Sharp Dressed Man: Sleek by Virtu Highly Recommended by Whom You Know!!!

With sides that allow you to breathe, Sleek allows you to cool off quickly when you are working up a sweat.

Made in Manhattan
Made With: 80% Nylon 20% Spandex
Sizes: Small, Medium, Large, Extra Large

Peachy Deegan put the Sharp Dressed Men to work up a sweat with Virtu, and they say:

Virtu’s “Sleek” design shirt is way cool. It puts Nike Dry Fit in the back seat. The quality of material on this tank top is second to none. A spandex feel on the outside, but when you wear it, it 100% doesn’t feel constricting nor sticky when you start sweating. I wore this under a sweatshirt, because I am not quite in the mindset to wear a straight tank top at the gym right now after my post summer couch commitments to start the football season. The design is awesome. I had the black and white design. The shirt is extremely comfortable and it actually would be great to wear at the beach, pool or any other leisure outdoor activities. While I can see some of the Jersey Shore cast wearing a Virtu “sleek” tank top, I also think they are appropriate in other less outrageous scenes and settings that appeal to the Whom You Know crowd. I can just tell by the quality and feel of the fabric used that Virtu didn’t cut any corners with this product.

My gut is that Virtu will be a major player in the athletic attire wear in the very near future.

Well done Virtu, well done!!!

Virtu has come up with an awesome design for its Sleek model! The white mesh on the side offers premium breathability while the predominantly black front and back panels flatter the figure. If you're in good shape, this makes you look even better. This is great for running, and is a great top for exercising in warm weather outside. I have been wearing it to the gym in Manhattan because unfortunately we don't have warm weather here now. Wearing this Sleek by Virtu transports me to a feeling of Southern California, running down the beach with my ipod, however in reality I am running in the park with my ipod in chilly Manhattan, but thank goodness I have the fabulous Swany gloves to wear to keep warm and still operate the ipod. Similar to some of the Nike designs, this is just as good if not better, and before I learned of Virtu I only wore Nike. This supersedes Nike because of its ability to truly form to your body and its durability. I am pleased to know that this line is at Bloomingdale's so I can check out the other items by Virtu to match the Sleek top!

I just ran my second ever road race today and I did it wearing the Virtu Sleek shirt. It fit great and looked even better, its nice sleek lines making me look like much more of a runner than I really am. Let's face it, if you look good running then it doesn't matter how slow you ran! What I like most of all was the way it wicked the sweat away. I know that sounds like lame tag line or feature that other brands claim but Virtu Sleek shirt, made of a nylon spandex mix, really does wick sweat away. I am a sweater when I work out and if it is cold outside that sweat gets me awfully tight real quick. Today was a perfect test, it was 55 degrees and windy. I wasn't running under the what I'd consider the ideal conditions; it was way cooler than I like. I'd much rather work out in 80+ degrees, when the sweat helps to cool your body without chilling you to the core. The 55 degree weather today had all the potential of doing just that, but this shirt pulled the sweat away from my body. As a result, it kept me warmer than than other brands that make claims of mositure wicking. I didn't win the race today, but I felt great and found a new line of workout clothes. These days, when I work out for fun or for my health instead of as a profession, I'm much more concerned with how I look and feel while working out. This Virtu line is the perfect fit for my workout needs.

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
