V1 NaturalFlex Compression Shirt
The answer · V1 NaturalFlex

Natural by choice. Enhanced by design.

Natural-fibre comfort with the fit and construction for running, lifting and contact training. V1 brings both jobs into the same shirt.

  • 92% bamboo and organic cotton combined. Zero polyester.

    Bamboo viscose and organic cotton form the base. The 8% elastane adds stretch and helps the fabric return towards its shape.

  • Reinforced for training. Comfortable beyond it.

    Reinforced sport stitching and a silicone gripper hem, built for gym sessions, runs and contact training. Natural-fibre comfort carries through to everyday wear.

  • Breathes through training. Releases odour in the wash.

    A breathable natural-fibre blend against your skin during a sweaty session. After training, washing releases odour instead of leaving it embedded in the fabric.

  • Fitted, with stretch built in.

    V1 sits close to your body. The elastane lets the fabric stretch as you reach, lift and move, while the gripper hem helps keep the shirt in place.

Your usual training options

Four problems hiding in
your training shirts.

A polyester shirt for the workout. A regular cotton tee for afterwards. Try taking either through your whole day, training included, and the compromises become familiar.

Polyester training shirt and regular cotton tee shown side by side: train in this, change into this

Your polyester training shirt

Built for the workout. Still a synthetic fabric.

  1. It holds onto the smell.

    Fresh out of the wash, but that old sweat smell is still there. Polyester can retain odour after washing.

  2. And it's plastic.

    Polyester is PET, the same polymer used in drink bottles. It can shed microplastics. A training label doesn't change the material.

Your regular cotton tee

Natural fibre. An everyday shirt, taken to training.

  1. Sweat in it. It can feel clammy.

    That regular cotton tee can feel wet and sticky against your skin once you're sweating. Natural fibre alone isn't the whole answer.

  2. Move in it. It bunches up.

    A loose everyday cut can gather around your body as you train. It wasn't cut to hug your arms or stay close as you move.

V1 combines bamboo viscose, organic cotton and elastane in a close-fitting training shirt. Comfort, breathability and a fit made to move, together.

The build / How it fits and holds up

Natural fibre sounds fragile.
This is built for training.

V1 has the close fit and toughness of a polyester training shirt. Customers have taken it through grappling sessions. Below, see it in action and hear how it held up.

  1. Hugs your arms. Moves when you do.

    The close cut shows your shape. Elastane lets the fabric stretch as you reach and lift, then helps it return to shape.

  2. A hem that helps stay down.

    The silicone gripper helps keep the shirt in place. Less stopping to pull it back down.

  3. Reinforced for the hard sessions.

    Reinforced sport stitching and substantial 270gsm fabric. Construction made for the demands of contact training, in the shirt you run and lift in.

Customer photo review of V1 Bamboo + Cotton Rashguard - Short Sleeve

I’ve been training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for over 10 years, and as a clinical naturopath, I’ve never been particularly keen on wearing synthetic-material rash guards. I’m so glad I found Natural Selection Fightwear! I’ve used mine three times so far and it’s been great. I’m a heavy sweater, and it has held up really well throughout training while remaining comfortable. Great quality and a brand I’m happy to support!

V1 Bamboo + Cotton Rashguard - Short Sleeve

Customer photo review of Bamboo Cotton Short Sleeve Rashguard

When I saw that this was natural fibres it instantly grabbed my attention and as a female athlete the fit is also amazing. I got the second smallest size and that fit me perfectly. The material is beautiful on the skin and dries quickly after a hard session.

Bamboo Cotton Short Sleeve Rashguard

These shirts are amazing! I had bought them as a gift for someone who does Jujitsu and the feedback has been great. The fabric feels noticeably softer against the skin compared to the usual synthetic stuff. It also breathes well, giving a better feel in comparison to the normal overheated clammy feel that other rashguards have.It isn’t restrictive and moves with you while your rolling, adding to how comfortable it is. Overall these tops feel more breathable, comfortable and sustainable in comparison to the typical synthetic rashguards. Will definitely be buying again :)

V1 – Natural-Fibre Hybrid Training Shirt

Such a comfortable and quality rashguard! Have put it through hard rounds and the wash a good amount of times and it’s holding up great

How many clean shirts
does your week need?

Think about your sessions and when you do the washing. Leave yourself a clean shirt for the next time you train.

A session every few days?

If you wash between sessions, one lets you start with V1.

Training on most days?

Two gives you another clean shirt while one is in the wash.

Double sessions or fewer wash days?

Count the clean changes you need before your next wash. Build your rotation around that.

Your questions, answered.

What makes V1 hybrid?

The way you use it and the way it's made. V1 is for running, gym training, contact and everyday wear. Its fabric combines bamboo viscose and organic cotton with elastane, bringing natural-fibre comfort and useful stretch together.

Why use elastane?

It adds stretch and helps the fabric recover its shape. The blend is 92% natural fibre and 8% elastane. Each part has a job; there is no polyester.

How should it fit?

V1 has a close compression fit. Check the size guide beside the size selectors before choosing. Your first Australian size exchange is free, both ways.

Back to sizes
Will it need washing after training?

Yes. V1's natural-fibre blend releases odour in the wash. That means washing is part of the benefit. Wash after training and rotate with a clean shirt for your next session.

Can I mix sizes in a pack?

Yes. Choose a size for each shirt. Two shirts save 10%; four shirts save 15%. Free standard shipping is included on AU orders A$150+. Standard shipping is A$10 below A$150. Express shipping is A$15 at every quantity.

Can I return it after wearing it?

Yes. You have 30 days from delivery to train in V1 and decide. If it isn't for you, request a return for a refund, even if it's worn. Your first Australian size exchange is free both ways.
