southwest breeze and i was feeling great.

Worth the money

By:
July 10, 2011

Just came back from an adventure in Montenegro where I had plenty opportunities to test this T-shirt. It did its job, worked fine, always kept my back under backpack dry. At this price level, definitely worth the money. In case you're looking for a tighter fit, get a size smaller that usually.

I love the VaporWick Ruckus T-shirts...this is my 3rd color. Great for biking, hiking, or just chillin' at the crib. Plus, my lady loves how soft they feel against her.

I've been wearing a couple of these shirts, at least one or the other every week this summer. They are comfortable and are wearing well.

I put this shirt on and knew what ice cream must feel like when the whipped cream and cherry are added. Cool, comfy and stylin... durability TBD.

Great everyday t-shirt

By:
April 21, 2011

I love these shirts. Light weight, quick dry, and sturdy. I have noticed that they do tend to pill-up a bit after a (long) while of use and washing. I have been letting my new shirts air dry instead of using the dryer. I'm hoping the shirts will hold up even longer!

Just a side note: These are my everyday shirts as well as my camping gear... I simply love these shirts.

The Perfect shirt?

By:
April 6, 2011

The Ruckus might be the perfect shirt. Very comfortable and functional. Went on the first run of the year today wore the Rucks under an EMS fleece and was warm and dry all run. Definitely going to buy a few more of these!

Always Comfortable!

By:
May 24, 2010

The Ruckus VaporWick is always comfortable with any movement. I have slightly wider shoulders than most shirts allow movement for, this is not the case with the Ruckus regardless of hiking around through trees pushing branches aside or working out with weight machines this shirt always fits great!

Wear Everywhere Shirt

The North Face Ruckus VaporWick is my favorite, hands down. I do strenuous workouts, work on a hot tarmack directing airtankers, parachute into wildfires, and enjoy recreational activities with smokejumper buddies--all wearing my VaporWick Ruckus shirts. I cannot seem to buy enough of these. They are more generously perportioned through the lower torso than some performance shirts, so I can move easily during all the different activites that occupy my day. The sun protection is a plus in my line of work, as is the wicking power. I will buy this shirt as long as The North Face continues to make the best, basic performance shirt you can buy today.

Good T shirt

By:
April 29, 2010

I Like these t shirts as they are very confortable as far as moisture management, but basically feel like a heavy cotton t shirt otherwise.

heavy material is good and holds up well, after awhile they seem to pile up some but not really a problem

Love these... stocking up

By:
March 21, 2010

I had a few of the older incarnation of this shirt. I hope the new ones don't get "pilly" as fast. Nonetheless, a durable shirt, performance fabric that looks like and has the weight of a regular T-shirt. Get some!
