wore it a month ago for 2 days of skiing, it was about 20 degrees F each day. the shirt was warm enough for me, it was a snug fit. Not itchy, wicks away moisture pretty well. After all day skiing, the shirt was dry on the front, and the back was a little wet. Stitching is excellent.
small and itchy

I get it with a very good discount from backcountry, merino wool is very light and breathable. The look of the shirt is really nice, a little thinner than I was expecting but it is not and issue. Good cost benefit
Not as good as Icebreaker - why same $ ?

I'm disappointed that the Stoic stuff (weird colors and all) are now being priced on par with Icebreaker clothing (both are $79 for 200 weight). They are not equivalent. For one thing, the stitching on Stoic stuff is clearly inferior. I remember when Backcountry brand stuff was shooting for similar quality at a noticeably lower price. Seems those days are over. I'll stick with Icebreaker and their higher quality product.
Excellent, wish it was thicker

Merino wool over synthetic for a long sleeve is the only way to go. The only problem is that it seems to be the same thickness as their Stoic Merino T-Shirts. I would like to see the long sleeve a bit thicker.

The previous backcountry.com Merinos were made of a finer Merino. I still own some of them and they are definitely superior. These new stoics are more rash to the touch, because they obviously use coarser thread. If the current ones are indeed 17.5 micron, then the older ones must have been sub 17 micron. I suppose because of cost cutting backcountry went for cheaper materials, a sad thing in my opinion.Still, these stoics are nice and warm enough if you get the right weight for your activity.
Nice base layer

This is my first time trying Merino wool. I was expecting it to be thicker (not having anything to judge 200 weight by, previously). Seems to be good quality, though.
Thumb holes are awesome when pulling on the next layer and the extra length in the arms provides nice additional coverage onto your hands...but the extra arm length can be ackward at times. Not a deal breaker, by any means, though!
Seems best suited for base layer during aerobic activities, due to breathability (little to no wind protection) and thinness. Also, good for sleeping in. I wore it every night to bed for a week straight and it didn't even start to stink. It was very comfortable, too! Every once in awhile you feel a slight roughness or poke, but I like that natural feel about it. Not itchy.
Ordered 2, but will probably send the second one back, just because I need something thicker, most of the time.

Wore this shirt a few weeks ago on the AT. Preformed great. Kept me warm hiking in 35 plus degree weather. Drys fast enough to wear as a base layer for sleeping at night as well. Thumb holes are cool also. Keeps hand Warmers nice and snug in your hands.
Perfect!

After buying a couple of these for baselayers I find myself wanting to live in them! The more you wash it the softer it gets (it does suggest to wash often). This is the most comfortable and warm baselayer I have tried out, and the thumbholes make it even that much better. I will be purchasing more! It wicks away the moisture and coming from a guy who sweats A LOT it stays dry and stink free! Stoic nailed it on this one!

I bought two of these because I was in need or a few more long sleeve merinos for winter biking. I must say that I don't find these to be soft, but rather a bit scratchy, though I've only washed them two or three times so far.
The thumb holes were a surprise and have been well liked.
They are warm, though they don't feel 200 weight, they feel slightly thinner.

I wash it cold on a delicate cycle with mild detergent and hang dry. It suggests using Nikwax wool wash, but I haven't used it. It can also be washed in a sink with hand soap in a pinch.

I wash mine in cold water with woolite and then hang them on a drying rack.

Got this as a gift and couldn't be happier. Soft, warm, pulls moisture off the body. I've worn it running by itself, and as a long sleeve baselayer skiing. I get hot with aerobic activity and this thing blew away my smartwool shirt I was using.
great Wool longsleeve

Member since
Have to say, I was skeptical at first, but the more I wear it, the more I like it. It is a lot thinner than you might expect, but still insulates and layers great, and its pretty soft after the first few wears. The fit is great, I bought a medium, and wear a medium, nice slim look. With the added benefit of thumb holes, you can't go wrong with this shirt. I'm going to definitely be back for more Stoic gear.
Good Quality Warmth!

I have been searching for a nice looking well designed long underwear top and bottom out of wool and By Golly, I think I've Found It! I have also used it as a semi-exposed undergarment at formal occasions. Great Cut, Good Design! Now this is what the garment industry should really be all about!
