Awesome for high octane aerobic activities

By Rocky Mountain Goat Ranked #150 - Men's Shirts November 13, 2008

I bought this a couple of months ago and have used it now at least 2 times per week on my runs and several hikes. I'm 5'9" and 167 and the medium fits just right. First, I love the zip chest pocket...perfect for carrying some cash or credit card/ID. This thing fits very well and movement is natural without bunching. Sometimes on longer runs I have problems with my arm pits rubbing a little raw with tigher fit clothing but not with this. This is also very warm. I went running in about 50 degree weather and it was hot...the 1/4 zipper is very nice to vent. I went running in about 24 degree weather just recently and wore my Arc'Teryx seeker comp shell...it was almost too warm when I got going. The inside of this shirt is fleece like (I would say definitely more fleece like than micro-fleece...almost between light and mid loft fleece). I actually intend to use it as a heavy base or light midlayer when I go snowboarding or winter camping. Some people hate thumploops but I love them for running and snowboarding...it prevent the shirt from riding up and makes for a more tighter, sleek fit. The shirt also has some nice reflective trim that looks cool. I would have given this 5 stars but I wish the neck was tighter. When I zip all the way up, its not quite snug tight so I can imagine some wind getting in. This thing is not very wind resistant but breaths like crazy...

Thumbs up for high octane aerobic activities.
