Does this shirt fit similar to bodyfit or more like the inca? I have a couple superfine shirts that are 140 weight from a few years ago and I would like to replace them. I find that the bodyfit styles are too snug for casual wear and better for a baselayer, however the older 140 weight shirts I can wear around more casually.

I have a short sleeve version of this and it is significantly longer in the body and slightly less athletically cut than the BodyFit shirts I have and worlds more civilian friendly than the GT line. It's much more like a standard t-shirt cut IMO, albeit still somewhat trim fitting. Edit: I did wind up getting one of these and it seemed to be cut strangely different than the short sleeve. It looked fine from a modesty perspective, had plenty of length in the sleeves and enough in the torso when at rest but the armpits were very low and the ribcage just below the sleeves seemed very narrow. This caused a binding feeling across the back of the shoulders and made the waist lift up about 3-4" when lifting my elbows even w/ my shoulders. I'd try a XXL but I'm pretty sure the sleeves would be way too long and there'd be a lot of unwanted baggyness. Kinda bummed as I can't seem to find a relaxed cut long sleeve ultra light merino crew neck that fits decently and isn't some weird color combo. The Stoic ones are just about perfect but their colorway designers seem to have gone color blind over the past few seasons IMO.
