I wouldn't recommend this for a baselayer. This shirt is very thin and wick moisture well but it doesn't perform like the top notch baselayers.

It really depends upon what you mean by insulation. Really, this is just a thin baselayer that will trap just a little bit of heat if something is worn on top of it. It breathes and wicks very well, and works very well under clothing that does provide insulation (such as a fleece midlayer or--on warmer days--even a softshell). By itself, though, it provides little warmth.
