I’ve been pretty happy with Zorrel shirts at the handful of events I’ve received them, a few WTC events and a half marathon in Florida. I like Zorrel as they seem to be a good quality shirt I can wear around as a t-shirt. I’d always rather have a good t-shirt for casual wear than a crappy technical shirt that seems to be the new normal at many races.
I am looking to get an order of shirts printed, but Zorrel has a huge variety of offerings. Does anybody know what shirt they use for WTC and other events? I’d think it’s their “standard” shirt that they use for high production runs, just wondering which of the ones at the link below it might be. My guess is it may be the Z100.

My guess is the Z880 Heavyweight Short Sleeve Tee
which they probably get a great deal on by ordering tens of thousands.
I order shirts for races and will not be going with A4 again as they’ve become prevalent as a cheap “technical” shirt. Would prefer a nicer cotton one like Zorrel though $10/shirt + printing etc can get a bit pricey too.
EDIT: Just looked at my shirts and the athlete one (from 2008) is the Z100 (https://www.zorrel.com/catalog/product.php?pid=1) - a great shirt. The volunteer shirts are cheaper – mine from 2009 appears to be the Z880 referenced earlier.
Ah, I didn’t see that one, thanks.
I have on A4 shirt from a marathon a couple years ago that I really like, but I have a few bad ones too.
I particularly hate the cheap technical tees that feel very plastic and scratchy.
