SmartWool Microweight Zip T-Shirt - Long-Sleeve - Men's

SmartWool Microweight Zip T-Shirt - Long-Sleeve - Men's description

Wear the SmartWool Men's Midweight Zip-T for stop-and-go aerobic activities or as a warm base layer. SmartWool's porous natural fibers move moisture while it's still in vapor form, so you remain dry and comfortable throughout your alpine foray. SmartWool fiber is highly adaptable to a broad range of condition. It keeps you warm when you rest and cool when your heart's pounding. This naturally odor-resistant shirt features a -length Zip-T collar for ventilation control. Flatlock-seam construction reduces chafing, and an active fit allows for bulk-free layering that doesn't inhibit your freedom of movement.

Great base-layer, I use it for cycling and skiing. I'm 6'4", 195 lbs., with especially long arms, but the Large fit fine. It's just a tad short in the arms (but longer than I expected) and nice and long through the mid-sections so it tucks in nicely. As others have posted, it doesn't get stanky at all. I've worn it 15-20 times now, have yet to wash it, and I can't smell a thing, nothing. Zipper is nice too. I only have a couple of minor complaints. 1) occasionally it feels slightly itchy, usually when I stop doing whatever I'm doing. I'm sensitive to other wool products, but this is not that bad at all. Once you generate a little perspiration, it seems to go away. 2) for a "mid-weight" layer, I thought it would be a bit thicker/warmer. These are minor complaints though as it's not that itchy and it is warm enough as a base-layer. Just make sure you have a nice warm mid-layer for skiing on those really cold days. These two minor complaints kept me from giving it 5 stars, but all in all, highly recommended.

This is a spectacular shirt for a mid-weight top. I have 2 Icebreaker shirts, light and a mid crew, this layer is in- between the weights and feels very smooth on the skin. I tried an Ibex top and this fit tighter and and had less itch. The fit is very form fitting but stretches well for a lightweight under it. We will see how durable it is since this is their (merino) weakness. The collar is also a perfect fit, and I am pickey. Get one now, merino rules w/ no plastic smell and no static!

I work 8 days on 6 days off, in the wilderness. This shirt is a great base layer when it is cold and a great single layer when it is warmer. It also does a really good job of keeping the stink at bay when wearing it for 8 days in a row. Good sun protection too. Overall great shirt and will buy another one.
