Description

Dress appropriately.

You wouldn’t wear cotton boxers to swim in, just like you wouldn’t wear neoprene to ski in, so try what works best during aerobic activities in varying temps, and wear the Patagonia Men’s Capilene 3 Zip-Neck Top. This breathable, quick-drying, stretchy top retains heat while you sit at a belay station, and dumps heat when you unzip your jacket while skinning in the backcountry. Patagonia brushed the Capilene 3 Zip-Neck base layer and gave it flat-locked seams for comfort, compressibility, and easy layering.

I have worn this top skiing, hiking, camping, landscaping, and fishing year round in both the Upper Peninsula and Central Colorado. This is just the right weight for high activity level ventures as well as wearing around town under your favorite flannel. Im 6' 180 and prefer the large.

Very pleased with this product; gets it done outside and looks great for just hanging. Snatched it up for $30 so can't go wrong doe!

I wore this lightweight sweater to the peak of Mt. Baldy (10,064ft). It was windy and in below freezing temps at the summit. I got to admit, this sweater kept me a bit warm.

I have several of these - a few for the outdoors and a few for just hanging out around town or the house. They fit me perfectly, look great and are a nice balance of warmth and weight.

I am about 5'8" and 135 and bounce around a small and XS for Patagonia. I got a small because it is a slim fit, but is not compression. Fits well. The Length in torso is nice, Sleeves are a tad long. Zipper is nice and does not get caught on neck like some other pieces do. really like how seams are on top of arms and not in rubbing areas. Good weight, can use it as first layer or good second layer.

Comfortable, soft, non-restrictive, warm...what else are you looking for? Purchased for skiing and would do so again. The zip neck is a great feature. I personally like the loose fit as well. Not everybody feels good in tight clothing.

4 stars due to price but like anything else if you're willing to pay what they're asking then who are you to complain?

Capilene 3 is a thicker and warmer material. Capilene 2 is classified as "lightweight and more breathable" and is 4oz of polyester knit, whereas Capilene 3 is "more versatile" and 5.4 oz of polyster Polartec Powerdry according to Patagonia.

Patagonia hits another homerun with this lightweight but warm layering piece. Originally purchased for my upcoming trip to Ireland I have absolutely fallen in love with this piece. I used to purchase from patagonia occassionally but now given the choice, they are my go to brand for everything outdoors. If the product was not amazing enough, Patagonia's lifetime warranty gives the added piece of mind.

Couldn't be more pleased with the 3 Zip-Neck. The only caution is that the sleeves are a little longer than my arms. My arm length is a 32-33 in a more fitted, dress shirt and I found the sleeves were longer than my other/similar Capilene pullovers.

Patagonia makes some fantastic baselayers in the Capilene 1,2,3 and 4 versions. This is the midweight zip version and is a comfortable shirt to wear, looks good and does a great job of wicking moisture. The zipper is a nice option to vent if you start getting a little warm. I have noticed a significant difference in warmth between this shirt and the Capilene 1 and 2.

Patagonia considers this a slim fit but I think of it more as an athletic fit, fits snug but not tight. It is not compression fit like some other baselayers.

In most conditions, this baselayer and a vest under a good shell is a great combination.

This Cap 3 zip neck by Patagonia is a great baselayer for winter outdoor activites......match this with a fleece midlayer and a goretex shell and you are bomb proof. This piece of clothing is also multifunctional, because it fits so well, it can used as "barwear" when you are at the bar after a day on the slopes.........

I love the cut of this shirt. I'm about 6'3" 195 lbs and i bought a medium, which fits great around the torso, but the arms could probably be another half inch longer to be perfect. So far I've only taken it on day hikes, but I hit Old Rag Mountain in ~60 degree temps and it was a bit warm for the occasion. My only knock is it does retain odors quite a bit, but I think thats pretty standard for poly, so I'm ready to stink when it comes to it.
