Comfortable. Fast-drying. I haven't experienced the snagging problem that SprintMV mentioned. I'll buy more of these.

The Wicked Tech shirt is one of the best wicking and most breathable shirts in my closet. The fit is fairly baggy and loose, so if you are often between sizes, I'd recommend getting the smaller size. The fabric is soft and has a nice ability to stretch. While the shirt owes its amazing breathability and wicking ability to its construction, it has a tendency to catch on things easily resulting in small snags hanging off. Because of this, I would not recommend it for any activity in which the shirt will make contact with rough surfaces such as rock climbing. However, if you don't mind snags hanging off your shirt or are inclined to be extra careful when wearing it, this is a great shirt for the price.

I recently bought three wicking t-shirts here: this, a north face and an icebreaker. This works just as well as those two despite costing less. If you let it dry on you, you will be chilly, but take it off for about an hour and it will be dry. It's loose fitting and very soft, leading to a very comfortable feeling. You will not regret buying this shirt. Others have commented about pilling and snagging, but I have yet to experience that - it looks as good today as it did when I got it. Be sure to NOT use fabric softener with wicking t-shirts in a dryer as the fabric softener will coat the t-shirt and interfere with the wicking.

The Mountain Hardware Wicked Tech T-Shirt lives up to its name, whether I am cutting grass, ripping single track, or hiking.....just being outdoors when the weather turns hot it truly is "wicked" - as in wicked cool. The loose fit is just right and it has great wicking performance and dries fast as well. A great all rounder, base layer, or single layer....you just can't go wrong. I have 5 of them now and #6 is on the way.
cheers.

I have bought several of these for my boyfriend and my dad. This shirt does a great job wicking away sweat and it dries quickly. My boyfriend does intense workouts in these and remains drier! They look great too! My only concern is that they are easily ruined if they snag on something-the material pills and is no longer uniform and after having that occur several times, the shirt no longer looks as nice (it still works functionally though!).

Great performance shirt. Does all the things you want a synthetic to do. I don't seem to have the picking/pilling problems that some others do. Looks great and does what I want it to. I'll be adding more to my closet.

I just bought my first Mountain Hardwear Wicked Tech T-shirts and I am very happy with them. They are perfect! They WILL snag at some point, but that will not take away from its performance. Very glad to have purchased these shirts.

Spent a week with this shirt in the boundary waters in Northen MN. Despite temps in the mid 80s during the day I never felt wet despite sweating profusely during several long portages with canoe & gear. The fabric does "snag" fairly easily but who cares when you're out in the wilderness!

I run the heck out of this thing. Mesh tops always seem itchy to me but not this one it's soft a silk.

I really like this shirt. I use this shirt on the trails and haven't had any problems. It's lightweight, provides great wicking and it looks good.

I have several of these- I road & trail run, bike, hike & backpack in the AZ desert. This shirt feels great and gets the job done.
The snagability factor will be applicable when I start wearing it to the opera.

I'm not sure what went wrong in the Mountain Hardwear R&D division cause they started with a light fabric that breathes well and is comfortable but that's about all this shirt has going for it. The fabric is very susceptible to snags, more so than any performance tee I've ever owned. The sizing needs help - I got an XL and it's about the width of a XXL and the length of a L. I may wear this shirt at last resort but I think it will endure a lifetime at the bottom of my performance tee stack until I find someone to give it away to (my brother in law most likely). Bummer.

The comfort level is awesome with this T. It's extremely light and does not intrude. I do agree with another review regarding its durability. If you trail run you're going to snag early and often. If you stay out of the woods then you'll be fine. However, the snags only build character.

This is a great shirt for running in hot weather. I stay cool and comfortable - with no chaffing. Seems to be sturdy enough from what I've done.
Other reviewers have said that it stays odor free - I disagree. After just a short run it stinks badly - plus there is a chemical smell that it exudes whether clean or dirty.

This shirt is perfect for those hot trail runs. Breathes nicely, and you really stay dry wearing this shirt.

I love this shirt. Its very lightweight, and wicks moisture with the best of them. This shirt has held up very well to many miles on the trail. The seams don't irritate my shoulders under a heavy backpack and it rides up very little. The only downside is that you have to slow down when people ask you were you got it.

Ok, so I live and hike in florida and during June and July it is Hot and Humid.
So I bought this shirt thinking it would be a good thing for the heat and humidity. It really was!!
It wicks and dries quickly, is extremeley comfortable to wear and looks good too.
It does snag easily but that is a small thing compared to the way it performs.
A must have shirt for the heat!!

I wear this Mountain Hardwear tech tee for mountain biking, trail running, and as a base layer for skiing in the winter. Simple and it works.

Nice, lightweight material, but it is too delicate for my appetite. Snags on everything. I would look for a different shirt if you are hard on your shirts.

Very comfortable and cool - don't even know it's on. Hasn't snagged yet. Love wearing it for hiking. Dries right away and keeps me cool.

I own a few of these shirts in various colors and really appreciate the breathability of the material. The fit is perfect and the shirt is very comfortable. The material dries very quickly which is another added bonus. It does however get snags on the material which can cause runs or holes in the shirt.

The shirt I bought for a backpacking trip worked well. It did snag in a few places, but like someone else said, the snag doesn't grow. The shirt dries very fast and feels good on the skin when you are sweating.

This shirt is great for when the temperature and humidity starts to rise. It does snag a little easier than I'd like, but nothing’s perfect.

The shirt is comfy and good for activities, but something about the fabric causes it to constantly pull threads and get runs and such. The first time I ran it through the wash it looked like an old sweater with all of the pulls and pilling. Not what I had hoped for from Mountain Hardwear.

I got one of these from the discount section. I couldn't be more pleased. While the pattern seems to work well for moving sweat away from your body, it won't win any beauty contests.

This tee shirt rocks, it breathes like a champ, dries quickly, doesn’t hold odor and retains a great shape. It does snag easily and the colors could be revamped but I own 5 and am very, very happy with them.

This is a great performance tee. Provides comfort on those hot days and wicks away the sweat. Like other reviews, this tee pills easily. Avoid sharp branches and other things that can snag.

This wicking T-Shirt is my favorite out of various brands. It feels heavy enough without being too heavy. Nice quality fabric wicks well, keeps you very dry. The only down to this is their lack of a variety of colors.

I work for backcountry.com and I have a good number of shirts similar to this one. I did the wonderland trail around Mt. Rainier this summer and I bought 3 of these shirts specifically for this trip. So light, so wicking, so easy to clean and they dry so fast. Good colors, and they put out new colors every year so you can mix it up. I highly recommend this shirt. One note: they snag a little easy but the snag doesn't spread, the chipmunks, marmots, mountain goats, bear, and the rest of the wild animals don't give a care, why should you? I'll take comfort and function over looking good any day. Don't get me wrong, they are definitely tough enough unless you're gonna be rubbing against rocks or trees all day

This shirt is incredibly comfortable and cool in warm weather, and also makes a great wicking base-layer. Like wearing air. But its high-tech fabric snags incredibly easily (even truer of Golite's C-thru fabric). Just brushing against twigs or leaning against a rough surface pulls out its very fine threads leaving them dangling and frayed. If you're willing to treat this shirt gently, you'll love it.

I live in Florida and this is a great shirt to keep you cool and comfy in the wicked Florida heat. Nice feel to the material and good looking. I have three of them and love them.
